Afternoon Workshop B: 14.00-17.30

The Virtual "Watercooler":
Engaging with the fully networked digital employee

Internal communication is potentially both more risky and more effective in the new world of highly networked employees.

But rather than engage in an arms race of blocking and prohibiting risky behaviour that might impact the company, it makes more sense to engage employees and involve them in the process of business improvement and innovation.

Social networks and tools provide many opportunities to do this successfully but it's important to understand the culture of these tools in order to get it right.

This session aims to equip you with a greater understanding of employee behaviour, focus and response to various media tools, which in turn can be used to enhance your digital internal communication strategy.
