Adoption Best Practices
Don’t Do
Executives Overlook Find executives to ―walk the talk‖
Taxonomy Reflect organization chart Allow patterns to emerge
Politics/Culture Ignore Be credible. Listen, learn, adapt
Fit with Other Tools Fail to give guidance Provide ―What do I use when?‖
Deployment ―If you build it, they will come‖ Plan for adoption; locate advocates
Staffing Think this is another IT tool Staff community manager
Content Launch with a blank slate Seed use cases
Conversation Think just work, no play Provide ―watercooler‖
Speed to Users Wait to get it perfect Pilot. Deliver early, frequent releases
You can’t plan to go viral. You can’t go viral if you don’t plan well.
