ACME Case Study - Points from our group...SWOT Part 2
May 10 2007, 12:29 PM EDT
Read part 1 first to see the Strengths and Weaknesses...

Opportunities: 1) Community can be built globally - more collective to solve problems; 2) Search engines built in collaboration tools, will allow for it to become a performance support tool to break down and analyse information relevant to one's needs; 3) An example from a group member www. askme.com has been using this concept for some time now or a system similar, would allow collaboration and based on an organizational incentive program, could provide opportunities for quickest replies, most effective replies.

Threat: 1) Too much information, where do I start looking? 2) Cultural shift, is our organization ready for this, COO, might really have a hard time if structure or rights are not monitored carefully; 3) Moving to a TOI model (transfer of information) - is the organizational ready to take the information and apply into their daily learning/performance routine; 4) Losing my identity...could employees, units, sections of an organization feel threatened with the now "We" approach vs the "Me" approach - whereby "Knowledge Sharing is Power vs Knowledge is power" respectively.
