DESCRIPTION
Social Media is fast becoming part of every business, and employees often rank highest in terms of credibility on social media. But how do companies embrace and empower employees as brand advocates on social? We cover the five key areas for employee activation and engagement in social media: governance, processes, training, tools and measurement. For more on employee social media training, see http://dell.to/1g3aGCQ and http://dell.to/1clKdVJ and view the video http://dell.to/1gLsX9v.

Employee Landscape is Changing
Employee attitudes can
affect customer satisfaction up to 80%
(National Business Research Institute,
2012)
69% of US employees are
actively disengaged (Gallup, 2012)
Only 37% of employees
understand their company’s
vision (Stephen Covey, The
8th Habit)
More employees are remote –
50% of jobs are compatible with part-time work
from home (Global Workplace
Analytics, 2012)

Social media will make your Employees better at their jobs
Harvard Business Review weighs in
• The most expensive employees spend:
– 28% of their time reading/replying to emails
– 19% of their time tracking down information
– 14% of their time collaborating with co-workers
• Social media could represent a 20-25% increase in efficiency in these activities
• “Dig out the dark matter”
– High-value knowledge is hidden in oral traditions or buried on hard drives
