This short article contains the visual outline of the article, using an OpenSource "mind mapping" software and community, called Xmind.net The original abstract and bibliography was published on 2009-09-10 democracy @ work: the map

everybody talks about democracy- at the polls.

but why limiting democracy to a voting exercise? how could you extend that into the workplace?

and what are the consequences of new technologies and media access to the workplace social environment



read this short article for an explanation of the visual map (and a link to the source, so that you can study its details!)

visual approach

A picture is worth 1000 words.

Actually, a picture can be used as an outline to understand more than 1000 words.

I have no artistic pretense- but I think visually.

As explained in the the presentation, the abstract is the first step, followed by this map, and then, the article.

Read the abstract if you want to think about your own position on the subject. Read the map if you want to just see what are my arguments. And read the article if you want to read my position and some experience-based ideas and suggestions.

BACKGROUND

Are the new technologies just another set of tools? Few examples and considerations seed the discussion.

ABSTRACT

Until not too long ago, innovations in technologies and business processes required capital investment.

The new "crowdinnovation" approach changes the communication and negotiation model.

BIBLIOGRAPHY

The target is, obviously, how to get the best out of the innovation that you cannot control.

And how to motivate employees to contribute.
