2. Executive Summary
• Leveraging principles and best practices from social media
– sharing, prioritizing, discussing – enterprises can make
knowledge sharing more efficient and effective.
• Going beyond just search, users need more context to judge
the trustworthiness and usefulness of content; the actions of
others in the community can provide this context.
• Putting in place processes to stimulate more social actions
by users is critical to unlocking the value of the knowledge
assets of the enterprise (currently, every enterprise has an
intranet, but no one uses it).

24. Enterprise Social Media
• Create virtual “watercooler” – a place where conversations
and knowledge sharing can be done publicly
• Build up processes and habits to ask and answer questions
around this watercooler (to build up content)
• Plug in other sources of collected documents, knowledge,
questions-answers, customer databases, email lists, etc.
• Index everything and make it searchable; add social actions
(e.g. sharing); add context (how to distinguish quality)
