- Enterprise 2.0 - The dark forces of collaboration
- Reverse Interaction Modelling™
- Business processes are not your business
- The Agile Virtual Enterprise
Management briefings are lectures, presentations or short workshops whereby we introduce a new concept or approach or try stimulating non-traditional thinking on specific management issues. Most often, these briefings are used in the early phase of a new project, as part of a kick-off meeting, a brainstorming session, etc.
In general, we do not bring ready-made answers or methodologies in such briefing. Instead, we present in a very visual way a number of, often conflicting, sometimes even controversial ideas that can be the basis for new insights.
Below, you can find the brief descriptions of a few standard briefings. Format and content can be adjusted in order to fit the specific context or audience.

The 'real' enterprise 2.0 - getting it right... and boring
Today, a growing number of companies are deploying various Enterprise 2.0 initiatives. However, often the results are below expectations, or the adoption is slow or it is difficult to keep the momentum after the initial start. Why is it so difficult? And the 'real' Enterprise 2.0, how real is this as a target?

Enterprise 2.0 - The dark forces of collaboration
More than ever, Enterprise 2.0 is the talk of the town. However, the discussion remains clouded by a continuing bias towards tools and technology and the setting of unrealistic expectations. In this briefing, we have a closer look at the real internals of Enterprise 2.0, the dark forces of collaboration.

Reverse Interaction ModellingTM - designing a better business by designing better interactions
Reverse Interaction Modelling (RIM) is an approach whereby we try to envision how our interactions with customers, partners and employees have an impact on their willingness to do (more) business with us. Once this vision created, we can start thinking about ways to adjust these interactions or to create new interactions that will further strengthen this willingness.

Business processes are not your business - The case for Business Interaction Management
BPM (Business Process Management) has been a hot item over the past years. Still, most of the basic concepts of BPM have their roots in production and supply chain environments where repetitive, standardised processes prevail. Unfortunately, today's business environment has evolved towards a networked knowledge economy where processes exhibit far greater complexity and variability. This briefing is a pleading for a more interaction-focused BPM approach.

The Agile Virtual Enterprise - Empty concept or future necessity?
In this management briefing, we explore the duality of innovation within a traditional organisation. As a starting point, we position the AVE, the Agile Virtual Enterprise, a concept that received a lot of attention a couple of years ago, but that has somewhat disappeared from stage since. What was the promise of the AVE? Why would this stimulate innovative thinking? Is innovation really possible within a traditional organisation?
