“Blog Smart” – this is a blogging policy at Microsoft.
In their “Human Resources 2.0” study, Birkman announced that a clear majority of respondents (69%) indicated that their organizations don’t have an official social media and/or social computing policy. That being said, when asked about how they plan to increase or decrease Web 2.0 technologies, 64% plan to create content and publish it on social channels, and 57% plan to spend more time maintaining a profile in a social or professional network.
As more and more companies are trying to leverage social media, and as majority of employees already have a social profile, it is necessary to set some expectations and even boundaries for your employees.
Majority of the companies create two policies:
· First policy sets the expectations and boundaries for all employees, including a list of guidelines for the use of social media for personal use.
· Second policy is the set of guidelines for employees whose job function includes working on social media sites.
Key Points:
Since your employees are likely to use social media as brand ambassadors, and will do so representing your company, you have to clearly explain where the boundaries, while still empowering them to be creative. Lastly, get a buy in from your employees, and make sure they understand the policy and what it means.
