DESCRIPTION

Presentation deck from May 2014 Get Clarity webinar. In the webinar (available here:http://www.digitalclaritygroup.com/why-social-is-broken-and-how-to-fix-it/#recording) analyst Tim Walter provides an exclusive look at how social interactions are changing the not-so-distant future of work. Despite great enthusiasm and some positive results, enterprise social tools and practices have failed to make a significant impact in terms of implementations, adoption, regular use, or business results. In fact, enterprise social will continue to falter as long as the focus is on the tools and practices (i.e. the "build it and they will come" fallacy), or the benefits for the employees (i.e. the "it's all about the people" fallacy). After watching the webinar video, you'll learn how to course correct for enterprise social that works. Tim explains how and why the social business can flourish when it is used to address a fundamental shift in business conditions -- namely, the empowerment of consumers and the consequent need for all firms to master customer experience management (CEM).

Each incremental % of employees who become engaged predicts incremental 0.6% growth in sales.

“When asked to rank their company’s social business maturity on a scale of 1 to 10, more than half of respondents gave their company a score of 3 or below. Only 31% gave a rating of 4 to 6. Just 17% ranked their company at 7 or above.”

“The What – the social platform itself – is already dealt with, at least for early adopters.” Now we’re “tackling the big

issues of How.” – Jane McConnell

How and WHY?

“It begins with the idea that a firm is in business to make money for the shareholders. To this end, managers direct and control the workers. Work is coordinated by rules, plans and reports, i.e. bureaucracy. The overriding value is that of ever greater efficiency. Communications are top-down and aimed at maintaining control. Work revolves around “the boss”. The firm’s principal focus is internal. Its principal dynamic is control with the objective of ever greater efficiency.” – Steve Denning

“As organizations begin to realize that they need to transform the way they operate, and to challenge their structure and purpose, in order to survive in a world of increasing complexity and fierce competition, rethinking the very nature of work has become critical.” (Thierry de Baillon)

“Employees are increasingly looking for

personal growth, purpose recognition, access, influence, impact….The future of work is about getting back to basics and unleashing the power of people.” (Ayelet Baron)

“Change in the workplace starts and ends with people, with how they relate to and work with one another. You need people who understand people as part of your team.” (Richard Martin)

“The starting point for organizational change is to realize that our understanding of how we work, alone, with others, and together has altered. The foundations of business that most organizations are operating on are no longer relevant, if they ever were. We need to operate in ways that are aligned with our inherent characteristics.” (Clark Quinn)

“If old world organizations are going to

keep their best people from fleeing to greener pastures (or find willing new recruits from colleges), then the first thing they’re going to have to do is recognize that each and every one of their staff are unique individuals, with passions, dreams, ideas, and a spirit of independence.” (Rob Caldera)

only interpreted the world in various ways. The point

They should change it.

We must change it.

You ought to change it.

Someone, anyone, please change it!

“The point is to change it.”

33

(Literally: “It arrives thereupon to change it.”)

There is no subject in the sentence, no actor or agent that

could/will “change the world.” Why? Because Marx wants to

emphasize that change is not just a matter of people

“changing their minds,” of deciding to change. People do

effect change, but only in the context of (and in conjunction

with) changed conditions.

Look at three instances where changed conditions are at

work (and in the workplace) “behind the scenes.”

“[Employers have to] recognize that each and every one of their staff are unique individuals, with passions, dreams, ideas, and a spirit of independence.” (Rob Caldera)

But: Wasn’t this true for our parents? Grandparents? Workers now nearing retirement?

So: What is different today that makes Rob’s insight pertinent now (and for the future of work)?

“This dimension [team work and collaboration] has been successively discovered—and forgotten and then loudly rediscovered—by Mary Parker Follett in the 1920s, Elton Mayo and Chester Barnard in the 1930s, Abraham Maslow in the 1940s, Douglas McGregor in the 1960s, Peters and Waterman in the 1980s, Smith and Katzenbach in the 1990s and Richard Hackman in the 2000s. . . .[M]anagers would for a time embrace collaboration and teams, and then in a crisis, disband the teams and revert to the default model of . . . controlling individuals.” (Steve Denning)

So: Why did the previous change agents fail? What is different today that makes Steve’s call for “radical management” more realistic and likely to succeed?

But: Previous generations also had unique habits.

And: All firms must acknowledge the need to accommodate. (Otherwise, millennials must just adapt to the world of work, as did previous generations.)

So: What is different today that makes this gen’s demands so powerful?

“Consumers are empowered by information and shared opinions, and they are emboldened by choice. They have developed an appetite for rich and rewarding interactions, and they rarely hesitate to seek alternatives when disappointed. Increasingly, companies will succeed and fail according to the quality of the experiences that they offer.”

• Business justification • Clear/measurable impact, value

proposition, ROI

• A driver for org transformation

• A justification for social practices and tools (i.e., specific value-generating activities

• Business driver that justifies a radical shift in practice

• A “why” that proves a radical shift in the conditions of value production

Support for digitization/automation of work

Structure and accelerator for business transformation

Org-wide support Fundamental

transformation of business practices (e.g. outside-in)

(Software) support for agility, responsiveness, innovation, “consumerization”

Cure for declining business performance

Structure for organization-wide customer-centricity

@tim_walters @just_clarity

Page 47: Changing the World of Work: Why Social is Broken and How to Fix It

Social is not appreciated if held to traditional standards (e.g., ROI)

Social will not be widely adopted if it is judged by (and aspires only to) the established goals of efficiency, productivity, and cost reduction

Social will not be successful if it is a collaborative façade on traditional hierarchical organizations

Social will not be effective if it serves as a Band-Aid on the gaping wounds of non-customer-centric companies

CEM is the inescapable business imperative – and provides the necessary business focus for social, organizational change, and the future of work 47 @tim_walters @just_clarity
