## Document Notes
## Highlights
- SNF also stems from burnout associated with the emotional, intellectual, and time commitments required to stay connected to peers in one or many social networks concurrently. ([Location 3217](https://readwise.io/to_kindle?action=open&asin=B003917VAE&location=3217))
- You represent the future of your brand’s connections, and resonance within emerging media. Don’t get distracted. Get to work. ([Location 3599](https://readwise.io/to_kindle?action=open&asin=B003917VAE&location=3599))
- We need to spend more time listening and less time broadcasting or talking “at” people. ([Location 3607](https://readwise.io/to_kindle?action=open&asin=B003917VAE&location=3607))
- We must realize that there are benefits to monitoring, observing, listening, communicating, and connecting. ([Location 3608](https://readwise.io/to_kindle?action=open&asin=B003917VAE&location=3608))
- Humanizing the brand is necessary if, and only if, a human voice will reduce or eliminate potential friction between the customer and the company. ([Location 3648](https://readwise.io/to_kindle?action=open&asin=B003917VAE&location=3648))
- social strategies must personify the greater purpose, significance, and symbolization of the brand, and reinforce those traits through everything we contribute. ([Location 3649](https://readwise.io/to_kindle?action=open&asin=B003917VAE&location=3649))
- Without realizing the impact of a single update, employees are jeopardizing brand stature, reputation, and competitive edge. Without thinking, employees are sharing candid and damaging thoughts and updates—intentionally and unintentionally—that possess an uncanny ability to surface when least expected and be discovered by people who were never supposed to see them in the first place.
