Social media is mainstream. Not just with users, but businesses too. But businesses have concerns about social media and that's where the social media policies come into the discussion. 

We'll have a variety of speakers on our panel who can speak to the variety of considerations that go into a social media policy from a variety of perspectives: HR, Legal and implementation perspectives. 

You'll leave this session armed with the information you need to create a social media policy at your company!

We'll discuss:

• How social media policies have evolved in recent years
• Social media policy creation, some key thoughts
• Examples of social media policies that work
• Social media policies and HR, how are they working together?
• What are forward thinking companies doing to protect themselves legally?

Bring your questions! Our panel will be ready to answer your questions and lots of SMCHI's PROS will be on hand to participate and answer questions as well.
