There are many reasons to start a blog. Some people just have opinions that want (i.e. NEED) to share. Others may be promoting or marketing themselves or a business. Ultimately, I guess that’s why the CPC blog was started. But it’s more than that. Our blog shows a different side to our organization. Our sales and management team don’t want to make stuffy corporate presentations to you via blogspot. Instead, we just want to share what’s on our minds and how it relates to you and our business relationship with you.
In Human Resources, we see blogs, and all social media for that matter,
as a relatively new challenge that we must face. It’s a minefield of potential problems
forcing us to design Social Media policies that balance current labor laws with
our organization’s best interests. On
the other hand, blogs can be a valuable resource to help us navigate through
the ever-changing world of employment law.
My favorite blog is written by an attorney/employment law trainer. She posts concise articles about current
events and case law that provide quick reminders of best practices or new
practices we should incorporate into our daily operations.
When done right, blogs are a positive and effective tool for sharing
thoughts and information. We like the
more casual nature of a blog. That’s why
we post videos too! We figure everyone
can use a chuckle now and then, so we share a couple This Day Today videos each
month...they are short, informative and silly.
Just the way we think a blog should be J
So, as we continue to develop the CPC blog, we hope you will come back
and check it out each month. We promise
no heavy sales pitches, just light introductions to the people and processes that
make Custom Products a great Company and a great place to work.
