It notes that IBM Connections aims to facilitate work through conversations and social networks, seeing conversations as the new documents.

Maybe we need to look into it in a different manner…
• If 15% show high
engagement, what about
the “other” 85%?
• 5% fluctuation * 1,000
employees = 50 * 43,000 =
2,150,000 EUR
– Excluding side effects (i.e. think of losing
sellers)
•To reach optimal
productivity, a new hire
usually needs 3.5 years

Maybe, we are part of the problem…
“For 70% of Executives, the
accuracy of their data is what
keeps them up at night.” (Forbes
Insight)
“Only one third of our
decisions are correct.”
(Martina Koederitz, IBM GM DACH)
“We ignore about 80% of
our data.” (Christoph Keese, Axel Springer AG)

Where conversations are the new ‘documents’
• “Work is communication.
Conversations and
narratives are the new
documents.
Conversations cannot be
controlled. The only way
to influence
conversations is to take
part in them”
