Good Friday morning,
This week I had the great opportunity to receive a presentation of how "social networking computer tools" can be FANTASTICly applied WITHIN any company or any organization which has people and/or associates and/or members !!!

The purpose is : collaboration in real time.

Here's my point: these tools can have a most powerful impact on the implementation of HOSHIN-KANRI (i.e. Policy Deployment; i.e. MBO the Toyota Way). I can't wait to do a Hoshin implementation project using such Portal / Collaboration tools as : here's just a few: Discusion Forums; Wikis; Blogs of course; SMS; RSS; Libraries; and approx 20 or 40 more tools.

AND I think that the packaging of all these tools into one offering will replace the "IntRAnet" that employees & managers currently refer to .

IF YOU LIKE to learn more, I know the good people at www.vennware.com who have just such a VERY COMPLETE package.

Have a great weekend,
Mike Davis. .......... please leave a comment. Thanks.
