Program And… Take the Social Journey Together
Why Should We Change?
The Social Work Transformation
First- What Are We Talking About?
Social Networks in general allow individuals to connect with information and with other people who share their interests. These connections occur in an online environment, where the exchange is often written down and preserved for others to later discover. Through Social Networks, we are creating a vast archive of ideas, connections, and conversations.
Enterprise Social Networks yield these same benefits. Within a closed, private network, employees can create for each other a vast archive of business ideas, connections and conversations. Having greater access to information about their role, their project, and their organization allows employees to work more efficiently and to innovate more quickly.
Being social is human nature—people have always discovered ways to connect with each other, share knowledge, make collective decisions, and collaborate to do big things.
Traditional Systems = Silos = Disconnection
• Organizational units traditionally rely on different software applications.
• Sales teams spend most of their time within customer relationship management (CRM) software, while marketing teams are heads-down in graphics design software.
• Finance teams spend most of their time within enterprise resource planning (ERP) software.
• Information is shared between small groups of people with whom you typically work on a daily basis.
Break Those Silos DownPrimarily relying on standalone software applications and on traditional communications platforms prevents information sharing across the organization.
Traditional systems do not allow you to tap into tribal knowledge nor to easily locate expertise across the organization.
By adding a social layer across standalone software applications, and by encouraging group communication primarily through an enterprise social network, organizations can begin to breakdown silos.
Social capabilities must be a natural part of how we work, seamlessly woven into the tools you use every day to get your work done. Social has to be easy, frictionless, and in context.

A Blend Of Both
What Creates Social Success?
Four factors for success
Clarity of vision
Your organization can explain how ESN helps them do their job better.
Integration
The right sources of business data are connected to your Enterprise Social solution.
Sponsorship and participation
Executives and key contributors are committed to driving adoption.
Community management
A proactive, analytics-based approach is applied to engaging users.
The Social Journey
The Social Journey “Working social" is more than just a
newsfeed. It's a journey that fundamentally changes how people work together. This methodology is designed to help individuals make this transition in the way they do work. Customer-centered approach in which the
value is defined by the customer. Can be completed by any individual,
team, department, or organization. Empowers a shift from working in silos to
working out loud. Creates a ripple-effect that grows the
network over time.
Step 1. Define Your Vision
Why Define Your Vision?Help the customer outline their high-level goals and priorities.
Enables all employees to foresee the value Social Solution will bring to the organization and to them personally
Achieves a clarity of purpose which helps secure buy-in and support
Guide to help identify measures of success
Vision Questions
Why is the organization deploying a Social Solution at this time?
How does the Social Solution support the organization’s Mission / Values / Strategy?
How will Social change the organization? How will the organization know if the Solution is
successful? How will the Social Solution benefit the overall
organization? How will the Social Solution benefit every
employee personally?
Using the answers from these questions, a customer can draft an actual Social Vision Statement.
Example Vision Statement
Social Solution: Reinventing the Way We Work!
• Transparent Communication: A platform to deliver a consistent message and facilitate two-way communication.
• Collaborative Projects: Drive productivity by facilitating cross geographic and functional team project collaboration.
• Shared Knowledge: Increase access to information and the ability to share best practices and learn from each other - peer to peer.
• Inspired Work: Accelerate innovation giving us the agility to meet the needs of our changing business.
Example Vision StatementWe create a safe and open collaboration platform for easy sharing of company data and news between employees to improve efficient execution of our strategies as part of our culture of performance."

• Collaborate seamlessly on projects • Reduce duplication of work through better access to
resources• Harness the knowledge and power of our collective group• Stay abreast of changes occurring throughout the team• Learn and grow through intrinsic knowledge consumption• Easily access information and updates from anywhere
Transforming the way our department connects with each other, works together on tasks or projects, communicates with leadership, and streamlines processes for efficiency and clarity.
Step 2. Map to Value

use Social Solutions that support the vision. Brainstorm and explore
potential ways Social Solutions can be used throughout your company

Step 3. Work Social
Work Social Focus on how the organization will put the
prioritized initiatives for a Social Solution into practice, which we refer to as "user stories."
User stories are simply a defined way of using Social Solutions to accomplish a specific goal or task.
Prioritize 3-5 user stories to start, depending on your resources and goals. They should be: user stories initially identified during the
brainstorming conversations with the organization's key stakeholders.
user stories that started to develop organically as network members continue to grow and adopt the Social Solution into their day-to-day workflow.
A combination of top down, strategic user stories as well as the viral, bottom up use will further encourage participation and engagement across all levels of the business.
As a job seeker, I want to search for a job, so I can advance my career.

Step 4. Drive Success
Steps to Drive Success1. Create Timeline: Develop your launch action plan and assign
responsibilities.
2. Conceptualize Launch Event: A launch date builds anticipation and excitement about the initiatives.
3. Develop Communications: Comms should be divided into the three different phases (pre-launch, at launch and post-launch) and should focus on ensuring employees understand the “WIIFM?”
4. Prepare Trainings: Members should be comfortable with the solution through basic trainings, and also understand how to use it to perform their specific tasks.
5. Manage Your Community: Enable Community Managers to inspire and engage the network, through a clear strategy to drive engagement. Identify Power Users and create a community of champions to spread buy-in.
6. Identify Technical Needs: Decide how your employees will be accessing the network and identify any integration needs, mobile needs, as well as ongoing network help and support.
7. Let the users determine what they want: Support them, even if it isn’t what anyone thought it would be.

Drive Success- Team The most successful Social Solution rollouts occur
when a committed team of individuals, representing a cross-section of your organization, executes all tasks effectively and on time. IT Specialist: Handles any technical requirements, including
network settings and integrations. These tasks should be completed prior to launch to all employees.
Executive Leaders: Endorse and communicate the Social vision, and legitimize and encourage the Social Solution’s use. Lead by example by directly participating in the Social Solution.
Project Manager: Oversees the network rollout and manage timescales
Community Manager: Manages the day-to-day execution of the rollout, launch and awareness events, and helps create connections and inspiration in the network
Group Leaders: Evangelize the Social Solution within departments, assist with Solution setup and lead by example throughout the prioritized user stories
Step 5. Evaluate, Adapt & Iterate
Evaluate, Adapt & Iterate Create a plan for long term success – to review
achievements, maintain momentum, and adapt to new challenges.
• Evaluate what you’ve already accomplished;• Showcase the successes throughout your organization to gather new interest
and opportunities.• Take best practices from previous achievements and apply them to next
steps.
The ultimate goal is to figure out how to best enable individuals throughout the organization to continue expanding the network and initiatives on their own.
Use Metrics! A thorough evaluation will be a
combination of quantitative network analytics, qualitative success stories, and employee feedback. This helps you check on your network health and reprioritize your initiatives. Utilize the Analytics to quantitatively track
network progress and events over time. Highlight conversations throughout the network
that show business value (hashtags, shares, etc.)
Use employee surveys to see how the solutions have affected their workflows.
Share this information with your company to garner further support and interest.
