About this Blog

In this blog I want to share my thoughts on one of today’s most fundamental business issues:

How can we connect the people that contribute value to our business and how can we make them collaborate most efficiently?

The biggest potential for value creation and productivity today lies in creating connected networks within and outside of organizations to tap into the vast knowledge pool of employees, customers and business partners. Internet-based tools for collaboration and exchange are now so far developed and widely accepted that organizations can make very productive use of them.

All of this, however, is easier said than done. Many organizations struggle with the implementation of such tools and the corresponding principles. I want to contribute to the understanding of the potential business applications and benefits. I hope to engage interested readers in a dialogue about both the opportunities and the challenges of new forms of collaboration for organizations.
