"Last year, I looked at new hire practices and found some interesting methods:

Ensuring new hires understand the shadow or informal part of the organization through the use of tools such as network maps (Jon Katzenbach, Senior Partner of Booz & Company, author of The Wisdom of Teams).

Pairing with another worker or even tripling with two experienced workers and getting to work immediately, in order to reduce formal training (Menlo Innovations)"

"Frequent airplane passengers are likely to have read the following message prior to watching an in-flight movie: “the following film has been modified from its original version. it has been formatted to fit this screen.” for purposes of this airborne analogy, let’s fasten our seatbelts, power off any electronic devices, and firmly adjust our trays to the upright position. Better yet, let’s substitute the word film for new employee and the word screen for organization so it reads as: “the following new employee has been modified from its original version. it has been formatted to fit this organization.”"

"HR departments are familiar with using LinkedIn, Twitter and external social networks for leveraging talent, but what benefits can they get from using an internal social network at work? I joined the HR department at TIBCO® over a year ago, around the same time we were starting to use our internal social network tibbr®. Since then, I’ve become quite a power user. Why? Here are my top five reasons (in no particular order):"

" Over the next 20 years, nearly 80 million people will retire; that’s nearly 10,000 baby boomers a day. This trend will likely lead to significant generational shifts in the workforce, and the potential for a tremendous loss in intellectual capital as senior staff depart. The trend will also challenge organizations to more rapidly on-board new hires. ESS, alongside an effective change management program, can help an organization address these knowledge transfer needs."

"Les dernières stats dont je dispose sur facebook font état de 55 minutes par jour et par utilisateur en moyenne. Vu la poursuite de la progression du réseau social numéro un et le fait qu'il ait dépassé les sites Google en temps passé aux US, ce chiffre est probablement plus grand maintenant.

Considérons dans un second temps les 3h quotidiennes en moyenne passées devant la télévision.

Je suis convaincu que certains vont sur Facebook en regardant la TV, ou regardent la boite à Hertz en discutant sur Facebook de l'autre, on ne peut donc additionner ces temps de cerveau disponible."

"Overview: Launching and getting up and running is only half the battle when it comes to CoPs. CoP pundits are constantly advocating new social technologies, new processes, and new metrics. But for a CoP (and its members) to thrive requires embracing a few simple organizational change ideas, and making them concrete, authentic, and fun. The “Sustainable Communities Critical Success Factors” do just that. A sustainable Community of Practice (CoP) demonstrates measurable value to both the organization and CoP participants contributing relevant knowledge, and nourishing lasting and productive relationships. Any CoP, by definition, convenes to cross organizational boundaries, to build a shared body of knowledge, and to network. But a sustainable CoP comes together with a shared sense of passion and applies that to practical outputs. While most COPs fade, sustainable CoPs endure:

* Members express a spirit of volunteerism that beyond their personal objectives and “WIIFM”;
* CoP “working groups” generate relevant products that integrate diverse insights; and
* CoP outcomes show up in corporate metrics, and, ultimately CoP ideas influence corporate planning. "

""Onboarding isn't just an HR exercise, it's a business imperative," says Justin Bourke, research associate with Aberdeen and co-author of the report, noting that the initial experiences of new employees have a direct impact on the productivity and profitability of an organization, which makes it an opportunity for technology to wow them over.

Look at “understand the job” and see how much of a challenge that could be in today’s workplace. What do you do when everyone’s job is unique? The learning professional must be in constant contact with the realities of the everyone’s work. Interventions and support will likely be incremental, addressing changing circumstances, but using multipurpose platforms for information and knowledge-sharing. Understanding work needs good two-way communications.
