2. Media design to be disseminated through social
interaction, created using highly accessible and
scalable publishing techniques
Media: beyond text, No limits... photos, videos, audio
Dissemination: Far wider network, far greater speed
Accessible & Scalable: anyone can create, distribute

3. Internet: most significant development in human
communication & interaction
People no longer satisfied with being passive consumers
4 out 5 internet users visit social networks
% of time spent on social media sites on the internet
Pieces of content shared daily on Facebook (2010: 1.5
million, 2012: 8 billion)

4. 2012 was the year for workforce
innovation, with more companies
experimenting with using social
media to brand and market their
organizations.
In 2013, companies will take social
further: this will be the year of Social
HR, with organizations integrating
social technologies into the way they
recruit, develop & engage employees

5. 1. „Gamification‟ becomes a standard practice
2. The Death of the Resume
3. Your „Klout Score‟ will become a measurable
currency
4. Personal Branding will be a required skill
5. Recruiters will find you before you know you are
looking for a job

6. 1. Engagement: Employees share their achievements,
recognitions on social media…is a huge motivator
2. Recruitment: Traditional resume replaced by personal
brand…different kind of „homework‟ before interview
3. Influence is a currency of social web, „Klout‟ is the standard
measure…„what‟s your influence‟…Are HR folks aware?
4. Personal Branding…differentiated value proposition: high IQ
or EQ? shift from a „knowledge economy‟ to „social economy‟
5. Head Start on Head Hunting: Some start-ups (Entelo,
TalentBin) are helping companies find eligible applicants
…scanning social networks, who all have updated CVs etc
