Editor's Notes

- #5 Beth’s Cowboy Hat Photo: Screen capture of blog –w/ScholarZoetica Logo
- #6 WhoHow many organizations are not yet using social media, just getting started, have a strategy in place – using effectively or not?
- #7 Beth: In the spirit of one of the themes in the book – transparency – we thought we’d to let you know that …-This is the second time that we have been in the same room, face-to-face together-We’ve never presented together-This is the first time we’re talking about the book together in public-We have different styles of presenting and writingAnd on that note, we thought we’d start by opening the Kimono on our collaborative process …http://www.flickr.com/photos/24443965@N08/2370695472/in/set-72157606981810690/
- #8 Our writing processes were very different …Beth is an expository writer, Allison prefers narrativeTranslation: Beth likes to start the writing process with a conceptual framework and outline. Allison likes to start writing! http://www.flickr.com/photos/svandermark/184667652/
- #9 Pictures me, WordsOur brains work differently …Beth is a visual thinker. Allison is a wordsmithTranslation: Beth could spend hours drawing charts, graphs, and visuals to come up with the ideas and concepts. Allison could spent hours writing and refining one sentence.http://www.flickr.com/photos/slipstreamblue/2615935449/
- #10 Beth prefers the voice of helpful guide. Allison likes colorful language.Translation: Beth says some of Allison’s sentences are too snarky and wants to change! Allison says some of Beth’s sentences are boring and wants to change!

- #17 In the book, we tell the story about the American Red Cross and how beginning with listening had an unanticipated outcome – it helped demonstrate the value of social media and lead to a shift to a social culture.I have been honored to have the opportunity to presentwith and learn from Wendy Harman who works at the Red Cross. As an early adopter of social media shortly, we can take a look back and see the arc of this transition to a more social culture. Let’s take a quick look at that ….
- #20 Fast forward to 2009, and the Red Cross, knows that in order to have more impact, they need to scale. They wanted to go beyond having social media be a silo in the communications department, and they realized the value of employees, volunteers, affiliates being ambassadors for them on social networks/social media. They worked on a social media policy, guidelines and an operational manual so that anyone working in affiliates were encouraged to do so and equipped with best practices to do it. The overall policy is encouraging, not controlling. The operational handbook gives them specific steps, examples, and tips for being effective.
- #21 In early 2010, I started to notice social media as part of program delivery – continuing evidence of a social culture.
- #22 Organizational culture is the psychology, attitudes, and experiences and beliefs of the people who lead organizations. Culture impactsUse social media to engage people inside and outside the organization to improve programs, services, or reach communications goals. Embrace mistakes and take calculated risksReward learning and reflectionUse a “try it and fix it as we go” approach that emphasizes failing fastOvercomes organizational innertiaUnderstand and appreciate informality and individuality do not necessarily indicate a lack of professionalism and caring.Trust staff to make decisions and respond rapidly rather than craw through endless check-ins and approval processes
- #23 The established and traditional ways of working are centralized, firmly controlled, planned, properitary, and one-way communication.
- #24 Decentralized, loosely controlled, emergent, public, two-way conversation

- #27 Rewards learning and reflectionTry it and fix it approach – fail fastAppreciates individuality and that does not indicate a lack of professionalism or caringTrusts staff to make decisions and respond rapidly
- #28 http://www.flickr.com/photos/uncorneredmarket/370672187/Examining contingency plans, worst case scenarios – having that conversation and building it into their policy and operational guides.
- #29 There is also a need to describe your social media strategy in terms of the value – how it will help you reach your goals. Many leaders are “yellow thinkers” – that is they need to see the results laid out in advance before they will say.Pre-school California – there is also a conversation about value – and that happens by connecting social media strategy to communications objectives.
