Many Indian companies feel social media
sites such as Facebook and Twitter have improved their brand equity and
stakeholder engagement but such platforms distract employees at work,
says a survey.
The survey by AIMA, grouping of management
professionals, found that more than one-third (38 per cent) of
respondents believe that social media participation has improved their
brand equity as well as stakeholder engagement.
However, about 31
per cent of the respondents were sceptical about using social media for
business. Besides, only 24 per cent were found to be allowing employees
to use social media sites at work.
On the other hand, 56 per
cent of firms surveyed believe that social networking sites distract
their employees and another 37 per cent of respondents believe that it
would hamper internal and external communication.
The survey,
which covered over 100 companies, saw participation of CEOs, MDs,
department heads and managers, among others. Among the firms surveyed
include NIIT, Axis Bank, HCL Technologies, Titan Industries, Bharat
Electronics, ACC and Apollo Hospitals.
According to the report,
many Indian enterprises are yet to embrace social media for business
though nearly all individual executives are using social media for
personal or professional purposes.
Interestingly many firms are
still to accept social media as a tool for expanding business in fact
they see it as a hindrance to work, it added.
Social networking
is widely considered to be one of the most potent tools of marketing,
the survey reiterates this belief with 57 per cent of the respondents
using such sites to market and promote their brands.
Around 20 per cent of companies surveyed have witnessed improvement in employee contribution because of using social media.
