Thanks for the comment and food for though...Hi Joe,<br />Thanks for the comment and food for thought. I agree with many of your points. People like us see the value of things we were not doing 10 years ago like blogging and twittering. Unfortunately the vast majority of the organization has yet to start using these tools and for many of them, their first experience with any social media tools is at work. If it was an organizational culture that was accustomed to using social media tools outside of work then change wouldn't be quite so hard. To people like us it is a no brainer that we need to be using tools like this to improve our performance but how do we help others experience the value we are getting from these tools when it is new to them?Joe Deeganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10222566841920170710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592309870539691679.post-55613526042997335702009-06-19T14:51:14.005-07:002009-06-19T14:51:14.005-07:00Hi Joe,
I've had similar experiences with se...Hi Joe, <br /><br />I've had similar experiences with several initiatives over the years and it makes me wonder:<br /><br />1. If change is such hard work, why are we blogging and twittering and doing a thousand other things we didn't dream of 10 years ago?<br /><br />2. Don't we adopt things that provide high value and avoid things that don't?<br /><br />3. The most current thinking is that loyal customers emerge when you provide excellent solutions and <i>make it easy</i> for them to use your services. <br /><br />4. People in organizations are really busy these days...partly because so many of them are running skeleton crews. Do I have time to contribute? And what's the incentive?<br /><br />5. Maybe the problem is that wiki's don't have much value until they're populated...and discussion forums may make me think about organizing information. Most everything I need to know I can Google, in theory.<br /><br />Just thinking out loud here.<br /><br />Joe<br /><a href="http://spotlearning.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">spotlearning.blogspot.com</a><br /><a href="http://twitter.com/spotlearning/" rel="nofollow">@spotlearning</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03311766555967060224noreply@blogger.com
