The document discusses the evolution of organizational structures from traditional bureaucratic models to more network-centric approaches that encourage collaboration and effectiveness. It emphasizes the importance of social business design in fostering talent and improving performance through healthy networks and open data. The text argues for innovative tools and cultural shifts that support collective action and sharing within enterprises.

Editor's Notes
- #3 I have to confess, I am a traditionalist. I like to do business the old-fashioned way, in the way Doug described this morning.
- #4 Most forms of business have traditionally been located within social networks, communities and ecosystems. Traditional business was about relationships and succeeding through skill and ingenuity, but with social relations mitigating against cheating and pillage.
- #6 The C20th was about scale - Taylorism, specialisation and exchange, process over people, bureaucracy.
- #10 At best, this approach seeks to achieve efficiencies for repeatable processes, but much of business is about exceptions or as my friend Sig calls it "Barely Repeatable Processes" That is partly because of an obsession with individual efficiency rather than value.
- #12 Are C20th corporations efficient? NOW WAY!! "Process is an embedded reaction to prior stupidity" (Shirky) and arguably a testament to a lack of trust in people. In a process-driven organisation, exceptions or problems lead to new processes, which creates a gradual inflation of internal costs to the point that it becomes prohibitively expensive to get anything done in many large organisations today.
- #13 relationships, loyalty, commitment to each other. Good and bad. More efficient, resilient, lower cost models of coordination based on incentives and mutual interest rather than power and coercion Our new cultural ecosystem is more traditional, and closer to traditional models trade, business and socialisation than the new, dangerous ideas of the C20.
- #16 we have gone far enough with process - we now need to learn how to better support and augment human interaction and human intelligence
- #17 We are learning a lot about how people work individually and collectively. Nudge, behavioural economics: people are motivated by social connections / status / signals, not just carrot and stick or price signals.
- #19 At the Frankfurt E0 summit last November, Julien el Nestour from Schlumberger quoted a classic sociology study from William Foote Whyte about bowling among poor Italian gangs in Boston in the late 1930's. It turns out that gang members' position in the hierarchy were very good predictors of their bowling scores, and when they bowled without the gang, they would often score very differently. By a variety of means, the gang preserved its hierarchy and thereby inhibited individual performance.
- #20 Christakis talks about how behaviours are contagious. If a first degree contact is obese, you have a 45% increased risk of obesity, but this risk is not confined to people you even know - the effect is observable even at 4 degrees of separation. He demonstrates how positive behaviours, such as pay it forward, and even happiness are contagious too.
- #24 Corporate IT initially co-evolved with corporate structures, adopting the philosophy and structure of mid-C20th business. But by codifying the assumptions of the Taylorist corporation, it made them permanent. So, even as businesses have changed their view of what they do and how they do it, the internal systems they rely on have not. The result is a bizarre situation where IT is a cost-centre that can tell anybody in the business what tools to use and how to use them, rather then being a business enabler. This is a major barrier to change for existing businesses, whilst new competitors are emerging with no legacy to manage and therefore significantly lower costs and greater agility

- #43 Panic.com recently talked about a project status board that shared live support information among their team, which was a lovely example not only of open data, but also the power of data visualisation. Presumably the Obama administration understood the power of data visualisation when they hired Edward Tufte, the visualisation guru, to help explain the recovery plan to the public. In the UK, Windsor Council struggled with ways to cut their energy use in council buildings. Eventually they just published live usage data every 30 minutes, and without any enforcement, they saw consumption drop by over 15%. Every company has a wealth of untapped data, from the simple (clickstream data, sales figures) to the complex (sensor output, system output). Where it is not explicitly secret, why not open it up and let your employees make sense of it in their own way.
- #44 instead decide what success looks like on a local level for each use case and each user group - if these all add up then you will achieve ROI, but a bigger issue is ROA - how do you return value for the cost of the attention your people invest in your internal systems
