3. Should all companies implement internal enterprise social networks? Why or why not?
I believe that all companies should implement internal enterprise social networks. Firstly,
doing this would improve communication within the company. Employees and the
management can easily connect with each other using a chat rather than sending short
conversational emails back and forth (Gushue, 2015). Secondly, it would improve the overall
efficiency of the company as one platform contains all the necessary information needed to
complete tasks (Gushue, 2015). Thirdly, it would be an effective team building tool.
Employees would be kept up to date about company news and activities, giving them a sense
of belonging (Gushue, 2015). They would be assured that they are an important part of the
team and that their concerns would be heard. This will very likely improve company culture
and motivate workers. When implemented properly, internal enterprise social networks can
benefit a company in many ways. Therefore I believe that more companies should make an
effort to integrate these networks into their system.
