[...] the Enterprise 2.0 conference in June, my only blog post was something of a rant on the emperor having no clothes, since I believe that this has to be about the core business or it’s just not very interesting [...]

Totally agree with Sandy’s post. In fact, isn’t it a tautology?

* Interaction without explicit business purpose (e.g., via emails) = communication

* Interaction with explicit business purpose (e.g., via a Plan in a Human Interaction Management System) = collaboration

TOTALLY agree about the BS millennial argument. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve argued with Gen Y’ers about this. They all say “Our generation expects to be engaged in conversations with vendors” to which I say and 40 year olds don’t? I don’t blame them though, I’m sure when I was in my teens and 20s I thought I was different than the generation before me. It takes time to realize your traits and skills are defined by your experiences and the experiences of those around you, not by your age. I know groups of 40 and 50 year olds who are extremely active in social media and I know teens and 20 year olds that stay as far away from Twitter and Facebook as possible. True, when you grow up on a technology you are more comfortable with it (like kids using computers) but to believe that your “needs” are different, that is what annoys me.

Wiertz, definitely a related issue in your link: if you don’t have good communications in the first place, then adding some new social tools isn’t going to help much in terms of innovation.

A nice Post (once again )

E 2.0 is not about the technology but about people and their relationship inside the company.
I tried to explain it in this article last year and would love to have your feedback:
