headshift
is a social software consulting and
development group who apply
emerging tools and ideas to the real-
world needs of organisations:
consulting & engagement
prototyping and experimentation
development and integration
3. We are wasting a lot of brain power in large organisations
4. Our IT systems do not understand how we work
Most knowledge is created and
•
exchanged in the informal space
We work using peripheral vision
•
and intuition within networks
5. What matters inside large organisations
Better awareness
•
More effective collaboration
•
A culture of participation
•
Better individual decision making
•
7. These tools are now enterprise-ready
Blogging tools Wiki platforms Newsfeeds / RSS
Sui Sui Sui
Combined suites Custom build

Sui Sui
• Intranet-based
• Blended solutions
• “Situated” software
8. Key characteristics of social software
• Fast, cheap, iterative delivery
• Networked individualism not centralisation;
self-interest drives growth
• Use network effects for collective benefit
• Combination of ecosystem of tools, data
and services, not ‘one tool to rule them all’
9. Where enterprise social tools are heading
• Lightweight, social interface onto
corporate systems and info
• Social newsreading and filtering to
create collective intelligence
Feeds and flows, not content objects
•
or knowledge stores
• Business social networking
• More intimate, personalised
information for clients
10. Social reading, writing and filtering
Social reading, writing and filtering drives relevance
Others can share what you blog, link to or read
•
Collaborative filtering based on social networks, tags,
•
sources and attention data from readers
Over time, information begins to find you, not vice versa
•
11. Case study: social tools in a leading law firm
• Project began as a 3-month pilot for 3 groups -
20 months later we have around 30 groups
• Blended solution using two products + custom
code + integration with internal systems
• Seen within the firm as a great success that will
inform the next generation of knowledge and
information sharing systems
18. How we started
We began by exploring:
• group cultures
tasks, goals & needs
•
information landscapes
•
interaction styles
•
existing workflows
•
real-world scenarios
•
20. Current success measures
• Increasing number of posts over first year
• High readership on receipt of alerts
• Diversity of readers and contributors
• Meeting initially defined business objectives:
• Self help and shared ownership – less admin
• More member awareness and action
• More pro-active communication
• 30% of the organisation are in one or more groups
