Make Your Big Organization Feel Smaller

Written by David Bator | October 2, 2012

How do you engage your employees? This is the promise that social software is supposed to provide, making a big organization feel smaller. But a true social enterprise is more than leveraging online media and networking tools. It’s about trusting your workforce while providing purposeful programs for them to be heard – whether it’s to ask a question, give an opinion, or share recognition that can highlight desired workplace behaviours.

What makes it difficult of course is that when it comes to engagement strategies, one size does not fit all whether it be for transparency, recognition, opportunities to collaborate or to learn new skills. This is true at the best of times and critical during the worst of times.
