During decades, innovation has been a locked in process within organizations. In Europe, more and more enterprises are looking for new innovation field to overtake the crisis. If there is a long time that US enterprises like Starbuck or General Electric are crowdsourcing oriented, it’s less common here in Europe (even if examples exist like Daimler or Tchibo)….
Let’s have a look on the basics for external open innovation, to highlight the first steps for these enterprises.
Yesterday during lunch I was chatting with a colleague about collaboration and the importance of the vision, but of the organization chart too. You can set up any kind of social platform, if you don’t align your organization (and of course the business process as well) you’ll fail. Let see that in more details how it can works.
A new challenge for this blog, a weekly english post (failed twice in the past but as Confucius said : « The greatest glory isn’t in never falling but  to rise up in every fall »). Why, cause now I am  EMEA Social Business Director at MSLGROUP, and to evangelize my international peers, english fits better than french. Most of the time, I’ll translate post I’ve already written in french for this blog. If they are a little bit old, no worries I’m going to update them.
Here is the first one of a long series I hope 😉
 This collaboratively and collectively written book about Enterprise 2.0 is the English version of the original French, published online at the end of last year. This translation was made possible by a partnership with the company LinguaSpirit, who carried out the work for us. We would like to thank them for it.
Comme vous le savez sans doute hier et avant hier s’est déroulé à Francfort l’Enterprise 2.0 summit, sans doute la plus grande conférence européenne autour de l’Entreprise 2.0.
Je ne vais pas revenir ici sur l’ensemble de la conférence, j’y reviendrais plus tard dans un autre billet, mais plutôt vous faire partager ma présentation pour les sessions experts intitulée : Managing the Participation for Enterprise 2.0
Bien qu’en langue anglaise (elle est surtout imagée), elle est largement compréhensible pour les francophones.
Pour savoir ce qui s’est dit, allez voir sur twitter #e20s (principalement en anglais).
