Gamification, dashboards, search and enterprise failure

"I see gamification, dashboards and search as signs of enterprise failure!

There I said it, humbly.

They all signify a lack of process frameworks that can run the processes. And just to clarify, industrial processes are not the only processes, all we do is a process as in "steps of activities with a goal", and that should cover all that we do in organisations, in business, in enterprises. And for a process to happen, for flows to flow, one needs a framework, structured, flexible or manual. Just like water requires a riverbed or a pipeline. But if the framework is manual (bucket passing anyone? Monday morning meetings, budgets and reporting anyone?) then the creative value-creation work will suffer."

gamification dashboards search valuecreation process BRP reward

The classic intrinsic rewards are "mastery, purpose and autonomy". Basic, always worked, hugely powerful. But these three intrinsic rewards requires a flow- or process framework that can run the processes in the background, otherwise most of the effort will go into making the flow flow, non-value creation, and that kills all three with a vengeance.
And therein lies the issue, if there is no "automatic" process framework - and there is only manual frameworks for knowledge work today; meetings, hierarchies, budgets, reports - then the intrinsic rewards are hard to attain if at all.

- Hence the claim that the need for extrinsic rewards as per most "gamification" efforts being a clear sign of no proper process framework, and hence of enterprise failure.
- a dashboard only shows that it's all manual and time and effort is wasted on making the flow flow. A proper process based system would have one button for the task at hand, and perhaps a few for reports/views and no need for a sorting desk, aka dashboard. A clear sign of lack of process framework and hence enterprise failure.
- A proper process based system, or process framework would know what your task is and thus know what information to deliver you at the same time so search would be superfluous (not all the time of course, but mostly).
  
  So when I see search then I see a lack of proper process framework again.

Is There Really A Social Business Imperative?

"As far as I know, the phrase “Social Business Imperative” comes from the CEO of Jive Software, Tony Zingale (you can see a great slide deck of his on this topic here). But the idea certainly seems to also underpin any number of Jive competitor products – Moxie Spaces, SocialText, Cisco, Leverage Software, etc., etc. The idea of the social business is gaining attention and software makers are fighting to corner the market on the idea for their own product. So it’s an imperative to them."

First: The Social Business Imperative

I’m hearing this concept and even this specific phrase more and more.

As far as I know, the phrase “Social Business Imperative” comes from the CEO of Jive Software, Tony Zingale (you can see a great slide deck of his on this topic here).

So it’s an imperative to them.
We can expect more spending on IT, but companies are still going to have to be very precise about how they prioritize projects.

- That’s great. But you know what people were excited about at the SharePoint Palooza sessions I listened to? Dashboards.
  
  People wanted to see how do you take scattered data from different parts of the organization and tie them into a single view that tells, at a glance, the story of how the company is performing right now?
- It’s purely observational, but based on what I saw piquing peoples’ interests, I just didn’t come away feeling like “social business” was as much of an imperative as “integrated business”.
- All Social Businesses Are Enterprise 2.0 Businesses, But Not All Enterprise 2.0 Businesses Are Social Businesses.
