Our relationships


• Paul Adam’s research indicates that people don’t have one group of friends

• Treating all of our relationships as one homogenous group is very limiting

Our relationships aren’t homogenous

• Our identity changes as we traverse our social groups

• The context to social interactions are vital

Colleagues


• Paul Adams built on Mark Granovetter’s earlier work on Weak Ties

• Social networks reduce the signalling costs involved in social cohesion

Who are your real friends?

• This allows people to maintain “weak” social connections that we would otherwise abandon

• Most people have about 5-10strong ties

Crowdsourcing is a essentially a form of outsourcing

Crowdsourcing

BUTCrowdsourcing is distributed to a group of people who are usually anonymous or public, whereas outsourcing is directly sourced to a specific company (or companies).

Crowdsourcing is now extending beyond pure labour arbitrage.

In my opinion, crowdsourcing has generally been used as labour arbitrage• extend a labour market• distribute micro-tasks to a long-tail of workers, and • relies on monetary rewards.

What’s your Deloitte?

we used a simple principle: get your people inside your brand, and you’ll get your brand inside your people.

we used yammer to showcase 650 designs for t-shirts submitted by employees, and our people connected beyond anything we could have imagined.

we ended up with our 6,000 people getting 10,000 t-shirts for themselves and their loved ones.

Social Guidelines


Steering committee

“When I first heard about social media I thought it was a thing best avoided.

I’m really pleased that I’ve gotten to understand the power of this medium.

Although its complex, fast changing and full of risks, the rewards are unbelievable.

Without social media you’re just not going to communicate with your younger team members.

So my advice is you can’t ignore it. Join in.”

Giam SwiegersCEODeloitte Australia

• Senior ownership• Diverse & representative• Multi Disciplinary (Legal, LOBs,

HR, Marketing, etc)• Set strategy• Set guiding principles• Establish accountability, roles

and responsibility


• Digital mentors• Reverse mentoring

Training

“Once we realised that social media couldn’t be controlled, we looked beyond our usual frameworks & standardsfor other support.

To our own surprise, our own people & community became our best control.”
