Implementing Enterprise 2.0 In Your Knowledge Management System
[2009-06-25] Dion Hinchcliffe is leading an opening workshop on Implementing Enterprise 2.0. I have long been an admirer of his work and was pleased to see this session. The subtitle is: Exploring the Tools and Techniques of Emergent Change. Dion said the concept of emergent and social is critical.
