In their BlogWell Minneapolis case study presentation, “Collaboration 2.0,” McDonald’s Senior Director of Communications, Heather Oldani, and Senior Director of Global Web Communications, Steve Wilson, outline how McDonald’s is using social media to engage not only customers, but their franchisees and employees as well.

Heather and Steve share how at McDonald’s, no single department owns social media and instead multiple teams collaborate on it, how the national brand had to claim ownership of social media to manage what was becoming a flood of microsites, Twitter accounts, and Facebook pages in local markets, and how they’re seeing exciting results from their internal social media communities.
