UK businesses and workers split on Enterprise 2.0: study – News – New Media and Search

Found at  UK businesses and workers split on Enterprise 2.0: study – News – New Media and Search.

Inefficient working practices are costing UK companies £900m every week, the equivalent to 30 wasted hours, according to a new survey.

The study, called Enterprise 2.0: Driving creativity, productivity and collaboration, was carried out by research house ICM and commissioned by Oracle. It found that the average worker spends over one hour every week looking for documents stored in email, personal folders or shared directories.

Oracle says that one of the reasons for this wasted time is the amount of applications people are using at work – the average employee uses over five different applications at work on a weekly basis. This lack of a centralised system for storing, accessing and managing documents means workers have to spend time copying and pasting the same information between documents stored in different places.

Resolutions 2011: When Customer Service Advisors Become Advocates… | CustomerThink

Found at  When Customer Service Advisors Become Advocates… | CustomerThink.

Perhaps some of us have become so selfish as customers that we expect everyone to subjugate their needs and wants to ours. That’s a TERRIBLE message to send to any other human being who does not sign on for that kind of ride. When those people bring their self-centered attitudes to advise and train others, it doesn’t fly. Not only is it offensive, but it simply doesn’t work and it calls into disrepute the entire field of customer service training.
