It is becoming more and more important to be mindful of what we put up on the internet, especially when you are new to an organization. Companies are looking for corporate stewards, people who can represent them well both at and away from work. Showing off your best self online is not only important for job security, but it is important when making early introductions to co-workers. This module focuses on the social networking influences at work and how they can impact your initial impression on others.
