E20 as a mean to support the organizational performance goals of HR

As already mentioned in my recent blog post we are strongly heading towards a more HR und Organizational Development driven discussion at our events like the E20 SUMMIT and the German IOM SUMMIT. I therefore took my Easter break to digg down a little bit into the current understanding of the HR and OD views [...]

Demystifying the gamification idea for the Enterprise 2.0

In a recent article on eWeek Chris Preimesberger features Jive Software as the “leader of the pack” in bringing the “gamification” idea to the intranet. While I was first enthrilled about the headline of the article, I was disappointed at the end. Why? Because the article leaves the reader unclear in which extend the solutions [...]

Walking the Talk on the Search for the Social Business Excellence

e20s

It’s been a while that I have published some content in this place – and it’s hard to find into blogging-mode again after weeks of not contributing. After all many contributions about the outcomes of the E20 SUMMIT have already been made (and put together in this wiki system by Jim Worth). Therefore to add [...]

Perceptions on the importance of the cultural background to the adoption strategy

Since we are preparing the E20 SUMMIT I have become a regular visitor in Paris and participant of the French Enterprise 2.0 discussions – and I have to say that the observations I made during my trips and meetups support once more my view that there is no such thing as a generalized adoption strategy.

Why Taylorism prevails in the knowledge economy (and what to do about it)

Post by our Guest Blogger Cecil Dijoux I have been blogging quite substantially about Lean Management lately and I have noticed a common purpose with Agile methodologies (which get me blogging 4 years ago) and Enterprise 2.0 (which has kept my blogging busy for the last 2 years) : they all address complexity and permanent [...]

E2.0 project excellence far from being defined soundly

We are just back from our German IOM SUMMIT which happened to take place in Köln the last two days. The event was once more an intense discussion of best practices about the changes that come along with the introduction of social software initiatives within the enterprise. Though primarily focussed on a more operative level [...]

In the Search for the Social Business Excellence

Last week Thomas and I have been to Paris to start our pre-”E20 SUMMIT” events with a first round-up of meetings with partners and the E20 community in Paris. Everybody is quite excited about the event to come to Paris – also with high expectations in regards to the insights that it may offer.  Regarding [...]

Social objects as explanation of the E20 significance of social messaging

The search for the key triggers to Enterprise 2.0 adoption is still on-going. Many contributions have already been made, but the master plan is yet to be defined (if there is even one to be identified!). In our “Enterprise 2.0 Adoption” paper Joachim summarized quite some concepts and ideas of last year’s Enterprise 2.0 SUMMIT. [...]

Opening up our blogging efforts to more than our view!

As Bjoern mentioned in his post last week one important idea while rethinking and relaunching our blogging efforts was to open up again our blogging approach to the E20 community. Already the old “Enterprise2Open” blog was an open platform for a variety of contributions at the beginning. As time went by (and maybe also as [...]

E20 SUMMIT is starting off with a new date!

We are living in a world of changes and constant adaption – sometimes the plans defined yesterday are no longer valid today as the environment has changed. This is also the description of what is happening to our conference plans and actions every now and then – and has happened this summer for the planned [...]
