I attended Lotusphere 2012 this week. Actually, I attended LotusConnect, the event focused on letting customers tell their stories about how IBM’s products service the business. The case studies from notable organizations such as TD Bank, Children’s Hospital and Caterpillar were compelling. Some implementations were further along than others, but all of the speakers spoke [...]

This time of year, I like to review what people think is in store for us in the coming twelve months. I’ve read through lots of material, so I thought I would summarize a few points about what I hope will change in 2012 as well as a few trends I expect will play out. [...]

It’s interesting how so many client inquires are initially described as questions about social media, but then really turn out to be variations of more traditional issues like collaboration, knowledge management or community enablement. The common denominator among these topics is the desire to use technology to make people more effective in their jobs. The [...]

Any Gartner analyst knows that interest in particular topics waxes and wanes, sometimes for discernible reasons and sometimes we don’t know why. This week’s topic was knowledge management, or as the aficionados call it, KM. The first client call was a review of a KM strategy and then other discussions progressed from there. What comes up frequently – and did again [...]

In an earlier post Beware: The Seduction of Social, I commented that the “provide and pray” approach for social technology doesn’t work. While working on the Business Gets Social scenario for fall symposium, I explored two critical uncertainties: how organizations will allocate resources and how work will be executed.

During the past week, I enjoyed a number of face to face meetings with clients from across a wide variety of industries. We talked about a raft of issues, some industry-specific, some pretty general in nature. A theme that seldom surfaced explicitly but that underlies much of the discussion is what I like to call [...]

After a bit of a holiday break, I’m back from the Gartner PPM Summit. Is was my first attendance at one of these events and I quite enjoyed talking with so many people who were so committed to the successful execution of the organization’s critical initiatives. It also gave me a chance to tell some [...]

I spent a delightful day at the MIT Sloan CIO Symposium (#MITCIO) last week. It was delightful because I had the luxury of listening to a roster of informative speakers discussing a wide variety of issues ranging from cloud (of course!) to analytics. It was also nice to be able to attend the event without [...]

I’ve just spent a week working with clients on the development of their social media strategy. We’ve gone through a mini-strategy planning session where we examined a key area for social deployment: the domain. A domain is an area of enterprise concern where social media may have a significant impact. We pose four questions for [...]

One of the people I had breakfast with during the Portals, Content and Collaboration Summit was from the insurance industry. His organization, like many insurers, depends on a network of agents to sell their policies. For many years, they have focused on making it easy for an agent to write a policy so they would [...]
