Let’s assume that, through a mix a community management and socio-collaborative management, businesses manage to make information and people for identifiable and accessible in order to facilitate and accelerate workaday execution, solve problems and invent tomorow’s products and operating models. Even if that sounds seducing, there’s something wrong in the reasonning.
All these dynamics and informations [...]

What makes the value of shared information ?
September 18th, 2009 · View Comments · Information / knowledge management, Organization & Management, information
As I often say, we often complain about software while the problem is the way we use it. It’s the reason why many people consider that the largest part of spam they receive at word comes from their colleagues, their hierarchy.
That’s why I liked this Dilbert strip about information sharing. We can also conclude that [...]

A good example of process socialization is about decision making. A few weeks ago I read this interesting paper from Olivier Sibony (Associate Director at McKinsey). Since the article is in French I hope Google Translator will provide you with a good english translation.
What is it about ?
Making the right decisions is key to be [...]

Considering the gap between management 2.0 and enterprise 2.0
February 24th, 2009 · View Comments · HR & Management 2.0, Organization & Management, enterprise 2.0
I’ve been neglecting the management 2.0 topic for a long time although it was what this blog was about since 2005. Last years I slowely slipped from management 2.0 to enterprise 2.0, even if I find it sad that there were so many people to discuss about of make companies use 2.0 tools than people [...]

What management has to learn from the Airbus vs. Boeing competition

- the traditional divisional structure is not relevant to create value
- companies will have to fav our long term value creation instead of focusing on achieving short terms objectives.
- in order to do that they’ll have to [...]

Do (some) managers sabotage their organization ?
June 12th, 2008 · View Comments · Organization & Management
Two people from the CIA gave a talk during last Enteprise 2.0 conference. They cited a 1944 manual which was about sabotage a business from the inside :
(1) Insist on doing everything through “channels.” Never permit short-cuts to be taken in order to expedite decisions.
(2) Make “speeches.” Talk as frequently as possible and [...]

Quotations between provocation and good sense
June 3rd, 2008 · View Comments · Organization & Management, Quotations, Social Networking, enterprise 2.0
Sometimes I find sentences which are really worth by themselves, that have a lot of meaning, whether in or out of their original context. I often bookmark them but this time I think they’re worth a post. As a matter of fact I find two series of nice quotations in two posts I recently read [...]
