People who want to introduce an enterprise social network often face a dual challenge: they have to convince senior management as well as get people to use the network. This presentation addresses both issues and gives you hope: you don't necessarily need active senior management support to get the ball rolling. With community management tactics and by leveraging "killer content" you can change organisational habits that can later snowball into bigger changes. This was a presentation I did for the Microsoft SharePoint conference in Las Vegas, 2014. The talk notes are here: http://www.businessgoessocial.net/spc14/

Editor's Notes
- QUICK WIN: All Company as a Q&A forum (this might not work for companies with 50 000 employees – you need to create some subgrouos)-- people get the idea quickly, becomes valuable quickly--BUT: if the company culture doesn’t allow you to show that you don’t know STORY:This replaced the all company emails
- BGROUND:Often the best reasons to use an ESN is when organisation’s needs overlap with staff’s needs, The SweetspotEXAMPLE:If it’s purely social there’s no reason for the SMT to invest in it. If it’s purely organisational – when there’s no benefit to you – you won’t do it because it’s a chore,
- AT LEAST ONE OR TWO PROJECTS WHERE YOU CAN MEASURE THE VLAUEPROBLEM: STANDARD WAYS OF CALCULATING ROI NOT WORKINGFOR EXAMPLE:Mining company – no way to measure thatTRY:EfficiencyEXAMPLE: Insurance firm¨BGROUND:Not straightforward: how do you measure the benefit of one time saving innovation spreading from one team to another quicker?Use Yammer for a project where you can measure the benefits (time):EXAMPLE: Insurance firm(If you can calculate the money saved – even better)STORY:Crowdsourced the strategyTIP:MEASURING THE VALUE COMES IN HANDY LATER WHEN YOU APPROACH SENIOR MANAGERSA common method that community managers follow for proving the value of these tools, is the use of reporting frameworks that they fill in on a regular basis, thus reporting against a set of objectives intended to measure the success of the platform in improving communication and collaboration across the organization, and which include metrics for aspects such as levels of cross-functional work and cross-departmental information sharing. Some community managers also attempt to promote open innovation and crowdsourcing initiatives on the platform, the results of which can then be used to demonstrate the value these platforms can deliver to the business. Finally, community managers often attempt to identify actual cost savings from the platform’s usage, which they can then use to support its business value
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fW8amMCVAJQTo really help you understand how important the champions are I’m going to show you a short video..THE LESSONS:The first follower transforms the lone nut into a leader. You have to model behaviour
- Share with you one more tip: New recruits - approach the HR team and suggest collaborationBGROUND:When people join a new org they are always a bit lost – they have a lot of questions.A lot of organisations use Yammer in preboarding and onboarding processes:External networks OR new joiners group-They can ask questions-Peer support ALSO: what else does it do?Well, It creates a transformative ES experience. They understand the benefit, because it was useful to them. And they are more likely to continue using it in their daily work. Or even introduce it in their team.ALSO: young peopleSTORY:Inject them against negative attitudes in their teams. Induction sessions: PERMISSION TO USE THIS TOOL EVEN THOUGH YOUR TEAM WOULDN*T.Catch them while they haven’t been corrupted by their teams
- Pilot teams are the roots When people come up with new ways of using Yammer: bring them to the fold (offer support)
- PILOT PROJECTS: AFTER 6 months or so (maybe less maybe a year)Show the value of the pilot projectsAsk for more resources if you want to spread the networkAt least an endorsement for the next round!
- SUMMARYFind allies –(WHEN YOU GET HOME – start building a network)Find pilot teams/projects (business value) --- making the case to SMT LaterUse community management techniquesFINALLY….
