Introduction:
Social Media as a Managerial Communications Tool
As Guffey and Lowy (2015) note, an organization’s interest in social networking sites “is not surprising if we consider that 73% of Millennials, also called Generation Y, regularly socialize and chat online. An average of 55% of all consumers between 14 and 75 regularly visit social online communities. Clearly, these are important data that organizations and their managers cannot ignore.
