Progress Report (Social Media in the Workplace) #1

Group members, Orlando Ivan Hernandez, Luis Olivares, David Saravia

-In order to have a complete idea on how our project will end up, we will all be dividing the work equally. Each member will be responsible for their own research and making sure it is thorough. Our topic is “Social Media and the Workplace”. Luis will be responsible for research and collecting data from the workplaces and how much they use and depend on social media. I will be doing the introduction about  how social media is a big influences towards businesses work place around the globe. Lastly, David will be in charge of finding the pros and cons of businesses that use social media in their workplace. All group members will all have to have their specific research. If any one from our group member is having trouble on search for their data, then we will contribute our help if it ever come to that. The group member responsible for that each role will be held responsible and will need to elaborate and type their findings for proof. We will communicate with one another in order to progress on this topic and find as much information needed to present. Our way of dividing the work helps us see the importance of our roles and will benefit in seeing our perspectives on the data we collect as well as see what needs to be added, taken away,in order for our presentation on “Social Media and the Workplace”.

-My research will be based upon finding the reason why social media plays a big role and how it is an influence to the globalization of businesses. As well on what is the meaning for future businesses that will need to use social media in order to stay in contact with clients, and pass important information from one another. I will also research on how the influence came to be passing time since social media did not really exist in the past. How now we rely on social media to stay in contact with one another. Social Media in the Workplace is new to this era and I will talk about how it is now and how I believe the influence will affect the outcome of businesses in the future.
