He will look at some of the reasons behind the exponential growth in activity as well as the tools and clients being used both within and outside IBM.

When Social Media Poses a Threat to Your Business.Two employe.docxalanfhall8953
When Social Media Poses a Threat to Your Business.
Two employees decide to go on to Facebook to make remarks about the way they are being treated by their employer of multiple years. The company offers them full benefits, insurance and all the bells and whistles any employee can imagine. They usually just laugh off their angry supervisor’s behavior but this particular day they were fed up and ready to vent to the world of social media. Since Facebook has an app for mobile devises once the comments are made the buzz spreads like a wildfire. It began just in their building and later to the next building over and soon all five offices of the corporate sector had begun talking. With only 2 hours to go until the close of the day the employees had been called into the office released, stripped of their badges and immediately escorted of sight by security.
Why does this happen why do people feel the need to vent their valid however more than not temporary feelings? What could the employees have done to avoid getting fired? How could the supervisor have handled the situation to prevent the employees from making those remarks on Facebook? Is this a matter of freedom of speech or common sense? The bottom line is social has become a double edged sword for businesses because of issues like this very fictional scenario.
According to the Article “Employee Use & Abuse of Social Media’ until 2011 the National Labor Relations Board would too terminate the two employees from the scenario above until closer consideration was taken and the NLRB began actively pursuing and litigating instances where employees were terminated for making postings critical of their employers in social media in violation of the NLRA (Polid). In fact they found that an employee’s rights were terminated for blogging about their supervisor and settled. The NLRB basically decided that remarks made online are not grounds for firing unless the threat of verbal or physical violence is present.
Another concern is the time employees’ are spending online during business hours. Employees are spending a lot of time online as I myself see so many postings during business hours in fact the bulk of my news feed occurs from Nine to five. Should it be a crime to be stealing time from your employer? Where does Integrity and common sense come in? I believe these are just a few of social media’s threats to business’s.

GUUG FFG 2017 - DevOps for Everybody - A Workplace Strategy for the Digital AgeSchlomo Schapiro
How should our internal IT look in order to be a driving force for a company’s success in the digital age? This proposal is based on all my learnings from the previous 15 years and especially the Agile and DevOps revolution in IT. It takes the concept of a Product Development Organization to apply everywhere and provides a sure path to increase productivity and improve culture through technology. Transforming Corporate IT into a Workplace product takes internal IT out of the proverbial basement and puts it in the front of the internal value chain. Most of the standard tooling for product development also fits the Workplace product. This proposal is written for a typical company that employs both modern web technologies like G Suite and cloud services as well as traditional technologies like Microsoft Office and data centers.

Solving Today's HR, Communication & Leadership Challenges With Microsoft 365 ...Richard Harbridge
Microsoft 365 Intranets are capable of a lot more than just getting key corporate messaging out.
Internal Communications leaders have shifted from editors to enablers. With that shift comes a change from enforcing messaging to empowering and amplifying excellent communications and great ideas throughout the business. From preboarding to offboarding, HR's challenges are harder today than they have ever been before. Naturally, how these leaders leverage the digital workplace has changed as well, especially in how they leverage technology to achieve more with less.
Join our Product Offering Lead, Anders Fagerlund, and the CTO of 2toLead, Richard Harbridge, a Microsoft MVP and internationally recognized expert on Microsoft 365 and the Digital Workplace. This webinar will explore ideas and solutions that HR and Corporate Communications have embraced to improve how, where, and when they engage with employees.
We will discuss:
How to best leverage SharePoint, Microsoft Teams, and Yammer for modern communications.
How to take advantage of AI and Microsoft technology to accelerate and improve key communication and content.
Microsoft Intranet's best practices and approach that can make all the difference.
There will also be a short Q&A session at the end of the webinar.
Target audience
This event is primarily aimed at roles like CIO, CCO, CTO, Digital Workplace or Intranet Managers or similar roles within organizations planning to improve their digital workplace based on Microsoft technology.

The Benefits of Enterprise Social for IT ProfessionalsMicrosoft
The world has become a giant network, transformed by the
growth of mobile devices and social technologies. In fact,
there are now more devices than people.1 This networked
world is clearly evident in our personal lives: We keep in
touch with our friends and family on Facebook or Instagram,
use Twitter to get the latest news from people around the
globe, and often find our next career opportunity with
LinkedIn. In this networked world, people connect with each
other easily, information and knowledge move faster, and we
are able to accomplish more by working together.

Improving employee engagement and performance through social analytics sada...N. Sadat Shami
The use of social media in the workplace is growing. One anticipates this trend to continue as more and more individuals comfortable with social media join the workforce. Social media provides an opportunity for organizations to obtain a real-time understanding of various aspects of the employee experience. For organizations to truly benefit from this aspect of social media, there is a need to build tools that allow an organization to make sense of the large scale unstructured data generated by social media. In this talk, I will first introduce a tool named Social Pulse that enables an organization to understand the social media chatter and sentiment of its employees. Social Pulse provides text and sentiment analysis, search and filtering, and several visualization features while respecting employee data privacy. I will then discuss how the data generated through Social Pulse can lead to insights that can improve outcomes of interest to an organization, such as employee engagement and performance.
Making an intranet or parts of it available on mobile involves much more than just making it “responsive”. “Mobile” enables communicators to reach new non-desk audiences, but also creates previously unknown technical and practical challenges as a consequence.
