Creating Users

Why and how do we fail?

Users don’t necessarily *have* to use SharePoint to get their job done

New way(s) of doing something –cultural changes take 18-36 months to stick

Get Real – Strategy doesn’t always succeed

• Enterprises with several years of Enterprise 2.0 efforts under their belt have failed to reach the tipping point and cross into mainstream adoption of social collaboration

• – Information Week

• 80% of organizations with SharePoint continue emailing documents back and forth

• - Usamp Survey

• Only 13% of IT professionals believe their internal social networks have been a success

• - Laurie Buczek “The Big Failure of Enterprise 2.0 Social Business”
