Connect, Communicate, Collaborate
Trailblazers and New Paths
While researching for Social Media At Work, we talked to hundreds of "trailblazers" - people like you and us who are exploring how social media can improve their organizations.  Here are just a couple of the Trailblazers you'll find in the book.

British Telecom
With their wiki, BTPedia, News 2.0 online newspaper, Podcast Central and Blog Central, BT has created a network of collaboration and knowledge sharing tools for employees.

Intel Corporation
 Intel believes that trust  and agility are key in engineering productivity.  Their central portal enables access to all blogs, wikis, and discussion forums, providing a one stop shop for teams to build virtual relationships and share the information they need.

Humana
Talent development is a central part of Humana's success.  Their social networking tools enable leaders to gain the insights of their colleagues.  Rather than receiving just information, employees natually add the context needed to turn data into wisdom.

Leaders are talking...
