Fagligt indhold:Internet resulted in a vertical integration of organizational channel capacities such as production, distribution, transaction, and communication and a horizontal integration of organizational communications such as advertising, public relations, and promotion (Li & Leckenby, 2007). Social media channels that emerged from the participatory turn of the Internet facilitated by developments in social computing created new opportunities for interaction and innovation within and across the different stakeholder groups in both the public and the private sectors. The increasing adoption and use of social media channels in organizational settings is resulting in a new kind of organizational paradigm that is termed “social business”.
A social business is an organization that strategically engages, analyses, and manages social media to structure organizational processes and support organizational functions in order to realize operational efficiencies, generate competitive advantages, and create value for customers, shareholders, and other societal stakeholders.
