– Don’t forget Single Sign On• Social Analysis

– Identify high performers, brokers, key players, and transformational leaders

• User Interface– Look and feel– What to surface where

• Custom Development• Third party integration• Rollout

Social Analysis

• Find the SME’s• Find the “hub”

people• Identify communities • Don’t forget, your

company already has a social network

The ability to derive insight by analyzing social interactions will be critical. Aside from video, most activity will be around social interactions.

Social Business Governance and Security

• We’ve been social and collaborating for a long while – remember when…• Water-cooler• Fax• Voicemail• Email

• Educate the mobile workforce• “We trust you and we want you to be safe”• Show them how and why• Security is not an IT function

• We have systems and policies in place• Extend to Social Software• Policies have to be fluid• The perimeter has changed and will continue to do so• Expand governance committee/stewardship to key business stakeholders

“Back office time takes away from face time. Close ratio goes up when face time goes up.”

“ We kill more trees since Notes purging started at 60, now 30 days. People are

printing off copies since e-mail is used as the KM system”.

“Shared drive is an absolute disaster.”

“Everyone thinks they know each other’s roles, but there are different expectations.”

“Conversation by e-mail is dizzying!”
