NOTE: You will need to make your initial post before you will see classmates’ posts. Remember the discussion board is an ongoing conversation and can not all be completed in one day/sitting. Refer to the discussion board rubric under syllabus/schedule content area of Bb for full details on the expectations of discussion board use.
You must have an initial response to the following discussion questions along with at least two follow up responses to other postings.
Competing Through Technology: Connectiveness Enhances HR Practices (Entire Article starts on pg 119 of the textbook)
Social networking helps people satisfy their need to stay connected, and now it also helps companies to enhance many of their HR practices including recruiting, training and development, scheduling and enhancing employee engagement. There are several examples of this use of social networking for HR practices. Macy’s, for example, uses Twitter to post job openings and to reach out to recruit merchandise buyers laid off by other retailers who are closing their stores. IBM’s onboarding process, which is known as Succeeding@IBM, is used to help new employees learn about the company and reduce the feeling of being overwhelmed.
Discussion Question
Discussion Question
- · Explain how social networking can be used for various HR practices.
- · Can you think of other ways that the HR function in an organization can use Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, or other types of social networking?
- · Also, are companies limited to using popular applications such as these in order to achieve the benefits of connectivity, or are their other ways of doing so?
- Provide examples of what you or your company currently use as well as any other useful information which your classmates may learn from
