Taking a look into our colleagues online platforms profiles can tell us what kind of presence they are having online. We can examine or compare those ways of communicating with their daily-in-person personal traits and behaviors. In an effort to better utilize this network platforms, we can examine our social media profiles and ask ourselves: What message am I conveying as an individual?. After watching Hancock's video, we can reflect on what skills, knowledge and messages we truly want to share about us.
