Nachhaltiges Wirtschaften im digitalen Zeitalter

Zusammenfassung

Für Unternehmen bieten die fortschreitenden Entwicklungen in der Datenanalyse umfassende Möglichkeiten, ein besseres Verständnis ihrer Kunden, ihrer Mitarbeiter oder ihrer Konkurrenten, deren Verhalten und ihrer Präferenzen zu gewinnen und dieses in unternehmerische Entscheidungen einfließen zu lassen. Das steigende Bewusstsein von Nutzern sozialer Medien darüber, dass die von ihnen geposteten Informationen, Meinungen, Fotos oder Videos Gegenstand von Analysen sein können, kann ihr Kommunikationsverhalten jedoch verändern. Hemmt dies den freien Meinungsaustausch? Wie lässt sich das messen? Welche Konsequenzen hat es für eine Gesellschaft? Und würde sich dies auf die Kommunikation in Unternehmen auswirken, die soziale Medien für ihre interne Kommunikation verwenden? In diesem Beitrag werden relevante Forschungsarbeiten zur Messung und Erfassung des Chilling-Effektes sowie der Selbstzensur in sozialen Medien und deren Auswirkungen auf unternehmensintern genutzte soziale Medien kurz vorgestellt.
