Abstract
:
"Organizations today aren't just participating in social networking, collaborative computing, and online communities--they are depending on those communities to play crucially important roles in their business. But these collaborative environments don't just manage themselves: To succeed, they must be guided and nurtured carefully, actively, and intelligently. In Social Networking for Business, Rawn Shah brings together patterns and best practices drawn from his extensive experience managing worldwide online communities at IBM and participating in social networking on the Internet. Drawing on multiple real-world examples, Shah identifies key success factors associated with launching social networking projects to meet business objectives and guides you through managing the crucial 'micro-challenges' you'll face in keeping them vibrant."--Publisher description.
