Irving Wladawsky-Berger: Complex Sociotechnical Systems: the Case for a New Field of Study

Fri, 18 May 2012 07:55:18 -0000

Comments:

Digital technologies are enabling us to develop systems with huge numbers of interconnected components and sophisticated software that infuses them with seemingly unlimited capabilities. They are penetrating just about every nook and cranny of the economy and of society in general. And, they are profoundly changing the way all organizations operate, as well as our working and personal lives. - Marc Buyens

Harold Jarche » Enterprise 2.0 and Social Business are Hollow Shells without Democracy

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 17:15:20 -0000

Comments:

A guiding goal in much of my work is the democratization of the workplace. Democracy is our best structure for political governance and I believe it should be the basis of our workplaces as well. As work and learning become integrated in a networked society, I see great opportunities to create better employment models. - Marc Buyens

Exceeding the Benefits of Complexity? A Fractal Model for the Social Business Era « On Web Strategy | Dion Hinchcliffe

Tue, 13 Sep 2011 16:40:12 -0000

Comments:

"Over the weekend my friend and industry colleague JP Rangaswami wrote an insightful post that pondered how we have gone about delivering on customer experiences as connected to our back-end capabilities. Specifically, he explored an issue that is increasingly challenging many of the large-company CIOs I speak with these days: That the present rates of change demanded of the accumulation of 20-30 years of legacy business systems is greatly exceeding the ability of our enterprises and associated software “stacks” to deliver on them, particularly as cloud, social, and mobile dramatically transform computing today.

The Big Failure of Enterprise 2.0 Social Business | Beyond the Cube

Sun, 28 Aug 2011 09:14:32 -0000

Comments:

"This isn’t a “shock & awe” title to merely draw you in. This also isn’t a blanket claim from an “expert” who has never been in the trenches that “social business is dead”. Enterprise 2.0 (aka social business) is not dead. Significant progress continues to be made. More and more enterprises have social business strategies and efforts for both marketing & internal collaboration. However, enterprises with several years of Enterprise 2.0 efforts under their belt have failed to reach the tipping point and cross into mainstream adoption of social collaboration . Coincidentally, Dion Hinchcliffe recently noted in The Path to Co-Creating a Social Business, the existence of the fissure with older collaborative channels on one side and the option to voluntarily engage socially on the other. I believe this is a sign post that we must pay attention to and make adjustments or social business could fall deeply into the rabbit hole where knowledge management (KM) efforts of past, already reside.
