The Power of Enterprise Social Platforms

Good post from the Harvard Business Review on the role of social media technologies in not only improving communication and collaboration, but also empowering individuals and teams to effect meaningful change.

Initiators and intrapreneurs aren’t just using social media to make their efforts more transparent and accessible, they’re using these platforms to improvise and organize new ways to get the job done. They’re using these tool and technologies to add value to existing processes or, indeed, to create new “just-in-time” processes (and programs) that the C-suite and other senior managers had never envisioned. Social media inside the enterprise and out lower the costs and increase the power of individuals to productively coalesce and coordinate on their own initiative.
