Getting colleagues involved

Our management approach

1. A light governance structure, since this is still a professional task= internal network of colleagues

2. Procedures for workflow and engagement & feedback= same as for web & traditional media

3. Instil a culture of learning – informal meetings, exchange best practice..= internal workshops + encouragement to experiment

4. A scalable formation with a central hub= a dedicated team in the Comms unit working with all other units.

Online reputation

= same principle as offline reputation= a matter that concerns everybody= an opportunity, not a problem
