Whether it’s a network of all
Or a network of some – social data is an asset for real-time information
It’s not just FB, Tw, and these other tools, it’s a whole social environment. All these people are prepared to help you http://www.amazon.com/Social-Media-Marketing-Strategies-Engaging/dp/0789742845
You need to use social data to connect your dots in your particular situation
Social data will help you see the shape of things to come

My colleagues and I are trying to provide an accessible way for all of us, individuals, teams, organizations, To mix human, technical, and organizational dimensions naturally
Think about it this way – we need to lead all of our organization and all of our projects. No one piece of our expertise or leadership style will get us all the way there.
