Good book about social media in companies and there added value and huge potential. Wirearchy and Working out Loud are two things very dear to me, so it's great to have read about this.
2+1 stars. 2 stars, because I didn't learn that much new (but I did catch a few good quotes). 3 stars, because this book is specifically aimed at either newcomers to the field or people who seek practical advice - and I am not part of that audience, so who am I to complain? This is the also the reason why I've only skimmed through the cases presented at the end. Note: I feel a future version of the book might benefit from a rewrite of the cases in a the more casual style applied in the preceding chapters.
Nette Sammlung von Gastbeiträgen, die aus der Praxis des spannenden Themas #SocialCollaboration berichten. Ein Buch, das zum Einstieg in das Thema helfen kann.
Very motivating book about how to establish new ways of communication in your business. It is very lightweight to read and I especially like the use cases. I already used the rules of how to micropost in our company and some colleagues now feel more self-assured when posting in our intranet.
One downside is definitively the selection of proposed tools: I don't think that WhatsApp is a good messenger for companies. But suits well as an example.
