FIR Interview: Niall Cook on “Enterprise 2.0”
More and more companies are implementing social software for employee use, and many more that aren’t find that employees are taking advantage of services that exist outside the firewall in order to do their work more collaboratively. One of the first books to appear on this subject is “Enterprise 2.0: How Social Software Will Change the Future of Work,” by Niall Cook of Hill & Knowlton, the global PR agency. In this interview, Niall provides an overview of the book and explores some of the issues arising from integrating social media into an organization.
