When I talk about enterprise 2.0 with people, they often say things about blogs, wikis, social networks etc… When I say “prediction markets” they look at we with flabbergasted eyes. I find very surprising that while it’s always mentioned as being a part of the enterprise 2.0 field on many other countries, it’s never mentioned [...]

Is enterprise 2.0 possible without positive thinking ?
March 16th, 2010 · View Comments · Organization & Management, enterprise 2.0
I’ll start with a statement that’s nothing new and won’t surprise anyone. We are all different, with our cultures, values, expectations, and even if things may look quite uniform at a local scale, the diversity of our world becomes obvious when we have to work in a globalized context.
In the same way, any idea, trend, [...]

New report on the state of enterprise 2.0
March 11th, 2010 · View Comments · enterprise 2.0
Cécile Demailly had the kindness to send me the report she made about the state of enterprise 2.0, a report than can be purchased here. It relies on the responses of people from 50 large organizations, often international, and the fact 48% respondants are french gives a very interesting picture of the double context (local [...]

About enterprise 2.0 and ERPs
March 11th, 2010 · View Comments · Organization & Management, enterprise 2.0
I’ll soon take a part in a webTV discussion which theme is “Is enterprise 2.0 the antithesis of ERP” organized by the great Techtoc.tv team (ok…that’s all in french). The preparatory discussions are rather heated, what’s promising for the debate. Meanwhile, I’d like to share some thoughts about the issue we’ll debate.
ERP ? That’s to [...]
Adopting new practices in multiple contexts
March 4th, 2010 · View Comments · Collaborative practices, Organization & Management, Social Networking, enterprise 2.0, social computing
Knowing that people have to face multiple contexts in their work, we have to make sure that new practices and tools are enablers in each situation. I do not write “social” or “2.0″ in purpose because these words are so tied to communities and social networks that we often forget that the underlying concepts may [...]

What place for communities in collaboration ?
March 2nd, 2010 · View Comments · Collaborative practices, Communities, Organization & Management, enterprise 2.0
The switch from a compartimentalized enterprise collaborating on a small perimeter to an enterprise that harnesses mass collaboration and leverages social networks and communties is much harder than many expected.
But is “transformation” a relevant word ?
First because collaboration has many differents levels and scopes that not exclusive but complementary. Enterprise 2.0 does not mean the [...]

Is Quality the 2.0 word for quantity ?
February 23rd, 2010 · View Comments · Organization & Management, enterprise 2.0
Before starting anything in any context, knowing what one want to achieve is essential. Some say that the answer is obvisous : sell. The famous “Nothing happens until something is sold” by Thomas Waston is still unconsciously embebbed in many things we do and we have to admit that being the best at anything is [...]

blueKiwi : the good use of conversations
February 19th, 2010 · View Comments · Social Networking, enterprise 2.0, social computing
The last “Virtual Enterpise 2.0 conference” was a good opportunity to visit some vendor’s booth to know what to expect from them in 2010. I finally had a look at blueKiwi to see what was new at our European leader.
[Disclaimer..: I joined blueKiwi at the versy beginning of the company and left in last décember. [...]

What’s new at Lotus ? Coherence, openness and value
February 19th, 2010 · View Comments · IT, Social Networking, enterprise 2.0, social computing
I rencently had the chance to attend Lotusphere in order to gauge the feeling of what what happening at IBM/Lotus. I took some time to write this post because I was not sure of the point of view I had to take.
It was obvious that “I saw tools doing this and this” was not relevant. [...]
