Wegmans Puts Together Twitter Team - 13WHAM.com - Rochester News, Weather, and Sports

Interesting experimentation by Wegmans with Twitter - they have a real opportunity to tighten the feedback loop with customers in realtime. But will it scale? Do they have the back-end procesess to handle feedback without falling over themselves as Dell, Comcast and others are doing? Beyond pilot experiments, getting to sustainable participation is a definite challenge.

Cultural change is free - John Seddon

Free-flowing talk from John Seddon - talking about systems thinking and why many approaches to "managing change" is focused on processes instead of outcomes. Pokes a ton of holes in many areas of "normal business practices."

"John Seddon explains why targets make organisations worse and controlling costs makes costs higher.
This elegant dissection of the organisational madness that pervades our culture was given at the 2009 conference of the Human Givens Institute. Target Obsession Disorder laid bare. "

Seek Omega: The 2010 Enterprise 2.0 All-Star Blogger Roster

Whew, looks like being one of the first analysts (about 7 years ago), to be covering the then un-named Enterprise 2.0 is coming to fruition.

Proud to be ranked in the "Most Influential" grouping - working hard to keep it real, keep it relevant, and keep on pushing through the barriers of business misunderstandings, and overfocus on tools as saviors.

Thanks to my brother, Dave Keldsen (aka DAK) for pointing out the extremely early indicators of wikis finding a home in the Enterprise, and the early collaboration with trail-blazers like Konstantin Guericke (co-founder of LinkedIn) in Social Networking, and Ross Mayfield (Founder of SocialText). We were all way ahead of the curve, but "the future" is more present now than ever before - let's make it count!

Anything I can do to provide coaching, consulting or workshops - don't hesitate to get in touch. Let me bring the lessons learned (and those not yet uncovered), to YOUR organization.

From Seek Omega:
"The 2010 Enterprise 2.0 All-Star Blogger Roster

Now that the holiday hangover has worn off and the bills are coming due, I want to turn your attention to the individuals that are most influencing the Enterprise 2.0 space. Those of you that are early adopters or just starting to research Enterprise 2.0 can short cut the search for quality information by following and reading from these all-stars.

How and why were these people chosen? By a combination of influence and focus on Enterprise 2.0. Some highly influential bloggers like Chris Brogan, Fred Zimny and Jeremiah Owyang were not chosen because their focus is outside the E2.0 space. Sure they have an opinion on E2.0, but their primary focus is not on E2.0."
