Poster presentation at Org Science Winter Conference 2012
Amir Sasson and I - Lene Pettersen - submitted an abstract ‘One size does not fit all: Social Business Software, Strategy and Organization in Multinational Knowledge Intensive Firms’ for this years Org Science winter conference ‘Formal Organizations Meet Social Networking’. We were invited to present a poster;
Hvordan lykkes med Enterprise 2.0?
På tirsdag holdt jeg et innlegg på NETworked POWER konferansen hvor jeg snakket rundt en tweet jeg tvitret. Nedenfor er manuset mitt fra innlegget (jeg har fylt ut litt enkelte steder.) Er du kunnskapshungrig etter flere erfaringsbaserte praktiske råd om intern kommunikasjon, samhandling og Enterprise 2.0 bør du følge med til høsten, for da kommer Kommuneforlaget med en ny SoMe bok i sin serie om sosiale medier om nettopp denne tematikken med bidragsyterne Bente Kalsnes (Origo) , Peggy Brønn (BI), Ove Dalen (Netlife Research), Ingri Furuly Eriksen, Bjørn Fremmersvik, Terje Johansson Vullum (BetaTrondheim/Trondheim kommune), Kari Vestgarden (Statnett) og Lene Pettersen (BI)).
Når teknologien setter oss milvis tilbake
Jeg har en amerikansk venn som ble hoppende glad da han flyttet til Oslo fordi man “Trenger ikke bil i en by som Oslo hvor man har et såvidt godt utbygget kollektivnett”. Han hadde jo egentlig rett. Tigerstaden og bilinfiserte Amerika kan ikke sammenlignes på dette punktet.
For akkurat ett år siden kvittet jeg meg med bilen min. Folk ble overrasket og spurte hvordan jeg skulle få mine to barn annenhver uke til og fra fotball-, håndball og skitreninger. Jeg syntes det blir feil å måtte ha bil i byen for å kjøre unga til trening, så isteden har transport de gangene det har trengs blitt koordinert med andre foreldre. Og sykle gjør jeg når været tilsier det, ellers så kan jeg jo benytte det godt utbygde kollektivsystemet vårt. Eller?
Birds in Enterprise 2.0 flock together?
Today Marika Lüders and I presented a brief introduction of our findings in our Enterprise 2.0 research case at the conference Kunnskapstinget 2011 in Oslo, Norway. We have depth interviewed 27 knowledge workers in four countries and at six entities. We have captured their digital competence and we have used social network analysis based on the close colleagues at work the informants have listed. In addition we have run two surveys – one as a pre-test for one entity before the company launched the tool, and one survey distributed to all entities in the company after the implementation. I have also, being an social anthropologist, conducted shorter field studies at one entity in Norway and one in Morocco.
A future learning platform?
I have a folder where I place all different concept ideas I get. Many of them are not made for any specific client or customer, just ideas that pop up from the top of my head (often based on user needs I’ve noticed, tendencies in time and my beyond average geek interest in social tech stuff). It’s a shame though that many of them are just lying in this folder for no ones use. I figured I’d share one of them here for others to be inspired by – and ideally make for real!
This is a concept I drew one evening together with my son (then 10 years) three years ago. It is an alternative to the silo based LMS-thinking (Learning Management Systems), and uses game theory and interactivity as main motivational factors. It also places topic/theme as center and not documents or “sender” by using mash-ups from a range of both content providers and formats (text, audio, visual). The idea also tries to incorporate overall learning goals that the Norwegian government set for Norwegian pupils, so one can have a constant and personal feedback for the individual. The idea/concept was thrown together in a few hours, and is in no sense complete. But I figured I’d share it anyhow. (Although it is written in Norwegian I believe it makes sense when I labeled the different parts in English)(If you click on the picture you can study it in detail). Enjoy!
