Social business too social?

Or do you just want to better connect and enable your people? “Enterprise social” holds great promise, but effectively harnessing this new toolset is challenging.

Is the rapid emergence of social tools taking you places you don’t want to be?

The problems with enterprise social tools

Social platforms like Facebook and Twitter have dramatically changed how people interact. Many vendors quickly replicated these consumer approaches to create the first generation of social media for business. Results have been mixed.

First-generation enterprise social platforms (enterprise 2.0) are failing because they:

1. Presume mass collaboration will spontaneously break out.
2. Mimic consumer products designed to entertain.
3. Fail to engage the workplace, ignoring company culture and structured teamwork.
4. Inflict massive change, changing both work processes and where information resides.
5. Often challenge how decisions are made and confuse leadership.

Although many companies have now experimented with social network for businesses, very few have succeeded.
