We love this. Is your organization focused on what matters?  

Collaboration also demands a corporate culture that values client results over departmental efficiency or independent virtuosity. It demands a culture that rewards learning through failure and encourages people to go outside their comfort zones. This is more than most companies are willing to do. Yet experience teaches us when individuals do not have to worry about making themselves look good, they are able to concentrate on delivering meaningful and memorable brand experiences.

Thus far, social media has largely been limited to marketing and community building functions at companies. But a recent report from McKinsey showed that a majority of the estimated $1.3 trillion in untapped value from social technologies lies in “improved communications and collaboration within and across enterprises.” In other words, social media is poised to become an office productivity tool, much the same way that email did in the late 1990s.

YamJam12 x WorkSimple!

Here are just a few reasons we're super excited to be a part of YamJam '12 . Check out these tweets from the #yamjam12 tweet chat this morning. Some amazing knowledge was dropped that clearly represents Yammer and their vision for the future of work.  Way awesome. 

Transparency also fosters accountability. "If you're going to walk around with your shirt off, you'll probably do more sit-ups." #yamjam12

It is more than a company being social, it is about a fundamental shift in the way we lead employees to the next level. #YamJam12

Collaboration is what makes @yammer successful it’s about taking the users feedback and developing a product around that feedback #yamjam12

MyPOV: look for technology solutions that blend the best aspects of consumerization w/ enterprise class requirements #yamjam12

— R Ray Wang (@rwang0) 

I'm not a fan of the terms open vs. closed or silo'd vs. transparent. I prefer to think about content/people in the right context. #yamjam12
