When my previous employer started using Microsoft SharePoint I was excited, finally feeling like "YES, they get the importance of social media!" For those that do not know SharePoint is a place that you can connect with other employees, company peers and managers in a single place, where ideas and projects can be shared and where policies and procedures can be managed. SharePoint is a great tool to connect employees and allow brainstorming and project work remotely - which can be a great assist with employees that work near and far. With the way the future of business is moving SharePoint is able to bridge the gap between remote and office workers, and allow for real time access to new policies and business practices. Using SharePoint allowed me to work on projects with people of other departments without actually having to leave my computer, we were able to create better workflows and all have an input on the data that was submitted for final approval, without using different programs and structures.

The References used this week focused around remote access to work and how that changes human capital - such as Forbes Magazine that allows for real life resources of leadership and HR professionals. By having people that are leaders in their industry writing the article you are able to see how companies actually work and the areas that they focus on. This allows for greater understanding of improvement and procedures.
