11. SOCIALCONNECTIONS8April16-17,2015Boston
In 1972….you spent ZERO
minutes on email!
In 2012 McKinsey Global
Institute says you spend 28%
of your day in it!
McKinsey’s report suggested that
workers could improve their email
productivity by 25-30% through
better use of social collaboration
platforms, buying back 7-8.5% of
their work week.Folders vs. search…..Which is better? Debateable

and receiving fewer
emails and opting
instead for other forms
of communication such
as social networking
sites, instant messaging,
Mobile IM, and
SMS/text messaging.

The Society for Personality and
Social Psychology (SPSP) showed
how Facebook offers a
dangerous medium for social
comparison.
People in that study with lots of
Facebook friends had lower self-
esteem, feeling worse about their
place in life and their
achievements…..
People with just a few Facebook
friends, viewing status updates
wasn't a problem.

Thank
You!
“If an organization has its processes run through
their social network, it’s easy to see who is
completing the work and when.“
“High achievers become much easier to spot and
perpetual slackers will have a much more difficult
time sliding under the radar.“
“This kind of accountability may not be
extremely popular to begin with, but increased
transparency in how processes are handled, and
knowing exactly who does what, cannot be
anything but positive.”
