Enterprise 2.0 : success comes from organizational approach

August 3rd, 2008 · View Comments · Organization & Management, enterprise 2.0, strategy

This is what to conclude from this McKinsey Survey (by the way, it confirms what I’ve been thinking for years) that tries to bring us a view of the state of the art in enterprise 2.0 adoption.

Worrying wikipedia debate on enterprise 2.0

August 11th, 2007 · View Comments · enterprise 2.0, social computing
