How to Avoid Social Media Assisted Career Suicide with Dave Statter

What’s Your Emergency welcomes traditional and social media expert Dave Statter from Statter911 to talk about Social Media Assisted Career Suicide Syndrome (SMACSS).  With 38 years in TV news and a wealth of experience in Fire and EMS topics, Dave’s insight into firefighters/EMS and police misusing social media is invaluable.

HM and MC learn about some of Dave’s most memorable social media professional misconduct stories and offers some amazing advice for both the new kids coming in (Those darn millenials) as well as the senior man on the Company (You kids get off my lawn!)

In the old days, maybe one or two pictures of a fire scene would eventually show up in the newspaper.  Today, everyone has a video camera in their pocket, phone always at the ready to capture public safety on the job.  However, with the introduction of this technology comes those who were destined to misuse it.

Topics in this episode include:

  • Are we all a little bit crazy when it comes to oversharing?
  • Which generation is more likely to make a mistake online?
  • What are the best strategies to avoid SMACSS?

Dave Statter answers these questions and more on this episode of What’s Your Emergency!
