Training and Awareness Based upon Age and Learning Styles

The ability to deliver messaging in media that Millennials and Generation X employees prefer is a growth area. We intend to establish a high level of awareness creating momentum while sticking to an individual topic each month, seizing the opportunity to expand and contract as appropriate to each audience via multiple media options. We are examining solutions for a ‘create once publish many’ infrastructure enabling accurate and pointed messaging covering a broad range of topics from different perspectives, incorporating current security risks and topical news both within the company and in the marketplace.

 

We also intend on rewarding proper behavior surrounding identification and communication of issues. We are nearly ready to present the rewards program proposal to you for review prior to submission.

 

We see security policies as a method to communicate the corporate consensus of judgment that defines appropriate behavior for our employees. As per our recent discussion, this provides Human Resources the ability to act in response to inappropriate behaviors executing appropriate sanctions that are fair and within legal bounds since prosecution without policies can be problematic.

 

Through branding and integration of all medium into a coherent, consistent and instantly recognizable policy-based, campaign theme, we envision cultural change while reducing security risks. Not to be entrenched in a standard monthly message, we are working with the Help Desk to quickly identify security issues as they are logged using Blogs, RSS feeds and Twitters as methods to maintain internal issue currency.

 

We are establishing a Policy and Awareness Council that demographically represents the company. We are greatly interested in your participation as a co-chair for this council. I look forward to your feedback.
