2. You have been
influenced when you
think in a way you
wouldnât otherwise
have thought, or do
something you
wouldnât otherwise
have done

3. If youâre in business, indeed any type of organization,
then youâre in the business of influence

6. The authors of the Cluetrain Manifesto asserted back in
1999 that the Internet allows markets to revert to the days
when a market was defined by people gathering and
talking among themselves about buyer and seller
reputation, product quality and prices.
This was lost for a while as the scale of organizations and
markets outstripped the facility for consumers to
coalesce.

â a new team or department â require new skills
â something to procure, design â bring new opportunities, and
or manage separately threats

10. Perception is reality
May have been a relevant
axiom for 20th Century,
but nowâŠ
Reality is perception
The real-time social
enterprise must, by
nature, be authentic.
You canât fake it.

11. No organization is an island
Everything an organization does occurs in the context of a
changing world, in a dynamic interplay with every entity around it
Organizations must cultivate a sensitivity to the new
dynamic (one thatâs superior to competitorsâ) and
sharpen their ability to interpret and respond to the
myriad communication flows issuing from all sides

12. Itâs complex. We are
more influenced by the
150 nearest to us than
by the other six or so
billion combined.

15. - address book
Phones are the most personal
- diary
of consumer electronic
- digital messenger
devices. They rank with keys
- web browser
and money when going out.
- games machine
They become an extension of
- music player
their owner and their loss is
- video player
mourned, literally
- navigator
- video & stills camera
It keeps you connected with
those far away, and disengaged
... and, of course,
from strangers nearby
a phone

16. The Internet of Things
A public and private nervous system for the planet
Electronic devices
(washing machines, air conditioning units and cars)
Electrical devices
(lighting, electric heaters, and power distribution)
Non-electrical objects
(food and drink packages, clothes, and animals)
Environmental sensors
(measuring such variables as temperature, noise, moisture)

17. Data paucity was a problem of the 20th Century.
Big data is the problem and opportunity of the 21st.

18. Web 3.0 â the Semantic Web â is about the Web
itself understanding the meaning of all the content
and participation
Indeed, the Web becomes a universal medium for
the exchange of data, information and knowledge

20. 20th Century business was built around
tangible assets (land, plant & machinery)
The 21st Century business is more reliant
on intangibles (intellectual property,
brand, reputation, social dialogue) for
which traditional accounting analyses are
poorly designed

21. So that's one reason why
Kaplan and Norton developed
the strategy map tool for the
alignment of operations with
strategy, and the popular*
Balanced Scorecard
framework to augment the
lagging (financial) indicators
of business success with non-
financial drivers of future
financial performance.

24. Socializing the enterprise demands more than just
procuring some social tools.
It demands a new and simple model, devoid of âbaggageâ, to
think about what weâre trying to achieve.
A framework for all influence activities, for the social
media, info tech and business strategy of the 21st Century.

26. Influence Strategy
How can we systematically learn from and manage influence flows?
How do we define, develop, and execute a consistent and coherent
influence strategy?
How do we prioritize investments in influence-related human,
information, and organizational capital?
Kaplan and Nortonâs strategy map tool and Balanced Scorecard
framework are well suited to these efforts.
//The Business of Influence
The Business of Influence, Philip Sheldrake, Wiley, 2011

27. The Influence Scorecard
The Influence Scorecard serves as both the methodology for defining
influence strategy and the tool for executing it.
Itâs a subset of the Balanced Scorecard, containing all the influence-
related objectives and metrics extracted from their functional silos.
Helps management ensure that the potential to influence and be
influenced is exploited cohesively and consistently throughout the
organization.

28. In conclusion
Today, influence activities are:
â Spread, uncoordinated, across functional silos
â Encompass only some aspects and subsets of the
Six Influence Flows and the Influence Scorecard
â Defined in the context of 20th Century technology,
media, and articulation of and appreciation for
business strategy.
28
29. In conclusion
Tomorrow, your influence strategy must:
â Socialize the enterprise, systematically
â Take best advantage of new info technologies
â Drive business performance management.
