I would pick one of the other for the social media. I can see your reasoning for putting both but it almost views like a mistake. Personally I would go with ones integrated into your header (the ones with just the small graphic). Its less obtrusive, and therefore more professional.

It's like a team member control panel.
Very cool. If it gets rolling as you plan this would be an interesting feature. Plus it would give each person a feeling of ownership over the website (something I personally find important).

Yes, my initial suggestion would be one for FRC and FTC. (I almost suggested that in my first post, but must have forgotten too and now suggest it here).
