I guess I am not the only professional struggling with their company over ownership of their own social media accounts. After our first class, I decided I would do a little research on the topic since everyone seemed to agree that my LinkedIn situation was a bit unethical to say the least.
In fact, many professionals in positions such as sales or recruitment are commonly found in this very situation. One situation (described in the blog below), an employee was ordered to resign his account once he left the company. Could this happen to me?

As we learned in class, you use social media to build trust…not take it away; ESPECIALLY internally.
Looking forward to learning more!
