McDonald's names Rick Wion as its first director of social media.  A founding member of the McDonald's Digital Task Force, Wion is no stranger to social media. He has been handling projects for McDonalds since 2006. 

Reporting to director-external communications/public relations, Heather Oldani- Mr Wion's immediate social media goals are threefold:: manage customer issues, build the business and to extend outreach to target groups.  After a year of devising a dedicated social -media strategy, establishing a method of determining ROI in social media communities and assessing opportunities, the decision was made to have someone one hundred percent dedicated to their social media marketing plan.
