Personal KM – Everything that has got to do with Personal Knowledge Management as opposed to the traditional Knowledge Management
Fascinating topic, don’t you think? And here we are, still in 2013, and already thinking about what the workplace of the future would be like by 2020. Well, one thing for sure is that it won’t be anything like we have today or what we may have had over the course of the last 50 … Continue reading The Future of Work by 2020
I am not too sure whether meetings lower our IQ or whether they make us all more stupid, as my good friend Stowe Boyd reflected on a recent blog post, but I can certainly confirm they do take a toll on your own productivity. Specially, when those meetings are not set up by you, but … Continue reading How Social Networking Can Improve Work Meetings
Lately, I have been thinking quite a bit around the topic of Social / Open Business Transformation. Something completely different to what we may have experienced so far in the last three to four years on living social for the sake of social, which is perhaps what we pretty much keep seeing today all over the … Continue reading Open Business – From Document-Centric to People-Centric Collaboration
Or, to put it in other words, automation of your social networking presence.

I cannot believe that, in just a few minutes from now, I will be celebrating the first month anniversary in my new job as the Lead Social Business Enabler at IBM and I hardly did notice how fast and furious it’s gone by. Goodness! One full month already?!? Where did April go? Even more important, what … Continue reading One Month Anniversary on the New Job as Lead Social Business Enabler

That is, self-promoting your own content in your own blog that you may find scattered around all over the place (other blog posts, … Continue reading Enterprise Social Networking Tips by Luis Suarez
A few days back my good friend, the always inspiring and thought provoking, Dan Pontefract, put together a rather interesting blog post which is just a beautiful story of a conversation he recently had that I could see myself behave and react pretty much in the same way that he did. In “Should Companies Allow … Continue reading Should Companies Block Access to Digital Tools?
If you have been reading this blog for a while now you would know how, all along, I haven’t been very much in favour about supporting the argument of the digital / generations divide or the distinction of various different generations at work, whether baby boomers, Gen-Xers, Gen-Yers or whatever else. However, and with that … Continue reading Working Styles – Where Fun Meets Work
Over the course of the last few years, there have been a good number of occasions where, when working with fellow colleagues, customers or business partners, plenty of knowledge workers kept asking me what would be the best way for them to get started with their own adoption efforts of social software, both inside and … Continue reading Open Business Strategies – Helping Someone Else Achieve Their Goals
