DESCRIPTION:
An “open collaboration” movement began more than 10 years ago in places like IBM, Proctor and Gamble, and Wikipedia. The technologies that enabled major innovations in how these organizations work are now impacting social culture and behavior around the world. Social media tools such as wikis, micro-blogging and chat rooms are powerful ways to connect, find expertise and collaborate well beyond video or tele-conferencing. Virtual collaboration is an exciting frontier for leaders of change. In this session we will hear and talk about:

How new social media is impacting social systems and organization

The role of strategy, design and adaptive practices when working on collaboration using virtual tool

Explore the implications that new technologies will have for us, as OD practitioners and for our internal/external clients
