As an aside, one of the vexing issues of writing occasionally for an industry blog like FASTForward is that you get pitched (spammed) by email from every PR dog and her or his master on the off-chance you might decide to write a few words.  This Many management gurus claim “people matter,” but still relegate strategy to an elite set of executives who focus on frameworks, long presentations , and hierarchical approaches. Following up on my recent post about employee engagement being a core goal for the adoption of Enterprise 2.0 capabilities, here’s a snippet from Brought to you by: Work Literacy

Recently Tom Vander Wall has posted a really thoughtful blog post that says what I have experienced. Sounds a lot like a continuation to the SAP runs [organization X] (and not the other way around as it’s of course presented in the marketing pitches) paradigm. My friend Jon Lebkowsky suggested that I blog my response.

During this – my first, official year of retirement from full-time work – I’ve gone to plays, written about the theatre, helped organise it, advised on it, started a blog to help others find their ways around and through it, and generally pretty much been absorbed in my art form of choice.  The diary says 75 individual meetings or presentations – good grief!  The theatre and I have had a love affair for many years now; my Actors Equity membership card notes 13 March 1973 as my joining date, but that is just the marker of when it became a day job for real; the affair began long before then.  Brought to you by: Work Literacy
