Enterprise 2.0 Forum - video

by Suw on September 28, 2008

The video of my presentation at the Enterprise 2.0 Forum in Cologne on 18th September is now up on the Enterprise2Open blog. Unfortunately I can’t seem to embed it here, and the audio quality’s a bit overdriven, but if you’re curious about how to nurture the adoption of social tools in business, you might want to give it a shot.

On May 16th, 2008 I went over to Lausanne for Going Solo, conference about being a freelance in this networked world of ours. Stephanie did an amazing job of pulling together a great group of speakers, and I was honoured to be one of them. In a departure to my normal topics of conversation, I discussed techniques for ensuring that your work doesn’t take over your life when you go freelance. I’ll be reprising the same talk at Going Solo Leeds.

In June 2007, I was over in San Francisco, and Kevin Marks invited me to give a Google Tech Talk.

ABSTRACT: So we’re all agreed. Blogs: good; email: bad. Wikis: good; sending round attachments to a dozen people and then having to merge all the changes by hand afterwards: bad. But despite the labour-saving wonders of social software, many people - even those who otherwise pounce on every new technological innovation - prefer to stick with the old way of doing things. What’s stopping them from adopting blogs and wikis as a way of getting things done? It can’t be the tool, because the tools are easy. So what scary monsters are lurking in the social software closet, ready to leap out at the innocent project leader, fangs and claws to the fore?

And if you don’t want to watch the video, Steph Booth took notes.
