6 THINGS YOU SHOULD NEVER DO ON SOCIAL MEDIA Eight percent of top senior female executives have sport in their background. Most of these women continue to be physically active; the correlation between sport and business can be put down to a few things. Being involved in sport helps women to develop their leadership skills and to deal with failure. It also gives them the competitive edge and teaches them about learning from losing. Instead of feeling disheartened, athletes work harder and try different things to get the results they want. These attributes can easily be transferred to the business world. Tips for brand behaviour and reputation management 1.Don't reply to everyone – If there is a problem, selectively choose when and where to clarify it. 2.Don't respond to trolls – This will hype them up even more. Most people that are critical are trolls and don't need to be replied to. 3.Don't react right away – If you feel the need to respond to a critic, calm down before you do so. If you are angry and fuming when you reply you will just make the situation worse. 4.Don't insult people - It's an important skill in life to be able to process criticism without taking it personally. It is unprofessional to respond to critical feedback with personal attacks. 5.Learn when to walk away – Even when there is heated debate about something you or your company did, it's important to know when to walk away and when to say something. 6.Don't lie – It will end up backfiring on you and ruining your reputation.
