In this presentation I will deepen out the situation, the complication and I will work out the solution in the direction of csr, internal relations between HR, ICT and facilities as well as the way how we can anchor this in an overall commercial CSR policy.

For many brands and businesses, social media is still a hybrid between experimental platforms for new marketing approaches and an unknown or at least hard to read environment. It is full of highly relevant user generated content, but it is also full of noise. Some aspects of social media are now widely accepted: They are mostly on a large scale, with continued growth , and content is extremely volatile as they reach billions of consumers. The notion of earned media really brings it to the point where without constant engagement and reliable information about the latest buzz, social media can bear huge risks with high potential and missed opportunities.

Social media information is immense, unstructured and comes from countless sources. Finding the signal amid the noise poses an interesting challenge and opportunity perfect for analytics. In the next 2 – 5 years text mining will be commonplace and allow companies to improve analytical models resulting in better insights for segmentation, customer behavior and competitive intelligence. We will examine the use of text mining to identify brand evangelists, distill thousands of online conversations to common distinct topics and make comparisons between competitors. Successfully creating text mining capabilities will be a short term advantage and long term requirement for the modern enterprise.

At present, Digital has been on the spot due to consumers are more than ever into that ecosystem. But they are not only into that environment as they still live in a physical world and the integration of digital into that is key for success on any marketing activity. With this idea of integration in mind, and considering all benefits of the Digital ecosystem (investments, viralization, tracking, etc) there is still a component missing to build a robust and long term integrated marketing strategy: Content Management. Consumer are present at digital channels because there are content around them and Consumers are changing behaviors given they now get content on it. So, if the intention is to attract consumers attention to walk them through the marketing funnel (awareness, consideration, conversion and usage/loyalty), brands has the mandate to work around a robust Content Marketing Strategy.

The mass adoption of social media in recent years have left organizations at a “crossroad” on how to embrace this technology for achieving its set goals.

Taking the root of copying others and implementing similar social media strategies by believing in the illusion that “one size fits all” is certainly not a recipe for success in our sophisticated world.

We see the social revolution as the top challenging process for the next years: On the one hand we try to get information's safe and close on the other hand there is an upcoming generation of young well developed employees with a complete different mind set how to handle information's: collecting and sharing information is part of their culture. Most of the organisations are still not prepared to cover this challenge, they are still collecting narrative knowledge from retired FTE and prepare them self to transfer this to the next generation. The truth is: that the future generation do have a complete different culture of information mining ! Digital natives are much more able to collaborate with others by having a clear target.

Even as social media ROI presents itself as a challenging conundrum, marketers have the opportunity to look beyond follower acquisition and engagement metrics. Vectors such as relevance, customer centricity and influence will gather currency and become mainstream as we move further up the social maturity curve. Content strategy – originating from consumers’ demand for driving up efficiencies and organisational attempts to cater to these demands – will drive this. With this, social media will increasingly play a dominant role in hyper-personalisation of information dissemination – from organisations to customers and vice versa.

At the onset of the 3rd millennium, McKinsey predicted the coming of the so-called “War for Talent” – mainly due to demographic changes in Western economies. So while recruiters of different companies may be “at war” with each other right now, there are striking examples of how cooperative efforts can greatly outperform individual endeavors. I´m going to demonstrate this by means of two projects that Bertelsmann is currently involved in.

And 2) the “Blind Applying” program, an international internship program spearheaded by the Deutsche Telekom, partnering up with 17 other German blue chip companies (blindapplying.com).

Because regulations around healthcare are so strict, pharma companies have struggled to get in touch with patients and enrich their experience beyond the pill, especially in countries where consumer advertisement is not allowed or where litigation/regulation/safety risks are high. We believe that social channels can, in fact, do exactly that and reconcile our industry with its “patient centricity” moto claimed by every drug company out there. Social channels pave the way for patient-to-patient communication, physician-to-physician exchange or caregiver support. If executed properly and with balance, we can live up to our mission, bring some shine back to our dubious reputation and, more importantly, make society a little better.

In emerging markets, social revolution is helping skip an entire level of economic development. In India, for example, the development of landline telephone network was skipped, and we directly moved on to mobile platforms. Likewise, Africa might just pass on the entire PC revolution. Our belief is that Social media will enable us to omit an entire cycle of industrialization. An example is evident in the Retail sector, where players are exploring innovative ways to reach customers. Retail companies which traditionally have brick & mortar models are experimenting with other formats such as click & collect to increase reach without having to wait for large retail infrastructure to come up. Similarly, in India, the education sector deficit is being transformed by delivering Vocational Education on the tap. Again, in healthcare industry, innovative delivery models are transforming the social fabric of developing nations.

The business world is aflame with the promise of social media to more quickly and actively engage prospects and increase each employee’s involvement in business development. The tools are in place for this transformation. However, the most critical part remains absent: the creation and nurturing of an open, free-flowing corporate stream of consciousness, where every employee fully understands his/her part in the conversation, and is fully empowered to add a thoughtful voice. When successful, an intelligent, well-oiled global human network is created where critical information is available to the right people at the right time and—most important—in the right context, in order to accelerate the time from first contact with prospects to fully engaged, productive business partnerships.

Nothing is more basic to human need than that of health and wellness and couple that with we are by nature social animals - it comes to no surprise that the sharing and obtaining of health information thru social media/online is projected to grow exponentially. The future is an endless landscape of channels to share, socialize and gain health currency and no where is that more true than the possibilities with form factors like google glass and wearable technology. From a consumer and patient standpoint this "digital dopamine" obtained and achieved by online hunting and gathering for health information will be emotionally and educationally priceless. For the health industry this big data is the big opportunity and the winners will be the organizations that succeed in bridging the data gathered from social analytics with motivational/creative experiences to create a continuous loop of health information sharing. The organization of the future in this health focused world will be a combination of science and art where the true differentiator will be leveraging consumer/patient/physician insights and habits into compelling and relevant experiences. There's user experiences inspired by data, there's user experiences inspired by analytics and then there's user experiences inspired by insights and that's where the rubber hits the road; meaningful, emotional and insightful experiences - This new found focus on health and wellness is truly a win-win for the health of mankind.
