Connectr8 - Exploding The Barriers To Social Computing (UKLUG 2009)Stuart McIntyre
My presentation to the UK Lotus User Group (UKLUG) in Edinburgh, 8 October 2009.
Aimed at relative newcomers to Enterprise 2.0 and Social Software, I spoke about the reasons why social computing is important, some of the challenges to gaining investment in the tools and driving adoption, and how to break through these barriers.
I try to make my presentations very visual, so these slides may not make a huge amount of sense on their own, so if you need any additional information, please get in touch!
This document discusses the need for contextual social collaboration in businesses. It notes that while businesses have tried to centralize information in the past, email and individual siloed applications have prevented true collaboration. The presentation argues that social media has now surpassed email as the primary communication method, and cloud technologies allow for centralized collaboration platforms. An ideal platform would embed collaboration and social features directly into business processes and applications to break down silos. This would enable contextual recall and ad hoc workflows across departments in a way that current disconnected social "add-ons" to individual apps do not support.
Business is now Social, Jeremy Cooper, Salesforce.comPaul Writer
Businesses are looking to leverage social media as a way to gain deeper insight into what customers want and get feedback on how to improve the customer experience, while also attempting to navigate and utilize these same platforms for internal communication and creativity. Jeremy Cooper will share his insights on how cloud computing can bring together industry leading cloud platforms like Google, Facebook and Twitter with traditional contact center channels like phone, email and chat to capture every conversation and leverage every community expert in the cloud. He will also demonstrate how consumer driven sites have shown companies a smarter way to collaborate, leveraging ease-of-use and social features to create rich user experiences and improve productivity.

Decentralized Social Networks - WebVisions 2009David Recordon
One theme of 2008 that has led into 2009 is the idea of social networks transforming from monolithic individual sites to peer sites that share people, content, information.
Technologies such as OpenID, OAuth, OpenSocial and Portable Contacts can be combined to help create this vision, though what will it actually look like when it works?
This talk will look at the philosophical changes being led by companies like MySpace, Google, Plaxo and Six Apart, their impact on social networks like Facebook which traditionally haven't embraced this vision, and how these technologies are being used to make this vision reality.

BetterCompany (formally happiily) Presents at Under the Radar 2013Dealmaker Media
The document promotes the services of happiily, a company that provides personalized training and coaching to help employees and businesses improve. It claims that US companies spend $60 billion annually on training to improve sales, engineering, customer service, administration, management and leadership. happiily offers an automated personalized learning platform and quarterly reports to help companies measure skill improvements and enhance productivity at a lower cost than traditional training methods.
The document discusses performance evaluation software that aims to provide a better way of conducting evaluations through a drag-and-drop interface that allows managers to sort performance criteria into categories like "outstanding", "needs improvement", etc. It provides examples of how the software can help managers like Alex more easily conduct quarterly reviews of employees like Michael and achieve goals like increased transparency, employee morale and trust.
This document discusses the costs associated with hiring technical talent. Traditional third-party recruiting fees average $21,000 per hire while annual Entelo licensing is $6,000. Posting jobs on boards costs around $12,000 per technical hire. Entelo aims to provide a more cost effective alternative for finding qualified candidates.
The document discusses Infor, a company that makes business software applications. It notes that Infor held its Inforum 2013 conference where CEO Charles Phillips spoke. The document contrasts the roles of those who make the software applications (IT engineers) and those who use the applications (department workers) in carrying out their respective functions. It also lists some of the departments within Infor such as Sales, CRM, Marketing, Support, Product, Engineering, and HR.
Software is replacing traditional office jobs and work models. In the past, people worked 9-5 in offices and used separate home and work computers with in-person collaboration. The future will see everyone working for "tech companies" all the time from anywhere without borders. Workers will no longer be tightly tied to single employers but loosely connected to multiple employers. New tools like activity feeds, dashboards, and daily updates will help monitor remote team work and progress.
The document discusses a conversation between Josh and Kelly at ModelN regarding the difference between two options in the Rebate5.3 system - the wholesale service fee option and the service fee for wholesale option. Kelly responds that for most companies there is no difference between the two options, but if the wholesale policy is to change rebates between branches, the wholesale service fee option should be used and each branch rebate entered separately. The document also provides background information about Senexx, its founders and features.
The document discusses the key challenges faced by CMOs in managing marketing investments and plans across multiple systems without visibility into marketing ROI. It introduces an enterprise software solution for CMOs that connects to ERP, CRM and other systems to provide visibility into budgets, plans, forecasts and ROI through a centralized CMO dashboard with analytics. The software solution is priced between $10k-$100k per year plus services and $59-$99 per user per month.
