The Simplest Way To Know What Everyone's Doing At Work

The Simplest Way To Know What Everyone's Doing At Work | information analyst | Scoop.it

One of the biggest challenges of knowledge work is its lack of visibility. Getting a clear picture of what’s going on in a collection of minds, including your own, is much more difficult than seeing the visible progress of constructing a house or assembling a physical product. And when you can’t see what you’re building together as a company, it takes extra time, effort, and work to manage problems, progress, and processes.

 

So how do you make the invisible visible?

In the modern often remote workplace sharing work is essential to an efficient and collaborative team. Writing is the simple powerful tool that can.

Lisa Armstrong's curator insight, November 23, 2013 12:11 AM

It's a confronting notion. Of all the hours dedicated to team meetings,  review workshops, project review meetings .... across our organisations. And we still don't know what employees and teams are truly doing. A poor ROI indeed!

Social media enables employee and team connectivity beyond the confines of any meeting. Employees can post pix and videos of their lunch and others can like, comment or share their experiences. Challenge is how we have them connect and interact about deeper content than their lunch. Connect and interact with content about their job. That's the leadership knack!

Google’s Fabled "20% Time" Now Looks Like a Career-Limiting Move

Google’s Fabled "20% Time" Now Looks Like a Career-Limiting Move | information analyst | Scoop.it

A lively debate among current and former Google engineers is raging on Hacker News about Quartz’s piece on the death of 20% time at Google—that formerly hallowed portion of an engineer’s week set aside for his or her own projects, which brought us innovations such as Gmail and Adsense.

 

Some Google engineers insist that the statements given to Quartz and issued elsewhere in public forums are flat-out wrong: “I don’t have to get approval to take 20% time, and I work with a number of people on their 20% projects,” says one anonymous poster claiming to be an engineer at Google.

The Future of Knowledge Work

The Future of Knowledge Work | information analyst | Scoop.it
Online talent marketplaces are changing how companies find and engage talent. Artificial intelligence is supporting or even replacing human judgment in a wide range of knowledge industries.

 

Two important trends are changing the way knowledge work gets done in organizations:

 

The emergence of new ways of reaching and engaging workersThe automation of knowledge work by means of artificial intelligence and other technologies

 

Both trends have critical implications for business and are of particular importance to professional services firms.
