In other words…


The market is already flourishing with

collaboration tools


users can search for content, information, and experts, build communities, and build “no-code solutions on the premises or in the cloud, a rich set of building blocks, tools and self-service capabilities.”

Jive’s SBS 4.0 includes blogs, tags, videos, social bookmarks, collaborative documents, an MS Office document previewer, polls, rich profiles, and status updates.

a way of building a knowledge network within a company. It does this by creating an automated way to find the proper source for information once an employee has entered a query.

Some worth valued examples:

… allows for online collaboration, messaging, audio /video/VoiP connecting, and the ability to create project teams in a secure environment. …a robust real-time collaboration space that offers real-time desktop sharing with teleconferencing.

an ‘enterprise wiki’ where docs can be shared and co-edited with update notifications. …includes “CRM connectors” and “CRM and database dashboards” as well as micro-blogging, chat, task lists, etc.

Currently in beta, Wave creates a “wave” – a shared space – that allows users to share and collaborate on rich data, including documents photos, gadgets, feeds from other sources on the Web, and others.


However, the “wall” still exist.

The big issue remaining:


How to unzip COLLABORATION successfully

with the support of new technologies?


1. Become aware of the profiles of your employees in

terms of age, education, experience and culture.


2. Examine in details any collaboration

gaps and weaknesses of your in-company

environment.


3. For each team/department having teamwork

troubles, identify the best way to perform

collaboration tasks.


4. You may lean on Enterprise 2.0

consultants to help you find the right

collaborative solutions and to assist you

in creating and following your adoption

plan.


5. Think out of the box just because:


Your company has to be unique.


Your people are unique.

Let them be the perfect TEAM!

Provide them with a comfortable platform to

share their thoughts and actions, and to feel

motivated to create and innovate the future!


Within the enterprise Collaboration

has to be as NATURAL as water.


2. Collaboration is an

achievement & progress factor.

Abundant, clear and fluid.


And we all have access to the right technologies

to make that happen…
