Tearing Down Business "Silos" by Carol Kinsey Goman: The Sideroad - 0 views

  • Create alignment.

  • Communicate transparently.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Focus on innovation.
  • The organization disintegrates into a group of isolated camps, with little incentive to collaborate, share information, or team up to pursue critical outcomes. Various groups develop impervious boundaries, neutralizing the effectiveness of people who have to interact across them. Local leaders focus on serving their individual agendas - often at the expense of the goals of the rest of the organization. The resulting internal battles over authority, finances and resources destroy productivity, and jeopardize the achievement of corporate objectives. Talented (and frustrated) employees walk out the door - or worse yet, stay and simply stop caring.
  • Reward collaboration.

  • And I think that’s probably a result of how it was initially rolled out. In some places it’s led to a lack of understanding around how everyone can make an ESN work for them – using it to meet their specific challenges and in a way that best suits each individual. It’s definitely not a question of trawling through a live feed to find something that may or may not be relevant to them, an ESN, used properly, is so much more than that. And it’s up to us in our team to really bring that story to life for each employee. A mammoth task with over 100,000 of us! 
  • One word: COLLABORATION. With our size, geographic scale and employee numbers an ESN, with all the opportunities for collaboration that it affords, is a game-changer.

Letting go of Twitter's other big number. And learning to listen. - NixonMcInnes - 0 views

www.nixonmcinnes.co.uk/...-number-and-learning-to-listen Twitter follower following social media womenslearningstudio
shared by Doris Reeves-Lipscomb on 16 Feb 15 - No Cached
  • witter gives us many ways to find relevant conversations. There are a range of searches, lists, groups, hashtags and apps to help us navigate to the people and the comments that need our attention. For most brands, the simple ‘following’ mechanism (great for personal users) is just too clumsy a tool to have much meaning or utility in itself, so more nuanced forms of listening have to take place. To judge an account by a ‘following’ number is to draw conclusions about the ways a person or brand uses Twitter to listen.

    Very good article on not overinflating value of our followers or what whom we follow says about us. Instead, look for value in other ways such as how those whom you follow/those who follow really listen to what is being said in social media. by Clive Andrews, NixonMcInnes (UK social media firm), 7/4/2012

  • Poor Joan Didion: "There is always a point in the writing of a piece when I sit in a room literally papered with false starts and cannot put one word after another and imagine that I have suffered a small stroke, leaving me apparently undamaged but actually aphasic."
  • And yet complain he did. For a while I was a good friend, listening with cuticle-picking patience and reminding him of his successes. Finally I’d had it, mostly because in that moment he reminded me so much of myself. When I realized he’d become a magnifying mirror of my own bad habits and irritating tics, I said to him: "Stop having so many feelings and just do the f-ing work."

    Blog post by Jane Perdue on Leadership Development, February 10. How small nonprofits have to work with only some of the ts crossed and "i"s dotted. Excerpt Effort and ideas can be as fragile as grandma's porcelain tea cup. Drink from them. Sometimes you have to meet people where they are and start from there. That starting place may not be ideal according to your standards, but at least it's a beginning. Sometimes good enough is enough. Most work is beautiful alchemy-part art, part science. Go with it. "

You Need a Community, Not a Network - Brook Manville - Harvard Business Review - 0 views

    Really good blog post by Brook Manville, 9/5/14, HBR on how the "thin we" becomes the "thick we" excerpt: To borrow language from the philosopher Avishai Margalit, the web is a "thin we" type of network. Participants tend to belong for individualistic reasons. They have little in common with other members, and they're reluctant to do much for the network. A big goal requires a "thick we" network - a community of people who feel responsible for collaborating toward a shared purpose that they see as superseding their individual needs. Members of a community - as opposed to a simple network - expect relationships within the group to continue, and they even hold one another accountable for effort and performance. When networks develop into communities, the results can be powerful. Look at the accomplishments of Wikipedia contributors, open-source software developers who find and fix bugs in Linux, or doctors who help each another with difficult diagnoses as part of the Sermo social network.
