People are Talking on 2009-06-01

“There is very practical value to tracking these online posts. You don’t have
sales data for three months from now, but you have the online postings right
now. This makes it possible for companies to fine-tune their marketing and not
wait for the sales to go down.” -
I think business leaders, including myself, will be looking for more case
studies that prove there is a direct link between online conversation and sales.Your readers may be interested in my ongoing book report on Groundswell.
There are real life case studies on how social media has/is impacting
businesses.In fact, chapter five talks about social media chatter and buzz being a
leading indicator of sales of Mini cars in the U.S. MotiveQuest was the backend
app/service used for this I believe.http://marketingthatmatters.blogspot.com/search/label/groundswell

Engineering Firm Charts Ties - WSJ.com on 2009-06-01

Rob Cross, a University of Virginia management professor, says the maps help
firms uncover work-force dynamics hidden by organizational charts and
performance reviews. He leads a group of around 100 companies testing network
analysis, including Microsoft Corp. and Pfizer Inc. He recently asked employees
of about 20 companies to identify colleagues who have helped them perform
better; about two-thirds of the names weren't on the firms' previous lists of
top performers, Mr. Cross says. -
Mr. Gulas worked to remove those bottlenecks, repeating the analysis annually to
check progress. He sent U.S. workers to fill vacation openings in the U.K.,
because the analysis showed those groups didn't talk much. He hired executive
coaches for his top managers to help them become less authoritarian and more
collaborative. When the director of the Pasadena group resisted, he re-assigned
her engineers to others. "Resistance is always about control," says Micki
Nelson, who oversees technology under Mr. Gulas. - 3 more annotations...
