Only 15 percent of workers share workplace successes on their social media accounts, according to a study from LinkedIn and Wakefield Research. This number includes people who shared accomplishments on personal blogs.

Employees much prefer sharing such news in real life, with 61 percent of respondents telling their friends and family about their professional successes. Twenty-four percent reported celebrating outside the workplace with colleagues, while 29 percent don’t share such news at all, preferring to keep it to themselves.

Other insights from the survey include the fact that employees are more interested in small successes rather than large advances.
