The Eight Must-Have Skills for Information Workers :: Infogineering - Master Your Infor... - 0 views

  •  
    These days, a high proportion of the population of developed countries are employed as information workers. That is, they don't produce physical goods, but instead spend their time creating, developing, sharing and consuming information. As a general rule, if you have a computer on your desk at work, you are an information worker. The chances are, you'll also use e-mail a lot of the time, and have access to the Web. Because desktop computers crept into our work-lives slowly, there was never a point where the corporate World stood up and said "right, everyone to the training room!" Instead, people often have had to learn the generic skills necessary to be an information worker themselves through trial and error.

Duly Consider: Implications of Higher 'Starting' Age Entering the Workforce - 0 views

  •  
    I will begin on a more anecdotal note, despite the very statistical nature of this article.

    When I was a kid, my mother let me borrow the lawnmower only after I had finished our own lawn, to go around the neighborhood and provide the same service to others who weren't blessed with kids to do yardwork. I got $5 or $6 a yard and I was rolling in the bucks; enough to buy any toy I wanted, large or small.

An Adoption Strategy for Social Software in the Enterprise - 0 views

  • There are two ways to go about encouraging adoption of social software: fostering grassroots behaviours which develop organically from the bottom-up; or via top-down instruction. In general, the former is more desirable, as it will become self-sustaining over time - people become convinced of the tools' usefulness, demonstrate that to colleagues, and help develop usage in an ad hoc, social way in line with their actual needs.
  • These key users should: be open to trying new software be influential amongst their peers, thus able to help promulgate usage have the support of their managers Users who are potential evangelists should be identified at every level of management, not just amongst the higher echelons, or amongst the workforce.
  • 3. Convert key users into evangelists Training in the form of short informal sessions (face-to-face or online) and ongoing on-demand support are the basics for encouraging adoption. Too much training or too formal a setting will put users off, and is usually unnecessary.

  • 2. Identify and understand key users Once you have identified key user groups, you need to know which users within that group are both influential and likely to be enthusiastic. Then consider how social software fits in to the context of their job, their daily working processes and the wider context of their group's goals.
  • Management support As well as supporting bottom-up adoption, it is beneficial for there to be top-down support, but that support has to be based on openness and transparency. Managers and team leaders must trust their staff to use the tools correctly, but they must also be forgiving if mistakes are made. There is always a learning curve associated with any new software, and some people find social software daunting because they are scared of what they perceive as a high risk of public humiliation. Managers and team leaders should: 1. Lead by example
  • 2. Lead by mandate
  • 3. Lead by reminding
  • 4. Ensure there is adequate support
