		<description><![CDATA[Today I reviewed a client&#8217;s draft social solution strategy document. It was comprehensive and well researched with several references from analyst firms, media outlets, and academics. Unfortunately, some of the analysis and advice in the references is, well, just bad (in my experience, of course). Also, in doing my daily Web scan of what&#8217;s going [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am leading a significant 2009 Gartner case-based research effort around how clients are deploying social software and achieving business value. You may be familiar with Gartner’s “Cool Vendors” research. This case-based research will result in a series of “Cool Solutions with Social Software” published papers. We are anticipating that each report will include 5-6 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I get a great deal of kick back from clients on this statement, as I did from one today, but I am sticking to my guns. How many of you have gotten facebook training? How many of you are Craig&#8217;s List certified? How about YouTube? The marquis public Web social environments don&#8217;t train. Enterprise externally [...]]]></description>

Interesting in that the emergence benefit from the social computing movement can and often does lead to a lack of enterprise agility. We need to distinguish between levels of agility. Individual agility, team agility, group agility, business unit agility, geographic region [...]]]></description>

We had about 3 half hour prep calls for the session. After these prep calls I was under the impression they were too technology focused too early. It is always [...]]]></description>
