4 You’re Seeing This in Your Personal Lives… Networks Have Changed Your Personal Life
Shopping Entertainment Communication & Collaboration Research You are seeing this unification in your personal lives. The networks we use to run our daily lives share the three components of TECHNOLOGY, COMMUNITY AND CAPABILITIES Now each of you have your own stories and know how you use any of these applications, but let’s use Facebook as an example The magic of facebook is not the feature, but that they created world largest network of personal connections. You go there because your friend/family/peers are there. You wouldn’t go elsewhere because your community isn’t there. Amazon has done the same thing with personal shopping. They offer world largest site for personal shopping… So think about how you use any of the services, what do they have in common? They are all cloud base. You log into them through web browser and you get your experience. They are built on a community. You don’t go to Amazon and think about having to build connections between all these individual vendors or your banking. They are all part of this community already. And because of the community, your experience is smoother. The important point is, WE RELY ON NETWORKS EVERYDAY, and business are become more Networked Enterprises as they rely more and more on networks to deliver critical business services. © 2012 Ariba, Inc.

“Increasingly companies are embracing collaboration as part of their strategy to grow.” 77% increased access to knowledge 63% increased marketing effectiveness 55% better information sharing 41% improved collaboration across silos 43% greater market share 24% increased revenue 8% higher margins This desire to work more effectively together is giving way to a major trend that is changing the way companies do business. This trend is something McKinsey calls the “Networked Enterprise,” and buyers and sellers who have been early to adopt it are transforming their trading partner relationships. And they are gaining huge business benefits: increased revenue, better access to knowledge through shared knowledge, higher margins. Becoming a networked enterprise requires a transformation of your people, processes and technology. “ Networked enterprises are 50% more likely to have increased sales, higher profit margins, gain market share, and be a market leader. ” Source: McKinsey & Company, “The rise of the networked enterprise, Web 2.0 finds it’s payday.” Survey of 4,394 executives.
