6. Social Collaboration is described in TeamPark as an analogy “the difference between a machine and an organism”. A machine is built to a well-defined specification and should perform in a predictable manner, a machine can be changed, updated and adjusted once planned and considered. Whereas an organism grows, evolves, and adapts. An organism cannot perform machine-like, repeatable performances; there remains a degree of uncertainty in its performance. An organism is, both very adaptive and self-organizing: the ultimate in flexibility and survivability. It can do things that a Machine cannot and vice versa. The social side of a company is comparable to an organism. So Define Social Collaboration ! It’s powerful but different
