O A passive expectation of transparency is becoming an active insistence on involvement
O Co-creation of communications creates consent internally and credibility externally
O Consultation creates an anticipation of participation
O Setting expectations and understanding emotions will help ensure the best results
![Page 24: Digital and social media across Asia-Pacific markets](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042714/554dbfd9b4c905c7488b4c6b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
O ‘You are important to us’
O ‘We need your opinions to help inform our actions’
O ‘We are listening to you…’ but will you be heard?
![Page 25: Digital and social media across Asia-Pacific markets](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042714/554dbfd9b4c905c7488b4c6b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
“Make the other
person feel important
and do it sincerely”
Fundamentally – for better or worse –
this is what effective communication demands
![Page 26: Digital and social media across Asia-Pacific markets](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042714/554dbfd9b4c905c7488b4c6b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
O Whether or not there is listening, of course social media
increases the demand to be heard, regardless of merit
O [Ironic that those demanding to be heard can often seem
least interested in listening!]
O ‘Me’ and ‘I’ narcissism, lack of attention span, rampant
impatience, toxic anger and abuse abounds
O Crowdsourcing intelligence versus mob rule?
![Page 27: Digital and social media across Asia-Pacific markets](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042714/554dbfd9b4c905c7488b4c6b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
1. Lust ‘I want this’
2. Greed ‘I need this’
3. Gluttony ‘I must have more’
4. Sloth ‘I haven’t thought about it’
5. Wrath ‘I am angry about this’
6. Envy ‘I want what s/he’s got; I am worth it’
7. Pride ‘I am better; I deserve this’

Would this happen in Asia?

O Emotional intelligence applied to the social media arena could be equated with social intelligence (SQ)
O When contact occurs, process should be outlined and expectations clearly set right from the start
O Information and interaction preferences should be determined so relationships can be built in a customised manner
O The reason a community is convened and what it is all about should be articulated
![Page 31: Digital and social media across Asia-Pacific markets](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042714/554dbfd9b4c905c7488b4c6b/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
O Elicitation of metaphors to be baked into subsequent communications content
O There needs to be a deliberate effort to find the ‘birds of a feather who flock together’ (aka ‘homophily’)
O Each community should be designed with outputs in mind ahead of the game
O Metrics should be determined, and not just ‘vanity numbers’
![Page 32: Digital and social media across Asia-Pacific markets](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042714/554dbfd9b4c905c7488b4c6b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
O When people commit themselves in public to something, they have created a new ‘image template’ of themselves...
O People will do and say whatever is necessary to conform with their new public image...

O Putting on digital clothes does not necessarily
demand changes in executive behavior
O Do you appear at public events? Flickr
O Do you ever give presentations? SlideShare
O Do you make speeches at industry events? YouTube
O Does your organization actively recruit? LinkedIn

O Assign people with specific ownership
O Do social media training for the team
O Program a regular rhythm of content
O Assess analytics and recalibrate at regular intervals
O Don’t be pressured to be on too many platforms
O Build a ‘big brain’ of enduring knowledge
