This seems to be something hard for companies to get, since it also in R&D is an active discussion, to innovate you must be allowed to fail.

On the matter of cross-functional engagement, I think it likely that in most organisations the marketing people or "communications" people, or however described, are going to be more comfortable with managing their communication on social platforms and may even be quite enthusiastic about the idea. Others may need some special encouragement. Crucially, and especially for those in the company who are not used to direct contact with the "outside world" and maybe never dreamed it would be asked or expected of them, there needs to be some explicitly stated "right to fail" (apart probably from gross stupidity or deliberate sabotage), with that endorsed and supported in practice by the company's leadership. Otherwise you are going to find people "otherwise engaged", "dealing with deadlines" etc. Jan, as you know I answered your question on Quora.

It's a great question, and I'm curious to see some of the responses you get. Nice post, Jan! I like the metaphor. It’s a great question, and I’m curious to see some of the responses you get.

I also liked the length of your post... attention span considerations are great so I liked that you opened with an easy to grasp concept and you opened it up to opinions. very engaging format. well done.

Recently used similar reference in a presentation. My answer to your last question is, clean the website up first to prepare a landing pad for your social sites and then start with a blog.

Lands right on the key problem here. Companies cannot dictate social engagement, and nor should they. As long is was only brick & mortar or phone lines that worked. Social opens this up to a plethora of opportunities. Whether they like to hear this or not, it really doesn't matter. The customer runs this story. Great post.
