- 2. Reason number one: no real buy-in from senior executives. They don't endorse It; They don't use it; They don't see the business value
- 3. You are not alone. Research firm Gartner estimates that through 2015, 80 percent of social business efforts will not achieve the intended benefits due to inadequate leadreship and an overemphasis on technology.

- 11. Senior managers still not convinced? Show them research on the benefits of enterprise social networks.
- 12. Enterprise Social Networks can increase productivity by 30-35 per cent. Mckinsey Global institute – The Social Economy
- 13. Enterprise Social Networks will become the primary communication channels for noticing, deciding or acting on information relevant to carrying out work. Gartner Predicts 2013: Social and collaboration go deeper and wider
- 15. 4. Ask the senior managers to use the network for two weeks. Show them how it works – ask them to ask a question; install the Enterprise Social Network app on their phone; become their personal Enterprise Social Network support.
