…intolerant to inertia… …values of trust, transparency, openness… …challenge traditional processes and organizations…. …inspiring leaders rather than control-oriented managers… …judged based on their contribution rather than their seniority…
Grégoire Charpe-Civatte, Digital Workplace Communications Manager in a global industrial enterprise headquartered in Paris with a workforce of over 40,000 employees.
Interview with a Millennial
Interview page 150 in The Digital Workplace in the Connected Organization.
“ Millennials are “change-ready”. They are intolerant to inertia. Although they have no monopoly on “change”, by nature they are very strong supporters of it. …. When it comes to collaboration, they expect to be able to know, find and comment on information. They want to be heard. Their values are trust, transparency, openness and balance. They challenge traditional processes and organizations.
“
Grégoire Charpe-Civatte, Digital Workplace Communications Manager in Air Liquide (24/4/14)
Management-wise, I believe they are looking for inspiring leaders rather than control-oriented managers. They want to be judged based on their contribution rather than their seniority level in the company. ….The ideal Gen Y organization dynamic is based on sharing expertise and working in cultures of smart ad-hoc partnerships.

➡ Managed information and enterprise applications.
➡ Owned by Communication.
➡ At this stage, it is called the “intranet”.
➡ Structured according to the organizational structure with control and clear, distinct “territories” and responsibilities.

Authoritative, stable managed dimension
➡ The arrival of digital platforms for structured project collaboration brings “real work” to the intranet.
➡ Goals become productivity & efficiency.
➡ Business and IT work together to meet operational needs by creating collaborative platforms.
➡ Competition starts between the “intranet” and the “collaborative platform”.

➡ The arrival of “social media” in the enterprise brings disruption.
➡ People are empowered, potentially.
➡ Traditional roles of management, HR, IT and Communication are challenged as people begin to self-declare and self-organize.
➡ However, social stays in its own corner, isolated from “real work”.

➡ The convergence of the 3 dimensions goes beyond disruption to transformation.
➡ Social collaboration impregnates the enterprise facilitating visibility of work, openness, efficiency and accountability.
➡ The “digital workplace mode” requires leadership rather than management. It is built on : “freedom within a framework”.
➡ Self-organizing communities have strong influence over work and decisions.

Lexmark operates in an industry that is constantly and rapidly changing, so business agility is key to survival and prosperity. True agility requires ongoing information sharing and collaboration across the entire enterprise, which means that we must provide our employees with the ability, opportunity and motivation to collaborate. We have found that three interlocking components are essential for this.
““…
In Practice Case page 34 in The Digital Workplace in the Connected Organization.
““A flexible BYOD device policy and cloud-based applications make it easy for
users to access our systems whenever and wherever they need to. Flexible HR policies give employees the freedom to work on their own terms. For years we have had a liberal work policy that lets many employees decide when and how often they work from home versus coming in to the office. We deployed our social platform in 2012, and want our employees to “work out loud” – to work in a transparent, sharing environment. It can be a difficult transition shifting from emails with file attachments to wikis and discussion threads, so we try to find as many different ways as possible to bring people into the system…. When a social platform is full of engaged employees, the results can be powerful.
Dennis Pearce Enterprise Knowledge Architect, Lexmark

FOUR BUSINESS SCENARIOS
1. Ease and efficiency for customer-facing people.
2. Organizational flexibility when facing sudden change.
3. Developing skills and knowledge as a natural part of working.
4. Retaining knowledge and know-how
of older experts when they retire.

1. How easy is it for customer-facing people to… • find the information they need, • provide rapid service, • collaborate with their customers and colleagues, • and in general have a smooth and efficient work
experience?

“ (Our clients) remain delighted to pay our fee because our people working together provide a service that is second to none.
“
Adam Pope Senior Librarian, Arup
In Practice Case page 34 in The Digital Workplace in the Connected Organization.
“ In late 2012 Hurricane Sandy hit New York. Its subways were flooding and our client issued a call to Arup for help. Despite being home bound, the Director who received the call posted a message across the forums asking how other cities had coped in similar situations. Overnight, responses came in from Manila, London, Brisbane, Tokyo, San Francisco, Hamburg, Dublin and Singapore. Rich, detailed explanations with photos of solutions. A presentation was given to the client’s chair the following lunchtime and their trust in our services soared. They remain delighted to pay our fee because our people working together provide a service that is second to none.

Obstacles sur le “digital workplace journey” et approches identifiées lors de deux ateliers récents
Groupe de travail : responsables intranet/digital workplace, Paris, Mars 2014 (www.intranetwork.fr)
Workshop in Copenhagen at IntrateamEvent, February 2014 www.intrateam.com, annual conference
41
• Concrétiser ROI par success stories, témoignages, benchmarks • « Identifier des projets fédérateurs ou exemplaires existants
pour rendre concret l’avantage, capitaliser sur des initiatives. »
• “Do not fall into the ROI game. • Focus on examples, external or internal, that illustrate
business value.” • « Relais de haut niveau pour cascader dans tout le groupe »
• “You often have to do a sales pitch to individual senior managers. Find one person who ‘gets it’ who can then sell it across the Board level through peer pressure. For this to work, you need to have a toolkit to give to the senior manager to use in their discussions with their peers.”
Top management does not understand or wants to see ROI
42
• Global versus local conflicts – “Accept the situation: this ‘conflict’ is normal and common in
most organizations. Understand that there are many different ways of doing things, and be flexible. Build on your current situation, do not try to “destroy” it . Find out what can bring your different locations/offices together. Meet people in person, and get involved with them. Focus on this common ground, even if it is not ideal.”
• Créer une « infrastructure humaine », une communauté ‘digital workplace’ qui participent aux décisions – « Définir 1 sponsor + 1 ambassadeur par pays + animateurs
communautés »
Balance between common and specific
43
• Réussir à prioriser (contenus, processus) – Build "persona" based on "how do you work" and not "what
do you need from the digital workplace”. See what the persona need in common.
• Be alert to process dysfunctions. • Use them as opportunities to rethink how people work.
• Start simple. Be concrete. – “It is hard to get the organization to understand and focus
on the “digital workplace” so start instead with something very concrete: create incentives for people to complete their profiles. See if you can use technology to retrieve profile information from other sources (LinkedIn?).”
