Make it a culture thing Social technologies require a certain mindset to unlock their full potential. Often their rollout is more of a change management than sole IT project.
You have to make sure your company culture is compatible with what you‘re trying to achieve.

Leading by exampleFor your company to really take off as a social business, you need everyone
on board. That includes the base as well as your top management.
Make sure you have your full management support and that your CEO and top management are leading by example.

Create a social governance modelA truly social business is one that embraces social technologies on all levels.
You need to create a social governance model that integrates all these different areas and formulates a
holistic social strategy for your company.

Decide on the right tools Which tools to use depends on what you want to achieve
and where your company stands technologically.
It‘s important to thorougly test before you buy and make sure to involve all parties in the decision.

Give Internal Communications the social overhaul
Internal communications is the lighthouse function within your company that can make or break the adaptation of
your social business strategy.
Within a social business, the internal communications function shifts more towards management than sole editor
of internal news. So make your internal communications fit for social.

Enable the people (especially your CEO)
While most of your employees will use a social network in their private lives, you still need to educate and enable
them on how they should use social technologies for the benefit of your company.
That means training sessions for everyone, first and foremost your top management.

Show your employees you mean(social) business
Actions speak louder than words: Show your employees that your social business strategy is here to stay.
Make sure you shift important processes and information to the new technologies.
There‘s an uncomfortable topic that needs communicating? Have your CEO available for a truly social live Q&A session on your social platform rather
than send out an email.
