The Social Enterprise
• What is the place, if any, of Social Media in the Enterprise?– Vocabulary:
• Social Media – Twitter, Facebook, blogs, podcasts, video… online and offline interaction by community.
• Enterprise – big honking corporations and little mom and pop shops. The bigger the enterprise, the more difficult the endeavor.
Enterprise Social Media Report Card Last Year
The Social Enterprise
• Getting Social in the Enterprise• Awareness – recognizing that something
is going on.• Acceptance – determining that maybe we
should look into it.• Adoption – Lets try something, and wreck
the hell out of it.• Adaptation – Lets finally figure out what’s
going on and make it a valuable business tool. Adaptation, btw, is enterprise to us.

• Pretty hard to miss – YouTube anyone?• LinkedIn opened the door for many
business professionals – a gateway drug of sorts.

The Social Enterprise: Adoption, Adaptation

The Social Enterprise

Internal

The Approach
• Did you notice how each Facebook Approach was different?– User page– Group– Business Page
Blogs, Video, Podcasts, etc.
• MUCH more difficult for enterprise, but it’s getting done…– Blogs are only used if you can be
HONEST with your users.– Podcasts reach 11%, and it better be
entertaining.– Video… Any fool can do it, and the
stupider the better.
Who Watches This Crap?
