Before Enterprise 2.0…

The firm was a scary place.

• Simple tasks were hard to organize, causing great strife amongst employees

• All 100 employees did not feel connected to the firm and to each other

• Important information on clients and accounting regulations took too much time to find

Enter Enterprise 2.0!

What happens?

www.linkedin.com

Jimmy remembers that his coworker Michael is friends with an accounting professor at a university. He e-mails Michael over linkedin.com to ask if he can be introduced to professor David to ask his advice over this issue.

Jimmy gets some input for the solution of the problem and his boss and clients praise him for his decision.

Only 30 minutes remaining in the day…
