Wikibility of Innovation Oriented Workplaces - The CERN Case

This document discusses wikibility, which is defined as how effectively a wiki can be used, in innovation-oriented workplaces using the case of CERN. It begins by exploring the shift from Web 1.0 to Web 2.0 and how this enables new forms of knowledge management and collaboration. The research questions are identified as determining the key cultural drivers that make an organization wikible and how to audit an organization's wikibility. A model is presented that focuses on how organizational culture enables wiki use and drives innovation. Insights identify some initial cultural drivers like flexibility, sharing, and trust that wikis improve and that drive innovation through collaboration and openness to ideas.
