A blog about working smarter, not necessarily harder, through social networking, digital technologies
If you have been following this blog for a while, you would know how I have been blogging for a good number of times about one of those topics that people keep asking me about to share my two cents of the conversation: Social Software Governance and what IBM is doing about it. My short … Continue reading On Governance and Compliance – IBM’s Social Computing Guidelines Webcast
I am sure that plenty of you folks out there may already know about this, but I thought I would share a few thoughts about it, just in case you may have missed it. If you would remember, some time ago, I actually put together a number of different blog entries where I was sharing … Continue reading IBM’s Social Computing Guidelines – Now Updated!
A few weeks back I wrote about the first of the 5 pillars I keep using with clients, time and time again, whenever they are embarking on the so-called Digital Transformation journey. Back in that blog entry I mentioned how having the right purpose is the main trigger to get things going. From there onwards it all … Continue reading Social Computing Guidelines and Why You Would Still Need Them

I have mentioned already a couple of times how my first contact with social software tools inside IBM, my current employer, was around the year 2000, when one of the communities I still belong to (And still one of my favourite ones, too!) decided to put together a wiki where we could all contribute and … Continue reading How IBM Uses Social Media to Spur Employee Innovation
After the wonderful Lotusphere Comes to You 2009 events (in both Madrid & Barcelona) from last week and after taking a couple of days off to enjoy thoroughly both cities, it is time to return back home and, with that, back into my usual and regular blogging activities. Yes, indeed, it has been a few … Continue reading Impact of Social Software Within the Enterprise by Jon Iwata
While I am waiting for clearance on whether I would be able to blog the first keynote session we had from IBM’s 6th iForum – Capitalising on Innovation, held last week in Zürich, or not, I thought I would go ahead and share with you the presentation from the next session that came up afterwards. … Continue reading IBM’s 6h iForum – Joint Innovation with Clients by Tony Morgan
Earlier on today, on my blog post around 10 Reasons NOT to Ban Social Media in Organisations I was eventually sharing a number of different arguments as to why social computing within the enterprise is a worth while effort to pursue further. Those arguments were trying to provide a reply to the original resource that … Continue reading KMers – Let Go of Control: Encourage and Monitor
