I agree with Mr Omar and M's Ghada answers, thanks for the invitation
......
I agree with answers the experts
I believe that this answer depends on how the leader can keep his employees motivated to do their work. I speak my mind as I am an employee also. I really believe that it all falls on the managers shoulders and let me tell you why. When you treat your employees like machines and make them work every second of their working hours you are sure to see negative effects regarding social media usage in work places. Same thing falls for when work is slow and low. Boredom will befall the people and they will find ways to entertain themselves. The human being has something called an attention span which is the time he uses his mind to focus on a certain issue. In science it is said that more the person is motivated in the activity he is doing the more he can elongate his attention span willingly. And now the question will be how to keep your employees motivated in the work place so as to maximize performance???
This is solely dependent on the employees characteristics and motivation at the work place. A responsible employee could use the social media to enhance his work skills and gather information or data which could possibly aid him with this work. However it can serve as a major distraction from work as well if the employee sought to do so.
agree with answer given b Ms. ghada
Thanks for the invite ............. not increase an answer, Mr. Omar
In my opinion, social media in connection with the career can only have positive effect if theprofessional networking supported. LinkedIn can be a good example of how the field news are exchanged and questions being answered by experts. So a person should be clear for checking benefits of exchangong opions for actually improving his/her performance.
Yet, friendly facebook chats shoudl not interfere in the work time. it will distract attention. Leave the fun time for personal after hours :)
To be honest... We do not need it on the workplace as social media is 9 out of 10 private.
Sure it is beneficial when your employee gets the hottest news that a child in the family is born or all other happy news in the world , which cheer someone up, no doubt about that, but there are limits! Seriously limits.
15 years ago it did not exists, and what did an employee do? Yes correct socializing on the workplace With your collegues. But to scroll hours on Internet That is not in business interest to socialize with others and/or with complete strangers? You got my point?
