For the first time, I’ve included a proposal for a wiki in a report for a client. This is hardly a high-tech company—in fact, it’s about as brick-and-mortar as they come—but the inclusion of a wiki in my recommendations was a no-brainer. The company is expanding rapidly overseas and managing communication in a 24-hour cycle is getting more and more difficult. Several executives I interviewed lamented the lack of a tool that would allow projects to move forward even when headquarters staff were snug in their beds. This would hardly be the first company to use a wiki as an internal communication/collaboration tool, but I’m still anxious to find out if the idea appeals to them or if it’s dismissed as too high-tech or too hard to control. I’ll let you know.
