“People regard our program as honest and informative. After almost two years on the social media front, we’ve developed a good system to get timely and accurate public health messaging to our communities. We firmly believe that our presence on social media sites has really enhanced our communication with the media and public.
Executive Director, Gary Edwards said it best in our 2010 Annual Report; that during tough economic times, SLVHD rose to the occasion and found innovative, cost effective ways to communicate with our community. “ - Vanna Livaditis, New Media Coordinator

Leverage the Network
Everyone in the organization uses social media to engage people to improve programs, services, or reach communications goals.
Theme 2: Social Culture
Conversation starters, not stoppers
Sharing control of branding and marketing messages Dealing with negative comments Addressing personality versus organizational voice (trusting employees)
Make mistakes
Make senior staff too accessible
Privacy and security concerns
Perception of wasted of time and resources
Suffering from information overload already, this will cause more

Handling Mistakes
“MisTweet” – A tweet intended to come from a personal account but sent out on an organizational account by mistake.
x
This “MisTweet” by a Red Cross employee was out for an hour before Wendy Harman got a call in the middle of the night.
Disaster recovery on the tweet ….
Apologized and share on their blog
Employee confessed on Twitter
Got picked up by mainstream media and blogs
•You can’t hide or not respond•Act quickly•Admit the mistake, stakeholders are forgiving•Use humor when appropriate•Build your network before you need it•Employees should use different Twitter apps for personal/organizational tweeting•If the mistake had been damaging to the organization, a social media policy would have been critical if taking appropriate action
What are your takeaways about social media mistakes from this story?
