Personalities, Policies & Problems: Companies and Employees 2.0
Event	Interactive 2011
Format	Panel
Organizer	Dave Fleet – Edelman
Description	Everything is immediate and everyone is irrelevant. Those are the ingredients for a human resources and communications migraine as social technologies continue to change the way people communicate and interact in companies. Learn what companies are doing right (and wrong) in the 2.0 landscape when it comes to employee social media use. The panel will consider such issues as: - what is the best way to structure social media within a company? - what policies do companies need to protect themselves in an employee 2.0 world? - do companies have any right to censor employee activities outside the workplace? - what are the pros and cons of blocking social media sites in the workplace?
Questions Answered	What is the best way to structure social media within a company? What internal policies do companies need to reduce risk when implementing social media? Do companies have a right to censor employees' online activities when not at work? Should companies block Facebook, Twitter etc in the workplace? What role can and should social media play in recruiting?
