Source: http://susanitsa.wordpress.com/?p=239Thanks for all the help and suggestions on the collaborative work of art in my last post. I’m still getting to making corrections/suggestions that came in on the comments. In the meantime, you can help yourself to the diagram, as Nathan Gilliatt did. It’s now much improved, adding Business Intelligence. Just shoot me an email, and I’ll invite you to the collaborative space on Vyew. Also, thanks to < ... read more -
Circles of Expertise in 2.0 for Biz
by Susan Scrupski on Jul 07, 2008 - 06:50 PM read 264 times
Source: http://susanitsa.wordpress.com/?p=238For a long while now, Jevon MacDonald and I have been grousing about how the different players involved in delivering 2.0 solutions to business can often be confused and misunderstood. We started working on a graphic, which I’ll happily “open source” for anyone’s input or for re-purposing. Just send me a note and I’ll invite you to the shared space we are working on at Vyew.

Andrew McAfee: Rebel with a Cause
by Susan Scrupski on Jul 02, 2008 - 08:18 AM read 130 times
Source: http://susanitsa.wordpress.com/?p=237A number of us at nGenera have been discussing internally what it means to communicate and create a supportive, yet fluid culture in the 2.0 era. One of our guys asked the question, “what was your ‘a-ha’ moment when Web 2.0 suddenly made sense and you became a true believer?” I’ve had a number of “a-ha” moments, but my very first was probably when I disagreed with Andrew ... read more -
Prepare Ye: the We Generation is Upon Us.

Source: http://susanitsa.wordpress.com/?p=234So, yeah. I wanted to change the world in my 20s. In some ways, I thought I could with Unix and my first Mac. But, mostly, I just ended up talking about it a lot to anyone who cared to listen. Today’s 20-somethings have the tools to effect change like I never did. They have instantaneous access to information, strong social networks with which to groupthink and self-organize, and ... read more -

Source: http://susanitsa.wordpress.com/?p=232It’s that time again when I feel compelled not only to wrap up highlights of the Enterprise 2.0 conference, but to divulge my thinking on where we are in the progression of widespread 2.0 adoption — in our personal lives and at work. It’s hard to top my impassioned first post on this topic from last year: A Year’s Summary of Personal Reflection. Not only was ... read more -

Josh’s topic was “Winning in a world transformed by social media.” He cautioned the audience to not focus on technologies, but rather relationships and the prevailing deeper social trends creating the “groundswell.” Bernoff describes the groundswell as a “social trend in which people use technologies to get the things ... read more -

Source: http://susanitsa.wordpress.com/?p=223Shame, shame, shame. I realize Social Media is the new black in the art of PR, but how irritating is this? Tammy Erickson, our in-house workforce guru, published a post today on women’s progress in the workplace on her Harvard Business School discussion leader blog. Her first comment was from Ms. Kimberly Rosenberg who lavishes her with praise then notso deftly segues into how she is using Microsoft Office ... read more -

What I-know-I-dont-know about E2.0 and SAP from Sapphire 08
by Susan Scrupski on May 09, 2008 - 02:40 PM read 425 times
Source: http://susanitsa.wordpress.com/?p=220My bad. Sapphire ‘08 was an enormous field of opportunity to mine SAP intelligence on what the company is doing regarding Enterprise 2.0 initiatives. Somehow, I missed that opportunity and find myself with a lot of follow-up todos. A group of us had back-to-back meetings with SAP execs both Monday and Tuesday. To be perfectly frank, I learned more about what SAP is doing in Enterprise ... read more -

Whats your nGen Era Story?
by Susan Scrupski on Apr 29, 2008 - 08:38 PM read 2260 times
Source: http://susanitsa.wordpress.com/?p=213BSG Alliance, my employer, changed its name to nGenera (en-gen-ER-a) this week. I really like the new name and logo. Because we’ve grown so fast (acquiring 5 companies in less than a year), it was important to mash-up all the humans under one single identity and brand. I’m sure someone in my company will correct me if I’m wrong, but I think it was ... read more -
Crowd clout du jour did you say Facebook?

Source: http://susanitsa.wordpress.com/?p=212I was flipping through The Economist this morning (one of two publications I subscribe to) and this headline caught my eye: Beware grannies on Facebook The story details about how hundreds of small investors self-organized and forced a decision reversal and reimbursement of investment funds. This is a terrific example of the power of citizen collaboration and crowd-clout. I’ve ... read more -
Corporate Antisocial Behavior: the Enemy is Us.
by Susan Scrupski on Apr 22, 2008 - 05:31 PM read 1088 times
Source: http://susanitsa.wordpress.com/?p=209This bugaboo of a word “social” is the irritant with social software in the enterprise. Social just has too many negative connotations in corporate circles from socialism to socialites. I once heard from a Wall Street executive that he was no longer permitted to use the word “social” when describing 2.0 opportunities. It made senior management uncomfortable. Similarly, if there is more ... read more -

Source: http://susanitsa.wordpress.com/?p=206On the eve of the sixties social revolution, my older brother turned me onto science fiction writer Robert Heinlein. “Stranger in a Strange Land” is one of Heinlein’s classics. It’s the story of a human raised on Mars who returns to Earth and introduces radical transformative ideas to Earth’s culture. This book, originally written in 1961, reappeared in the recesses ... read more -

FASTForward 08 on the ground.

Source: http://susanitsa.wordpress.com/?p=204It was the bus ride home from the analyst/blogger dinner that pulled this gargantuan Search Lovefest together for me. I sat next to an American product manager who lives in Oslo (FAST’s headquarters) who said, “Without search, there is no web 2.0.” I thought about that and realized, maybe he’s right. Even in Enterprise 2.0, “S” is the first letter in McAfee’s mnemonic, SLATES. The ... read more -
