IT-dominated purchasing approachCURRENT STATE 1
We need a blog and wiki.
Let’s get activity streams.
We should “get social.”
CURRENT STATE 2
Adoption is assumed, not crafted
“It’s available. Go for it.”
No engagement. No involvement.
Build It, Throw It Out There
BITIOT (“IDIOT”)
Example – The University
CURRENT STATE
Shortage of the wrong thing

Groupware will .... not mysteriously transform organizations from collections of highly competitive loners to well integrated, cooperative groups of collaborators. Without careful planning for its introduction and the changes that this will entail, the impact of groupware will likely be quite limited. Successful groupware implementation will require both a careful assessment of the fit of the technology to the organization and a well designed training program to introduce this new technology and its potential to the organization members.
Social tools will .... not mysteriously transform organizations from collections of highly competitive loners to well integrated, cooperative groups of collaborators. Without careful planning for its introduction and the changes that this will entail, the impact of social tools will likely be quite limited. Successful implementation of social tools will require both a careful assessment of the fit of the technology to the organization and a well designed training program to introduce this new technology and its potential to the organization members.

STAGE 4
Making It Real

Stage 1. Winning Attention
They aren’t interested in features and capabilities
How do we get them interested?
What others are doing
STAGE 1
Winning Attention
Real-to-Life Scenarios
• Narrative scenarios about how a group works
– “A day in the life of customer services”
– “A project in the day of a research team”
• Shows the possibilities embedded in their reality

Explain how the new stuff worksTrain how to use it
Provide grounding, conceptual understanding, and practical experience

Concepts
STAGE 1
Winning Attention
Classroom Training
• Teach the “what” of IBM Connections
– Various design considerations
– Good for dense concentrations of people
– Hands-on = better learning
Stage 3. Enlivening Applicability
Explore reasons and valueHow could it apply to their work?
“me, us, my group and team”
STAGE 3
Enlivening Applicability
STAGE 2
Cultivating Basic
Concepts
STAGE 1
Winning Attention
Facilitated Group Re-Imagining
• What are the activities the group does today?
– These are underpinned by assumptions about technology capability sets
– BUT … these have changed
– So what now?
– How can we re-imagine work?
Example – Insurance Firm

Don’t shoot yourself in the foot
