Is Enterprise 2.0 Just for Knowledge Workers?

Does that seem right? Only the knowledge workers have something to contribute in the emergent ethos that is social software? The reality is that knowledge workers have been participating while the rest of the company has been doing their own thing.

Connecting ideas with communities

I use the chasm model to explain my professional work of 1) seeing what is ready to cross the chasm by 2) staying connected to the innovators & being an early adopter so that 3) I can help mainstream organizations. It’s a good graphic summary of my consulting practice.

How Companies Increase Innovation

hose ideas, however, don’t really come from nowhere. Instead, they are typically at the edge of a company’s radar screen, and sometimes a bit beyond: trends in peripheral industries, unserved needs in foreign markets, activities that aren’t part of the company’s core business. To be truly innovative, companies sometimes have to change their frames of reference, extend their search space. New ways of thinking and organization can be required as well.

Does Self-Censorship Help Innovation? The Enterprise 2.0 Approach

The next time someone tells you that you need lots of ideas, stop, think and work out the outcomes you want before you go collecting thousands, and thousands, and potentially more thousands of fluffy, non-relevant ideas that go nowhere.

The gist of Mark’s post is that encouraging the contribution of ideas from all quarters is actually counterproductive. He prescribes the concept of an “appropriate” number of ideas.

Eloge de l'incertitude

La réalité, c'est que la crise n'est que l'écume des choses qui vient révéler l'immobilisme face à la nécessité de prendre acte que le monde change. Et le fait est que le monde change vite et va changer encore plus vite car, justement, les crises ont cette faculté de faire bouger, de révéler que le train est déjà parti du quai, en fait.

Mais affronter l'incertitude n'est pas qu'une conclusion au présent, c'est aussi une des dure leçon de la partie vraie de la crise. Si celle-ci s'est produite, c'est notamment parce que personne n'a réagit aux signes annonceurs. Pourquoi ? non pas qu'il n'y a eu aucun signe annonceur, simplement que ceux-ci n'étaient pas dans le tableau de bord ou que le signal qui y apparaissait n'était pas identifié.

Something about Team Work

There is something about team work which is important in the society today. I glanced through the other day, on a newspaper article, regarding how workers nowadays do not need to be micro-managed. Instead the managers is suppose to provide room and space for the worker to enable them to demonstrate their ability and facilitate their creative thinking to be brought into an organization. Often time, the idea provided by this empowered workers may turn out to be one of those that has the most impact to the organization.
