Social tools:
beyond the static intranet
Finding information?
People directory?
Communication?
Collaboration?
An expensive repository
for the canteen menu?
Intranets were once the
‘internet inside’ ... but now?
Collaboration & collective action
have never been easier or cheaper.
  This has profound implications
    for organisational design.
Opportunities for leadership to reach out
and engage with people in the business
A new breed of internal
systems is emerging that
collapse corporate scale
More ‘Facebook-like’
internal systems emerging
Group collaboration +
personal social features
Intranet wikis don’t have
to look like Wikipedia
Informal, personal
communication works well

Business uses of social tools

Editor's Notes

  • #4 It can’t be the catering...
  • #9 Regardless of the platform, many business requirements we see are still rooted in ‘traditional’ intranet thinking...
  • #10 Are you still framing requirements in a basic way? Largely this will depend on the stage of development of your internal processes and culture
  • #11 It’s amazing that even this first step is often not in place This is the main building block for any social networking initiative...
  • #12 Do you mean top-down corporate messaging? Or do you mean value exchange through ongoing dialogue with staff and teams?
  • #13 Collaboration is a vague aim - doomed to fail as an explicit goal Actually, it’s a second-order effect arising from doing work in a situated, contextual setting
  • #15 Things have moved on and to take full advantage of the social affordances of the new generation of tools you need to take a much wider view of business requirements, and user needs
  • #16 the social web show us how tobuild new structures that have both intimacy & scale, using trust networks to reduce friction& co-ordination costs
  • #17 This is leading to a level of exposure, visibility and potentially risk, which you need to be ready to embrace and leverage Are you ready for this level of transparency?
  • #18 IBM BlogCentral: 67k users, 16K blogs IBM Beehive: 53K members, 63K photos WikiCentral: 150k users, 1m views per day Media Library: 8m downloads (source: Adam Christensen, IBM January 22, 2009)
  • #19 Edit profile
  • #22 More in-depth case studies coming up from Steve Perry on how Confluence was deployed at Freshfields and from Hemma Kocher on how the South Central PCT Network has been using it to collaborate across many health organisations in that region
  • #23 More in-depth case studies coming up from Steve Perry on how Confluence was deployed at Freshfields and from Hemma Kocher on how the South Central PCT Network has been using it to collaborate across many health organisations in that region
  • #24 Technology, society, and work are all changing at breakneck speeds, but businesses are not keeping pace. When these emerging trends work together, they call for a new kind of business – one that is distributed, collaborative, agile and better positioned to succeed.
  • #25 Social Business Design is the intentional creation of dynamic and socially calibrated systems, process, and culture. The goal: improving value exchange among constituents.
