Finally in the last video of the Roche Social Media guidance series, I asked everyone how the guidance would impact their work and readiness to collaborate with Roche online…what followed was one of the most interesting discussions so far:

In addition to all the video responses, Berci and Manny shared their thoughts with us via email:

As promised, here is the feedback the Roche social media guidance professional vs. personal split:

Off we go for round 2 of our interview series on the Roche social media guidance:
Is the Roche social media guidance clear?

In addition to the video responses, Berci and Manny were so nice to chip in their feedback via mail:

As promised here, please find now below the first video on the Roche Social Media guidance release:

In addition to all the video responses, I also gathered written feedback from Berci and Manny:

In case you missed Phil Baumann’s or Eileen O’Brien’s excellent posts on this matter: Sara Baker is a fake mother created by Medseek to market their new “epatient” IT solution. In her facebook profile fake Sara talks about her life with [...]

Dear all,
Below, we’ve made an attempt to collate our thoughts on #hcsmeucamp, the #hcsmeu unconference, dialogue-style:

Based on visualizing the basic twitter statistics (followers, following and updates), we came to the conclusion that Boehringer Ingelheim, Johnson & Johnson and Roche were leading [...]
