Topic 1:  How would you define “professionalism”, in ANY situation? And do you have specific examples? #HITsm

Topic 2: How would you apply professionalism to social media engagement? And is it different across platforms? #HITsm

Topic 3: How do you handle “mixed-company” on social media: friends, family, colleagues, clients on same platform? (i.e., FB) #HITsm

Topic 4: Have you ever witnessed unprofessional – even bullying – behavior on social media? What did you do? #HITsm

Topic 5: How could we advocate for audience-appropriate professionalism without stifling organic, human connection? #HITsm

Here are a few pieces highlighting a cautionary tale of social sharing:

  1. Social Media Bullying – On LinkedIn? – by Mandi Bishop (@MandiBPro)
  2. An Experienced Bully Attacks! – by Steve Sisko (@ShimCode)
  3. How a Health IT CEO Shouldn’t Behave on Social Media – by Neil Versel (@nversel)

During this week’s #HITsm chat, I’d like to consider all the dimensions of what it means to exhibit professionalism in social media engagement. Does “professionalism” have almost as many definitions as “value” in healthcare? Are each of our perceptions of “acceptable” and “optimal” behavior different – and platform/situation-specific? Let’s talk about it!

Let’s try to keep the conversation civil! – Mandi Bishop
