Led By: Dion Hinchcliffe
Location: Regus Center 10 South Riverside Plaza 18th Floor Chicago, IL 60606
Web 2.0 University’s Enterprise 2.0 Bootcamp will be coming to Chicago on September 18. Web 2.0 and its business application, called Enterprise 2.0, has been steadily transforming the business world for a few years, yet many business executives and line staff across America are just now focusing on what Enterprise 2.0 means and how to apply its tenets to their business. What is needed is a comprehensive and efficient way of clearly understanding the strategic competitive advantage of Enterprise 2.0 concepts.
For anyone not keeping up, Hinchcliffe & Company’s pioneering Web 2.0 University, the most trusted name in Enterprise 2.0 business education, has devised a special one-day event to get attendees up to speed on this generational shift in business thinking. Enterprise 2.0 Bootcamp is coming to various locations across the United States and Europe in 2008.
Being successful with Enterprise 2.0 requires a clear understanding of the critical success factors. Because, even as rewarding as Enterprise 2.0 has the potential to be, technical and organizational challenges exist which can inhibit accessing Enterprise 2.0’s potential. For example, adopters of Enterprise 2.0 techniques must define internal Enterprise 2.0 standards, oversee compliance to industry and governmental regulations, protect the privacy of participants, and secure the organization’s information while successfully encouraging workers to move to these new tools.
Enterprise 2.0 Bootcamp will provide attendees with the knowledge and skills needed to begin an Enterprise 2.0 initiative within your organization. You will be shown how successful Enterprise 2.0 projects can be structured and executed using case studies, emerging best practices, collaborative group exercises, and involved attendee interaction. Real-world experiences, lessons learned, and solutions are presented throughout. Enterprise 2.0 Bootcamp is taught by industry experts extensively experienced with corporate IT and closely involved with Enterprise 2.0 efforts.
