What’s important to remember is that technology isn’t the cause of employee disengagement, unless of course, someone intentionally made it that way. In fact, when used correctly, technology can be a tool that helps engagement.

Most of the time when we approach goals, we do it from a corporate angle. After all, that makes the most sense. The reason you hire people is to reach the organizational goals of the company. It’s why they get a paycheck, says traditional thinking. But we know today that engagement skyrockets and employees are more fulfilled (and productive) when they understand those organization goals.

I had a conversation with one of my friends from India and we were sharing stories about how throughout our careers we have both been known as people who can do more than what our specific job title would indicate. We weren’t talking about being able to take on more responsibility in order to receive a promotion, we were talking about learning and using skills from another industry to help further our careers.

Human resources departments are typically a frenzy of activity, but technology has given HR professionals tools that help reduce administrative tasks so that they can focus on issues that require more hands-on attention. Before mobile apps and cloud computing, HR was defined by piles of paperwork and a constant struggle to keep up with compliance, hiring, and unending stacks of employee information.

Many years ago, I worked for a human resources director who told me it was better to be stupid than wrong. If I didn’t know something, I shouldn’t volunteer an opinion. I should admit that I didn’t know the answer rather than risk offering an incorrect piece of advice. Turns out, nobody knows anything during the first few months on the job.

Social recruitment seems to have almost slavishly followed the stages of the Gartner Hype Cycle. We’ve trekked over the “peak of inflated expectations” and waded through the “trough of disillusionment,” pretty soon the “slope of enlightenment” should rise ahead of us. We know that social recruitment isn’t going to replace everything else we’ve been doing but promoting your jobs to your most engaged audience makes sense.
