This post summarizes the biggest challenge with Enterprise Social… how to you teach an organization or individuals to be remarkable? Engagement is the number one problem inside the walls of organizations just like external communities. The competition for mindshare is fierce, yet so many attack it in old fashion ways with uninspired messages. I am looking forward to amping up the conversation around this topic.
+Jeremy Von Deylen I agree & feel you can't teach it… but you can hire it.
Agreed, everyone wants earned engagement… few fund the same remarkable talent when it comes to Enterprise Social…. +Lynette Young I really appreciate your contribution and advocacy on G+, thank you!
Oh +Jeremy Von Deylen I agree 115% on your observations on enterprise social. I almost hate to admit this, but even though my husband develops software for that use, I shy away from clients needing help in that genre. They just haven't evolved enough – yet. Maybe I should go back and pay those companies another look 😉
thanks for the great information ,this will help me a-lot ..
Thanks for the great post on starting and attracting people to your community 🙂 Really great stuff!
Hey +Jeremy Von Deylen, silly question, what is Enterprise Social and whats it all about?
Thanks Lynette very well stated!
That was an awesome recap and really good suggestions. I clicked through to her other articles and it only got better. I liked what everyone had to say and, for me, the takeaway was: passion, passion, passion. I can get behind that.
