One more article that adds to the already imposing amount of Gen-Y related things. I (finally) recently came across something really worth on the subject in the latest issue of the HBR, an analysis relying on a survey conducted across 50 multinational companies and that confirms what we’ve been seing on the ground, even if [...]

• Although the fact new generations were transforming the use of IT, there was no global study to quantify and qualify it.
• The methodology was neutral and [...]

Enterprise 2.0 : my predictions for 2009
December 18th, 2008 · View Comments · HR & Management 2.0, Human resources, Organization & Management, Social Networking, enterprise 2.0, knowledge-economy, social computing

That said, I will [...]

July 31st, 2008 · View Comments · HR & Management 2.0, Human resources, enterprise 2.0
One of the points of the generational aspect of enterprise 2.0 is that we have to deal with both people who master tools but is not experienced enough to design a suitable use in a business driven context and people who master business issues but is not easy with the new tools and find it [...]

When people discuss enterprise 2.0 things often shift to Generation Y for whom new tools and practices are a part of their DNA. But I don’t think we have to consider enterprise 2.0 is about those young people and that older ones are barrier to change.
