The Right Media for the Message – Hot Off the Press!Although social media gets the most media attention and is an emerging trend, the most prevalent means of communications continue to be things such as e-mail, intranet and staff meetings; however, while employees have a keen interest in job security, 24 percent of companies provide no information on this topic.

Trust Leading Practices
1.) An e-Collaboration Leader Demonstrates Trust:
Authentic Voice (Uses own voice, informal tone, simple language).Transparency/Openness (Nothing hidden, uses facts).Reputation (Credible voice, influence, subject expertise).
Example: A Blogger in Sales creates a loyal following.A Sales Manager who consistently exceeds their target begins a blog on Winning Sales Account Management Tactics, and quickly develops aglobal sales following as the tips and techniques are simple, reliable, and proven.She openly shares what she does every day as her blog is written as a story of a day in her life in account sales. She is informally mentoring her colleagues - a proven practice for building rapid trust and the voice is authentic – the real deal!
Example: Acknowledging Contributions An employee participates in an online discussion forum, and reinforces a point of view that was initiated by another colleague but does not acknowledge the origin of the insight. This type of behavior is not transparent and does not build a positive reputation.

• Social Media marketing is NOT free. • Budget for social media in terms of staff time, not media spend.• Social Media is NOT just for the kids.
Social Media Workers More Likely to be High-Level Employees
•High-level executives are more likely to be active in social media than not •making that time more costly.
•Young staff may not have the experience to be leaders in social spaces.

I do this in addition to my defined role,willingly on my own initiative.

I participate in social media "on theside," collecting additional money.
Social media is all I do, and I am paidspecifically to do it.

• Loosely coupled networks facilitate networking and knowledge sharing
• Real-time collaboration across organizational & geographic boundaries
Improves Employee Engagement
• Enables real-time information management and access
• Information rankings based on relevance and usability

There are risks
Collaboration & Social Media is not properly
governed or too tightly governed.
Too Much Policy• Expectations of younger
workforce supports transparency, ‘real-time’ accessibility, less control
• Adoption buy-in difficult to achieve with too many ‘rules’
• Discourages e-Collaboration use, hence, business value realization
Example: A global publisher spent millions on an e-Collaboration environment that no one used because of restrictions on activity (control through designated leads) and lengthy policy documents. They subsequently removed restrictions and went lite on policies. Result was wider e-Collaboration adoption and the rise of online global communities with Marketing leading the way.

Finding the right balance is
key Too Little Policy
• Abuse/Misuse
• No guidance on appropriate behavior and correction
• Inappropriate behavior finds way outside of RIM ‘s firewall (employee activity during off-work hours)
