The document discusses social media policies in the workplace. It begins by posing the question of whether social media content belongs to the institution or employee. It then notes that while social media is beneficial for businesses, employees sometimes use it in ways that harm the employer like publishing proprietary information. The solution proposed is for companies to have clear social media policies governing personal use on company time and compliance with other policies. However, the National Labor Relations Board has ruled that companies cannot control employees' personal accounts or prohibit legal complaints. A good social media policy needs to balance employer interests with worker rights.
How can you adequately mitigate risk and regulatory concerns while ensuring your employees understand the policy? What about outlining workflow and escalation processes that are understandable and thorough? What do the best in class companies do when multiple employees are using social media on behalf of the brand? Join us for some highlights, lowlights, brand examples and fantastic discussion around social media policies & procedures. We promise, it won’t be boring.

· Making connections that engage your audience and enable an ongoing dialog, and
· Using email and social media to build connections and engage a broader audience.

Habits 4, 5 and 6 are about people and relationships. The will move you from independence to interdependence. Such, cooperating to achieve more than you could have by yourself.
The last habit, habit number 7, focuses on continuous growth and improvement.
