Answer to Question 1
HCM systems often add social networking software, and organizations are finding innovative ways to use it. Dow, for instance, wanted to tap the extensive knowledge and skills of its retirees, employees on maternity leave, and others who were loyal to the company but not currently working. It launched a social alumni network for this population-well over 40,000 people-and invited them to reconnect with colleagues, search for job opportunities, share news, and mentor less-experienced workers. Part of the company's motivation was the looming skills shortage; therefore, Dow encourages their own scientists to interact with young people who might want to pursue scientific careers.
Dow also invited employees who had been laid off during a business downturn. Some managers feared these members might just vent on the alumni network, but most did not. In fact, some laid-off workers-called boomerangs-were hired back when business recovered, based on their positive attitude and networking capabilities.
