Research the major risks for businesses that indulge in commercial applications of social networking. Also, review the readings on page 311 of your textbook about how organizations can respond to social networking problems. Organizations may respond to social networking problems in one of three ways:

  • leave it

  • respond to it

  • delete it


In this discussion, identify a major problem for an organization that participates in social networking, and then discuss how the organization should respond to that problem.

The biggest problem I see is that information which is put on social media can be construed in the wrong way.  People can read into things more than it should be.  There is no body language or facial expressions to see so what is read can go in any direction.  Putting something on social media can be very damaging.  Even though it can be deleted, enough people could still see it before it is deleted and still comment on it.  It would never go away.  I would leave it.  By deleting it, it would look like you are trying to cover something up.  By responding to it, it can become much worse than it was.
