A little over a year ago I published a series of 12 posts on this blog giving my top tips for building a successful enterprise social network. (An ESN is an internal-facing social platform for employees of a company). You’ll find links to that series here. I thought it would be good to update those tips now that more than a year has passed, so I’ve started posting those updates as LinkedIn posts. The first seven of the 12 are now available at the following links:
- Have a Full-Time Community Manager From the Start
- Commit To It
- Get Executive Buy-in and Participation
- Have Rules, But Don’t Overdo It
- Pick a Good Platform, But Don’t Focus On the Technology
- Avoid ‘Big Launch Syndrome’
- Encourage Business & Non-Business Content
I’ll update the remaining tips throughout the month of August. Thanks for reading and sharing! I’d love to hear from you in the comments here or on the LinkedIn posts.
