Managing Remote Employees Training - 0 views

  • Managing remote employees can prove rewarding, liberating and fulfilling…or you can feel like an empty nest parent whose kids don’t stay in touch. Building teamwork, trust and trackability are three cornerstones of effective remote management of virtual employees. Learn how to build credibility and confidence with a virtual workforce. Micro-managing vs. micro-monitoring. Often, the difference between resentment and resilience occurs in the subtleties of remote employee management.

In networks, cooperation trumps collaboration. | Social Media Today - 0 views

  • In networks, cooperation trumps collaboration. Collaboration happens around some kind of plan or structure, while cooperation presumes the freedom of individuals to join and participate. Cooperation is a driver of creativity. Stephen Downes commented here on the differences:collaboration means ‘working together’. That’s why you see it in market economies. markets are based on quantity and mass.cooperation means ’sharing’. That’s why you see it in networks. In networks, the nature of the connection is important; it is not simply about quantity and mass …You and I are in a network – but we do not collaborate (we do not align ourselves to the same goal, subscribe to the same vision statement, etc), we *cooperate*We are only beginning to realize how we can use networks as our primary form of living and working

  • implementing social business (a network mode) within corporations (institutional + market modes). Real network models are new modes, not modifications of the old ones, and cooperation is how work gets done.
  • Wirearchy: a dynamic multi-way flow of power and authority based on information, knowledge, trust and credibility, enabled by interconnected people and technology.Heterarchies are networks of elements in which each element shares the same “horizontal” position of power and authority, each playing a theoretically equal role [wikipedia].Chaordic refers to a system of governance that blends characteristics of chaos and order. The term was coined by Dee Hock the founder and former CEO of the VISA credit card association [wikipedia].
  • Combine the TIMN perspective with the Cynefin framework, and I created this table, looking at how work gets done:Shifting our emphasis from collaboration, which still is required to get some work done, to cooperation, in order to thrive in a networked enterprise, means reassessing some of our assumptions and work practices. For instance:The lessening importance of teamwork, versus exploring outside the organization may change our perceptions about being a “team player”.Detailed roles and job descriptions are inadequate for work at the edge.You cannot train people to be social.Collaboration is only part of working in networks. Cooperation is also necessary, but it’s much less controllable than our institutions, hierarchies and HR practices would like to admit.

    Este articulo realmente me inspiro, de alguna manera me dio una clave para dar estructura a el caminito hacia el futuro del trabajo y la evolucion de los sistemas y modelos que estamos viviendo. es algo futurista, considerando que lo que hace la punta pasa tiempo hasta que se convierte en mainstream... pero nos habla de procesos y dinamicas y formas realmente diferentes, really open. y eso requiere de evolucion interna , de metas, de emociones, de coportamiento, y de ideas. Creo que ya hay generaciones haciendolo y listas, pero el mundo de las organizaciones y empresas aun esta liderado por gente del viejo mundo, de mi generacion inclusive. Es un reto usar la plasticidad del cerebro para trabajar de nuestro lado enfrente de ls esque mas y patrones aprendidos. De forma que creo que para seguir los pasos de ese caminito hace fata un entrenamiento personal mas alla que la asesoria de estructura. Primer paso: usar las herramientas. -En este punto estamos nosotros ofreciendo apoyo; como planteamos los siguientes pasos?- segundo paso: conocer lo posible tercer paso : trabajar las areas de reto para poder caminar en lo posible (normalmente de proceso personal primero) cuarto paso : entrar a la nueva estructura y navegar en ella, tomar las oportunidades, crearlas, vivirlo.

Brian Burke - A Member of The Gartner Blog Network - 0 views

  • The gamification of social networking and location based services as exemplified by Foursquare, Gowalla and SCVNGR are probably the most recognizable with badges, mayorships and rewards offered for check-ins.  Game mechanics has also been applied to engage people, change behaviours and innovate in many different fields including innovation management, health, training, employee performance, and even social issues.
  • engage stakeholders, improve performance and drive innovation
  • The gamification of innovation and enterprise architecture is a natural extension of design thinking as it is a human-centric and engaging means of harnessing the power of the collective to drive innovation and change.  I believe that game mechanics are going to have a huge impact on the way organizations engage stakeholders, innovate and evolve, and we are just now on the leading edge of that trend

Gartner Says By 2015, More Than 50 Percent of Organizations That Manage Innovation Proc... - 0 views

  • By 2015, more than 50 percent of organizations that manage innovation processes will gamify those processes
  • By 2014, a gamified service for consumer goods marketing and customer retention will become as important as Facebook, eBay or Amazon, and more than 70 percent of Global 2000 organizations will have at least one gamified application
  • Gamification describes the broad trend of employing game mechanics to non-game environments such as innovation, marketing, training, employee performance, health and social change

  • The goals of gamification are to achieve higher levels of engagement, change behaviors and stimulate innovation. The opportunities for businesses are great – from having more engaged customers, to crowdsourcing innovation or improving employee performance.
  • four principal means of driving engagement using gamification: 1. Accelerated feedback cycles. In the real world, feedback loops are slow (e.g., annual performance appraisals) with long periods between milestones. Gamification increases the velocity of feedback loops to maintain engagement. 2. Clear goals and rules of play. In the real world, where goals are fuzzy and rules selectively applied, gamification provides clear goals and well-defined rules of play to ensure players feel empowered to achieve goals. 3. A compelling narrative. While real-world activities are rarely compelling, gamification builds a narrative that engages players to participate and achieve the goals of the activity. 4. Tasks that are challenging but achievable. While there is no shortage of challenges in the real world, they tend to be large and long-term. Gamification provides many short-term, achievable goals to maintain engagement.
  • Where games traditionally model the real world, organizations must now take the opportunity for their real world to emulate games," said Mr. Burke. "Enterprise architects must be ready to contribute to gamification strategy formulation and should try at least one gaming exercise as part of their enterprise context planning efforts this year
