What if the future of organizations was SOO (or SPO) ?

The idea of this post came to me after a meeting with someone working for the French Armament Comission, a few month ago. When he asked me “do you know what our job is ?” I answered, hesitant, “Choose the weapons the army will use”. “It’s a bit of that, but it’s more complex”. “Really [...]

Giving problem solving a framework

Since today collaboration means solving problems together, it’s important companies provide their employees with a problem solving framework.
Why not a methodology or a process ?
In fact both are needed but the most important lack is about the framework.
There are high level issues where problem solving needs a strong methodology, a dedicated taskforce (that’s what I [...]

Meet blueKiwi at the Enterprise 2.0 Conference

Even if I rarely speak about my employer, many of you know I’m working for blueKiwi and sometimes ask we who we are, what we are doing etc…
Those who are presently attending the Enterprise 2.0 Conference in Boston will be able to know more about us and meet some of our people. Unfortunately (for me) [...]

How to link formal and informal within the enterprise : the “still” company

Since intangible assets only create value when they support formal business process, enterprises don’t have to create an enterprise 2.0 organization relying on informal but a system allowing formal and structured activities to take advantage from what isn’t.
If we want to visualize that, the “still” metaphor seems very relevant to me.

Social tools are tools before being social

Obviously many people are wondering how to make scocial tools within the enterprise. Knowing that the use of these tools highly depends on what people want to do with them and that the only existing reference is the web 2.0, we get randomly assembled projects.
On its side, the enterprise is afraid of giving up control [...]

What’s the next big thing in HCM ? From Human Capital Assessment to Realization

It’s a question I asked to myself after having read this note from Thomas Otter who was wondering what will be the next innovation in HCM Software.
Even if everything can be improved, I think that “administrative” systemes won’t experience a real revolution. In the other hand I think the pure “Human Capital” side is very [...]

Connecting formal and informal knowlegde to create business value.

If enterprise 2.0 is to develop informal networks and tacit knowledge formalization within the enterprise, there’s still one question to be answered : how does all the spent energy contributes to create business value ?
Actually, I consider it as a keypoint in every project I manage : the use of all this intangible patrimony for [...]

Web 2.0 is knocking on French companies’ doors

A few words about a recentTNS Sofres survey about the use of web 2.0 in France and user’s expectations.
Just one thing to take into consideration : the following numbers are about web 2.0 users in France that’s to say, according to the survey, 58% of the population. I think it’s even more : people who [...]

Worrying wikipedia debate on enterprise 2.0

There’s an ongoing debate not only about enterprise 2.0 definition on wikipedia but also on whether such a definition has to exist or not.
There’s what it seems to me being the “original” definition by A. McAfee :”enterprise 2.0 is an enterprise that uses blogs and wikis”. AlthoughI consider this definition is too restrictive because it  [...]
