#SMWF N. America 2012 – November 27th & 28th as a two day conference – Anyone attending?

Seems like this might be a could opportunity to create awareness for the SBCG

Now in its 3rd year, #SMWF N.America is set to return to New York on November 27th & 28th as a two day conference providing top-level strategic advice and social media marketing insight around how to engage customers, manage brand perceptions, empower employees and open new un-tapped audiences through diverse social media channels.
#SMWF N.America will focus on high-level conference content, facilitating seamless networking experiences and breaking down barriers, ensuring our delegates can connect and collaborate with each other in an environment that’s wholly conducive to forging valuable partnerships.

LinkedIn Group for the SBCG – Don Buddenbaum

I’ve created a moderator driven LinkedIn group to help us connect to adjacent networks.     Let’s limit membership to the CG until we discuss how to move forward.  I would like some feedback on setting up the rules and objectives to meet our needs. http://www.linkedin.com/groups/Social-Business-Community-Group-4686032?home=&gid=4686032&trk=anet_ug_hm

Use case development – Proposed work threads

Noise management – as the network grows – more of a chance for noise – more likely to fragment and disintegrate based on that noise

  • approaches –  hidden follow button – practical 100-150 person limit
  • provide segregation – groups/communities/ – re-silo’d  – dilutes the social mechanism
  • use cases to articulate the problem, how to solve, see if we can learn from this

examples: – mixing a variety of information sources – what is the right method to change from noise to value – a user mechanism (custom views/aggregation – third party aggregation)  bringing things together replacing the follow model – segregation) – context aware approaches, introduce high energy content/hot topics, we know that things are silo’d – bring additional information (e.g. role relevant)

  • – letting the user manage the content without degenerating to self-siloing
  • – better tools to tune/re-tune the view
  • – counter self-selection and silos by introducing additional content back

– Implications of engaging with new people, how much to disclose, how to introduce additional participants (based as context and security without over disclosing)

Proposed out come: how do we stitch together an example and then create a POV on addressing – generalized use case (explain problem/define requirements for a proof of concept)

  • find a way to keep connecting people and information – preserving and extending the value of social
  • avoid having a new skin over an old problem

Questions:

  1. how do we bring background / corroborating information
  2. how to build a straw-man that resonates with the community, and can be iterated
  3. how do we make this actionable – what’s the engage model that creates value(usable information (maturity)) and draw into engaging – create an event

Meeting Password: This meeting does not require a password.

Agenda:

The consensus from 8/28 SBCG and subsequent follow-up suggestions focus on growing the influence of the SBCG.  In that context I propose the following agenda for the 9/18 call:

1) Ed Krebs 30 mins:   Review work he’s been doing at Ford on a landscape for understanding the characteristics of social media solutions in a social business context.

2) Jeff Calusinski 15 mins:  Review work he’s been doing at IBM on a Social Business Evolution Framework

3) Group discussion on leveraging these sorts of approaches; as well as existing work, to categorize and identify consumers and appropriate future deliverables for the SBCG.
