Few weeks ago I’ve read Morten’s post about lack of informational stream in a typical company as it strongly resonated with my experience from a small company where I’ve worked before. Basically no one outside development or sales team knew what’s really happening on a daily basis. We were a company with 20 employees so you can just imagine how it’s with even larger groups. Regular Monday meetings or monthly meetings didn’t enable day to day information flow and this lead me to think about how we can improve the flow of  information.

Just imagine, on Facebook, you know what your friends are doing (even when she is not a close friend). Why can’t we give our employees the same functionality to share their thoughts, problems or ideas and help them with your opinion, thoughts, experiences etc. Using that approach we will definitely improve our collaboration and information flow, improve efficiency and enable information sharing inside organization.

We are on the way to change an Industry that has been locked down by traditional legacy systems, because we can not imagine Facebook population will be satisfied with old legacy tools, since they know they can be much more productive and efficient when given opportunity to use the tools that they already know.
