Five years ago today, I wrote How not to do social media to express my disappointment at the Football Federation of Australia’s mismanagement of its social business strategy.

Debra Ellis asked recently: Does social media belong in Marketing or Customer Service? I replied whimsically that the way I see it, asking who in the organisation owns social media is a bit like asking who owns the photocopiers. So why wouldn’t they take charge of their respective social media initiatives?

Your employees are watching YouTube videos and engaging in social media, even if those sites are blocked by the company. Consider the implications for the e-learning professional: Your employees expect to access information and resources on their own device – whatever make, model or operating system it may be.
