The business environment that knowledge-intense businesses operate in is anything but static – it’s changing faster and faster, and in new ways. It’s becoming more and more unpredictable. Mobile technologies enable us to get our work done regardless if we are at the office or not. Social technologies allow us to collaborate in new and smarter ways, within and across organizations.
This means that businesses can’t do long-term planning the way they used to. Instead they have to be prepared for change, becoming agile enough to quickly adapt to new conditions and situations.
At the same time knowledge work and the contributions of knowledge workers are becoming increasingly important for businesses. There is also a big potential in improving the productivity of knowledge work that they have to address.
5. DEALING WITH COMPLEXITY
Means we have to improvise and
collaborate. Think out of the box.
But the organization wasn’t designed for that reality.
Organization Design
Efficiency and economy of scale
DOESN’T
Enable collaboration, creativity and
personal responsability
10. THE DIGITAL WORKPLACE
HOW TO?
The idea of working from everywhere, from different devices isn’t new.
We can hold our workplace around our hand.
The digital workplace must be wrapped around the individual and follow them
wherever they go.
It’s not tied to a building and
it’s not open only at office hours.
13. THE DIGITAL WORKPLACE
USER EXPERIENCE
Services around the work place must help get the work done.
All the services that are used towards that
must be wrapped around a coherent user
experience, with access to all
information needed.
16. THE DIGITAL WORKPLACE
WE’RE ALL CONSUMERS
And we are used to quality sofware as consumers. So we no longer accept
crappy software during our jobs.
The services need to be attractive and
easy to use.
We need to remove what doesn’t
add value.
19. THE DIGITAL WORKPLACE
Social networking was designed to fit
human nature. We are social beings.
Not only the individual services, but also
our workplace must be designed
acording to social principles.
22. THE DIGITAL WORKPLACE
Taking your time
Betting everything
in one card
Failing Miserably
Many frequent and
small bets
Diversified chance of sucess
+
More chances to learn from mistakes
23. FINAL MESSAGE
For any organization that has the
ambition to survive in the long haul, it needs
to look beyond the quarter economics and
invest aggressively in initiatives
aiming to improve collaboration and
organizational agility, including
establishing a culture and practices that
continuously improve collaboration,
knowledge sharing and communication
across the extended enterprise.
