"Middle managers need to understand that in a social business environment their roles changes from a “management” role into a “curator” role. For example, instead of filtering and controlling what information gets conveyed to upper management, middle managers can take an active role in curating content, giving it proper context and framing conversations and discussions that enable their teams to collaborate more effectively."

Where there is slow or challenging growth, there is a greater need for innovation.

"Executives expect that new digital technologies will transform their businesses, but many admit their companies are far from prepared in developing capabilities and meeting challenges."
"It is rational to consider the Enterprise 2.0 as more agile: free circulation of the information, more autonomy and initiative allowed and encouraged, and an increased action potential thanks to collaboration."

"Design thinking is a process by which groups can collaboratively solve problems or explore opportunities by building ideas up instead of tearing them apart."
"The leaders are often elsewhere, trying to stay away from management because they are afraid of getting stuck in status quo (it is a manager's responsibility to maintain status quo)."
