- How have you incorporated social media into your own work?
- I encouraged social media collaboration tools among my team. Following my employee webcasts, my leadership team and I hold a one-hour Yammer session when my team can ask questions and participate in the discussion. I also actively blog on our company intranet, asking questions and responding to those posted by others.
