For those who don’t know one of the greatest times of the year has started – the NBA Playoffs! – and being a starting member of the 8 Man Rotation – it’s my duty to post something about the NBA playoffs and tie it back to HR. It’s what we do. It’s what we are ‘famous’ for. It helps us profile our audience. So, the playoffs get started this week without one of the greatest NBA players of all time, Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers, who was injured this season and will be out the entire playoffs. Kobe is the Laker’s leader and because he just had surgery can’t attend the games in-person, but he did the next best thing – he live Tweeted his feedback on his teammates during the game! As you can imagine this went over like doing a live performance review of your CEO at the annual company picnic!
I was wondering what a live tweet stream would like if your team was live tweeting during your monthly town hall all-employee meetings. I’m guessing something like this:
ButtKisser @ButtKisser
Sitting in the front row at Town Hall – can’t wait to hear what our CEO has planned for us this month!
