Not sure how we missed this from earlier this year… Accountancy firm Grant Thornton’s internal video encouraging, no instructing employees to get on social media and connect with prospects and clients.
Great quotes from the video:
“Smart use of social media… will help us win business, achieve the growth we’re after and get the best people to joins us. We have a once in a lifetime opportunity.”
“At Grant Thornton using social media at work is not only permitted and acceptable, but desirable and expected.”
Here’s the video. It’s just a couple of minutes long and well worth watching:
Well done to Grant Thornton for taking a lead on this!
