LinkedIn Rules for Engagement: Linkedin provides a platform for sharing news and information, which is relevant to our organizational strategy and supports our mission to revitalize industry and neighborhoods. This forum also serves as an open dialogue for our partners, networks, and importantly, the communities we serve. As a professional business forum, where business leaders come for information and news, we are committed to bringing informative and engaging content, aimed to raise awareness and help advance our mission to serve the communities in Greater Cincinnati. All dialogues and comments need to be relevant to news shared, or provide additional perspective for ongoing conversations. In keeping a positive experience for our networks and recognizing how valuable everyone's time is, we reserve the right to take down photos, comments and other material deemed "unproductive" by our organization. If someone persists in offensive or unproductive behavior or continually violates our policy of engagement, we may block that person from further participation. Please remember to respect your fellow colleagues and networks.
