Social Intranet – Unleash the power of Enterprise

Imagine a large enterprise with tens of thousands of employees across several time zones on multiple continents, all collaborating with each other, aware of others’ expertise and interests, working seamlessly as if all of them were in the same room.

You may say that this is a pipe dream and cannot be reality any time soon unless we have futuristic gadgets similar to what were featured in popular TV series Star Trek.

Well, I say think again. We have Social Media tools and technology that can be used over enterprise intranet (as opposed to internet) to make this a reality. To know more, take a look at this excellent preso by Oscar Berg on the subject. My favorite is slide no. 91 (Know thyself).
