Web 2.0 in the workplace

I’ve been noodling around with a PowerPoint-slash-video approach to explaining the value of Enterprise Web 2.0 (or whatever you want to call social media behind the firewall) ever since I read an article that rejected its usefulness. The presentation has been evolving over the last couple months, and I finally decided to just finish it rather than continue trying to tweak and refine it. It is long—nearly 25 minutes, too long for YouTube—so be warned. I’m hopeful it will prove useful for someone somewhere.

  • 1.Brilliant! Just about to move jobs and received the IT policy document which I am refusing to sign as it restricts most of this. Saved me loads of work...I'll just send the link to your presentation to them. Thanks Shel!

  • 2.Excellent presentation, Shel!

    The biggest inhibitor to the use of New/Social Media within an organization is the perceived "risk factor." A great way for companies to strengthen their intestinal fortitude with respect to these new communications devices is to try them behind the firewall BEFORE using them in a more public venue.

    Once they learn that the world won't end through Social Media, they'll feel a little more confident about playing outside.

    I just sent a link of your presentation to a client of mine.

    Thanks!
