Social Media Is A Reality

Sometimes we wish it wasn’t, but that genie isn’t likely to go back into its bottle. As project managers, many of us are on social media.

Many on social media use the tools to vent about their daily lives, to find a sympathetic ear and to get support—or at least validation.

• But should we? And …
• What is the risk of doing so?

In this webinar Mark Mullaly (LinkedIn profile) author of Researching the Value of Project Management explores what social media can do, what we can do in social media and where we might want to think about drawing the line.

NOTE: This recording has been cleaned up somewhat but still has some technical difficulties.  We are presenting this recording as the information is especially important to IT Project Managers.

Those of us who want to keep our jobs and reputations need to protect our clients from risks, including running afoul of copyright and trademark laws – like “Fair Use” – when creating training materials.

What is Fair Use?
Fair Use is a provision in U.S. Copyright Law—a limitation on the exclusive rights of the copyright owner.

That sounds promising. You may have heard of the “dancing baby” copyright case: a mom posted a brief video of her toddler bouncing with Prince’s song “Let’s Go Crazy” playing in the background. This decade-long case brought the Fair Use limitation into the Internet Age.

Can trainers employ Fair Use in the creation of programs?
Through case studies, we’ll explore the process for determining when Fair Use may apply (It’s not a slam dunk.) and examine best practices.

Those who attend this session will learn…

• How to understand the Fair Use laws and limitations
• How to determine when and where Fair Use applies
• How to conduct a Fair Use analysis
• How to weigh the risks vs. the benefits in your situation

Presenter: Barbara Ingrassia (LinkedIn profile) President of Manage Copyright, comes from an academic library background. She has studied the “murkiness” of copyright law with the Center for Intellectual Property at the University of Maryland, the Special Libraries Association, Duke University and the Berkman Center at Harvard Law School. Barbara facilitated workshops for various professional organizations both virtually and face-to-face and helps individuals and organizations navigate copyright law in the digital age by facilitating a review of their  “public presence,” developing Best Practices, and training their staff. Barbara enjoys bringing some fun to a (potentially) dull topic. Her motto:  Manage Copyright. Don’t let it manage You!℠
