Social technology is ubiquitous in everyday life. Meanwhile, many organizations remain hindered in their attempts to leverage social tools to improve the employee experience the workplace. L&D teams many times try to lead the charge under the guise of social learning, but are often unable to achieve meaningful levels of user engagement. We’re tired, disappointed, and frustrated because we know it’s a good idea, but we can’t figure out why it’s not working. If people have become so comfortable engaging with one another online outside the office, why can’t we get them to exhibit the same behaviors inside the office?
This session will explore the cultural foundation of the evolving social workplace using practical examples. The session will focus on the employee and organizational behaviors necessary to facilitate meaningful, relevant, continued collaboration and knowledge sharing.
