Facebook Fridays
Tech company Serena Software is introducing a unique program called “Facebook Fridays” into their corporate routine. Each Friday, employees are encouraged to take an hour to fix up their Facebook profiles and connect with personal and professional contacts (including co-workers) using the social networking software. Serena President and CEO Jeremy Burton is hoping that using Facebook as a company intranet will bring a sense of community to their 800+ global employees.
“As our business continues to grow, the workplace becomes more and more distributed, which can make us feel disconnected from one another,” said Burton. “Social networking tools like Facebook can bring us back together, help us get to know each other as people, help us understand our business and our products, and help us better serve our customers—on demand. A corporate culture that fosters a sense of community and fun will ultimately help us get more done.”
