Storm Clouds

 “The National Doppler Radar System has indicated that local conditions are right to produce

severe weather. High winds, damaging hail, and

flash floods are likely products of this storm.

Seek immediate shelter moving away from doors and windows.”

Social Media Generating the perfect management storm

 “The CMO Alert System has indicated that conditions are right to

produce severe leadership team turbulence. High stress, damaging assumptions, and flash flood buzz

words are likely elements of your next management meeting.

Seek cross-team social media education support immediately.”

Chief Executive Officer

Social Media Sparks Interesting Management Conversations

CEO: I hear about social media all the time now; but does Wall Street really care if we get social? I thought this would only involve your PR department. What’s our competition doing?

Chief Financial Officer

CFO: Are we talking about decreasing expenses or increasing revenues with this strategy? On a side note; my kids told me that Twitter and Facebook are free … that’s great, no cost!

Chief Human Resources Officer

HR: Are we going to allow all employees access? If so, what will that do to productivity? Are we also going to use this for recruiting?

Chief Information Officer

CIO: What about network security? By the way, we can’t allow everyone to be downloading all these new untested desktop social applications. And don’t even get me going about the mobile device angle.

Corporate Legal Counsel

Legal: I’ll need to consider our risk and exposure. Now, who did you say was going to be blogging and tweeting?

Chief Sales Officer

Sales: Are we using this to generate sales leads or is it about customer service? If it’s about leads, will the quality be any good? Should sales really be involved with this stuff? How does this impact my call center?

Strategy – Technology – ProcessesDo you still think it sounds like a job for an intern?

Mindset ListWhat does the word “tablet” mean to you?

#1 Be a lifelong learner.

Mindset List#2 Treat yourself like a brand.
