But this new communication channel can cause potential liability for companies. For instance, in April 2009, two employees of Domino's Pizza created a prank video in which they did disgusting things to customers' food, posting the video on YouTube.

This interactive workshop will show you how take advantage of the potential of social media while managing the risks. We'll also share best practice examples and fascinating social media "don'ts."
