Book Review: “Throwing Sheep in the Boardroom”
‘Throwing Sheep in the Boardroom’ How Online Social Networking Will Transform Your Life, Work and World
by Matthew Fraser & Soumitra Dutta
Recommended book for social media fans, geeks and the down right curious. There isn’t a great deal in this book that you might not already be familiar with, especially if you are on a site like this, but it is presented as a sociological viewpoint from the boardroom.
For example, in the UK there are approx 5 million people whose social networking history will jeopardise their career prospects. Fear not, chapter on ‘Reputation Management’ for those who want to wipe the slate clean.
An interesting read, sift for the wheat, leave the chaff.
