18. ManyWorlds Case Study
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Using Yammer since Fall 2010
Reduction of over 90% in internal email
Groups are ‘open by default’ unless sensitive/legal
Primary conduit for collaboration, SharePoint as repository
Initially adoption was good, but mimicked email,
i.e. 1 on 1 convos, not transparent
Heavy use of external networks
Code of conduct/behavior – peer governed
Hashtags vs. groups still an issue
Busy, vibrant network
