4. Trends - Collaboration
• The Next Wave of Productivity Gains: making
relationships work in a competitive global
environment
• Maintaining the human connection across a
disparate & highly mobile workforce: Work is
becoming ‘what you do, not a place you go’.
• From ‘Systems of Record’ to ‘Systems of
Engagement’ - where the real work gets done
• Deeper engagement with customers, inside the
organisation, and with the partner ecosystem
5. Trends - Social
Social tools allow people to connect and interact with
unprecedented speed and ease.
Actions such as send, reply and forward are being replaced by
more collaborative actions such post, follow, comment, share,
like and tag.
By 2014, social networking services will replace email as the
primary vehicle for interpersonal communications for 20% of
business users.
By 2015, the 20% of enterprises that employ social media
beyond marketing will lead their industries in revenue growth.
6. Trends – Consumerisation of IT
Our IT-enabled consumer experiences are
deeply collaborative, highly effective, and
efficient.
Business needs these same capabilities
“Why can’t I implement this critical business
application on my iPad just I can with ….? “
7. Trends - Mobile
Demand for BYO IT is becoming mainstream
Highly empowered tech-savvy individuals are
demanding it (and won’t let I.T. get in the way)
Gartner data shows tablets alone are going to
have effective parity with PCs in just 3 years
Issues around cost, security, policy
8. Trends - Cloud
Benefits in cost, agility, scalability, flexibility
There are privacy, security, commercial,
contractual, regulatory, cost, risk and
governance factors to consider

14. Getting Started with Social
1. Where can social interactions create new
business value for my customers, employees
and partners?
2. What are the use cases?
3. How will I get employees and customers to use
it for real business?
4. How do our concepts of control, governance,
privacy and security need to change to deal
with the new world?
5. What is the projected value for my new social
business solution?
6. Is a single technology solution the answer?
How do I avoid yet another silo?
15. A Day in the Life…Sales Exec
I Need To….
Bring together a team of experts to help me close deals
Ask questions about products and pricing, case studies, testimonials
Coordinate cross-business-unit interaction with large, global accounts
Share win stories, lessons learnt
But….
Now I Can
Ask Qs in an area SMEs will see
Rate or comment on case studies and other sales aids
Collaborate with prospects and customers in a private extranet group
Pick up on customer & competitive intelligence, industry trends
And….
16. We’d need very
strict policies to I feel anxious
specify who can about ‘putting
do what myself out
there’
Isn’t it just about
making people
feel good?
17. Social & Crossing the Chasm
KISS - Frictionless
Get It In Context – find the moments
Content
Communicate
Measure
Engage the right people -new roles?
Reward
“Some things never change….”
18. SharePoint & Social Holes
My Site inflexible:
> can’t surface activity stream on homepage
> activity stream not real-time
Can’t ‘like’ or ‘comment’ or use hashtags
Suggestions & Recommendations - v light
No Ideation, Enterprise Q&A, Gamification
Blogs, wikis, discussion boards - clumsy
Team Sites are content-oriented, structured – what about
informal communities?
“Why can’t it be more like….LinkedIn, GooglePlus …”
