Collaboration as it is – Working together, alone – Part 1 | The Xpragmatic View

Sat, 04 Feb 2012 11:00:09 -0000

Comments:

"Like most things in life, collaboration is a simple thing. However, we humans have tendency not to think too much about simple things and then, they seem to become complex, since they rarely work out as planned. This paper is an exercise in simple thinking about simple things so that we might understand what makes them really work." - Marc Buyens

Sat, 28 May 2011 09:32:23 -0000

Comments:

Customer-centricity or getting closer to customers is often the focus of many executive meetings I attend these days. The question always arises, “how can we use new media to get closer to customers?” The answer is not, develop a social media strategy to start engaging with customers. The answer is, change. - Marc Buyens

Seth's Blog: Economies of small

Tue, 19 Apr 2011 16:19:27 -0000

Comments:

Economies of scale are well understood. Bigger factories are more efficient, bigger distribution networks are more efficient, bigger ad campaigns can be more efficient. It's often hard to defeat a major competitor, particularly if the market is looking for security and the status quo.
But what about the economies of small? Is being bigger an intrinsic benefit in and of itself? - Marc Buyens
