One of the nice things about social media is that every once in a while you get to say "he said it, not me".

Like I said, it wasn't me .. he said it. But it is appreciated ;-)
It's also true that we are not alone in "breaking the path". Valdis Krebs, Patti Anklam and Matthew Hodgson are some people aI know who have explored the ways to obtain (economic) value from the activity and interactivity in networks ... and no doubt there are others as well.

Increasing Discussion of Learning Evaluaton and ROI, Part 2
[ Snip ... ]
And finally, in the July 2009 issue of Chief Learning Officer magazine, Jay Cross and Jon Husband take the discussion of ROI in a truly path-breaking direction with their article "Productivity in a Networked Era: Not Your Father's ROI."
The authors begin by setting up the discussion:
"The network era now replacing the industrial age holds great promise. Networked organizations are reaping rewards for connecting people, know-how, and ideas at an ever-faster pace. Value creation has migrated from what we can see (physical assets) to intangibles (ideas). …Understandably, seasoned executives, chief learning officers among them, are having a devil of a time shifting from the industrial age mindset of logic, certainty, and bounded constraints to the network gestalt of interaction, self-organization, unpredictability, and fewer limits to potential. …We are shifting into an era in which knowledge work and learning occur where re-engineered business processes collide with a participative and interactive ecology of information flows."
Cross and Husband then introduce a new concept as follows: "In an environment of continuous flow and interaction, there’s a need to consider an emerging metric: return on investment in interaction (ROII). The working definition of ROII is the observable development of capacity and capability to create economic values out of intangibles."
In the rest of the article, the authors describe what traditional ROI was, persuasively convince the reader of the increasing value of intangibles, and note the inherent clash between this trend and the demand for ROI metrics. They describe the essential characteristics of business networks, and argue that ROI is simply not up to the task. They then give some assumptions for their analysis of ROII and describe some of the potential components that would be quantifiable. In doing so they include illuminating examples from such companies as Cisco, Ford, and Capgemini.
In closing, they frame the challenge as being: "Network returns are asymmetric, so simplistic count-’em-up approaches are no longer viable. But how can one make a solid network-era case to an executive who is still playing by yesterday’s rules?"
Read this entire article to learn their initial advice on how to answer that question, and to understand this ground-breaking conceptual proposal for the L&D industry.

<p>If you are a businessman or someone who has to wear dress Reebok Zig pulse shoes in your place of employment it is necessary to have at least a couple of pairs of quality Reebok ZigTech footwear. Unlike women, men tend to not be concerned as much about their choice of Reebok Easytone Shoes and tend to be lost when trying to find the right pair of Reebok ZigTech shoes. Depending upon how dressy your job Reebok EasyTone environment is you have several styles to choose from, here are a few things to consider that will help you make the right Discount Reebok zigtech choice for your situation.</p>
<p>Since the average person tends to walk five finger around three miles or so per day, the first thing you should be vibram shoes concerned with is comfort. How much padding do they have? Do they have a sturdy insole? If you have high arches you want a vibram fivefingers shoe that will rise up to support them. This is really the crucial five fingers consideration for comfort. Also, if you have a job that vibram five requires you to be on pavement or perhaps some other abrasive surface you may want to consider fivefingers kso with a Vibram sole which is a very comfortable rubber sole that is also resistant to tory burch shoes abrasion and chemicals.</p>
<p>The durability of the Tory Burch Flats footwear is another major consideration that needs to be looked at especially if you only have a couple of pairs of Tory Burch Flats sale that you will be wearing all the time. Whether you choose leather or discount tory burch flats rubber soles you want the shoes to have a high quality think sole. Inspect the Cheap Tory Burch Flats Sale stitching to be sure that it is tight and of good Nike Air Max craftsmanship. The think soles not only help to make the Nike air max 2010 shoes last longer but they also add to the comfort by absorbing some of the shock of repeated foot strikes.In any business Air Max 2009 environment there are different categories of dress such as business casual or formal. If you work in a law Nike Air Max 2009 office you will more than likely be required to wear Discount Air Max something more formal in contrast to an automotive Cheap Air Max dealership or retail sales store where you may be able to get away with the Air Max business casual look. It is my personal opinion that all men should have at least three pairs of dress Nike Air Max 95 shoes in these colors;</p>
Introducing Skechers Resistance Runner, Mens Skechers Resistance Runner claims that the SRR is the "world's first smart shoe." What does this mean? A biomechanical memory that corrects your stride. Can this really work?Womens Skechers Resistance Runner that the Skechers fitness shoes:1.burns 13.2% more calories per hour 2.increases calf muscle activation by 68% 3.increases back muscle activation by 85% 4.increases hip muscle activation by 71% 5.reaches your fat burning zone 11% faster 6.achieve your target heart rate faster 7.burn more calories in less time 8.strengthens your legs, back and core muscles 9.train harder in less time .The Resistance Runner SRR Running Shoes are sold by many retailers, but their inventory is low (my order was canceled twice because they were out of stock when I tied to buy then directly from Resistor SRR running shoes), you can see all the different styles by clicking here, and here is a link where you can buy them at the lowest price by clicking here - currently they are on sale which is the lowest price you will find anywhere. cheap Skechers Resistance shoes Buy them now because, this is an inventory reduction specialSRR Running Shoes so this price will only be available for a very limited time.We swear reebok easytone trainers muscle toning Discount Reebok Easytone are almost as magical as Dorothy’s slippers. But instead of clicking the heels together and saying “there’s no place like home,” it’s a bit more like taking a step and saying “wow, my butt looks great.”The key is the balance pods found in the sole. Much like balance balls you see in gyms, these incredible reebok easytone sneakers use air to provide a natural instability at every step that forces your muscles to adapt and work harder—you get 11% more hamstring and calf activation and 28% more gluteus maximus muscle activation.So while Reebok shoes have always been there for us in the gym, they’re now there for us everywhere we go with the reebok easytone sale and reebok easy tone.There are walking Easytone shoes, and then there are walking shoes that claim to boost your muscle tone by just walking around in them. Easy tone shoes is one line that promises to increase your muscle tone – in fact, they claim it’s like taking the gym with you just by wearing the shoes. With celebrities like Stacey Keibler and the Kardashians promoting the Reebok easytone shoes, it’s hard not to wonder if there is some truth to it. I’d love to be mistaken for Kim Kardashian from behind, and if these Reebok easytone are going to get me there, then I’m ready to try them!Reebok zigtech mens shoes has followed up on last year’s EasyTone training shoe launch with a new innovation – Reebok zigtech shoes. The brand is touting zigtech shoes as its most technologically advanced running and training shoe to date as it rolls out globally.It claims that the Cheap zigtech shoes unique zigzag-shaped outer sole conserves and returns energy to the athlete so that he or she can train longer and harder.The launch is being supported by an international marketing implementation created by Reebok zigtech sale global agency, DDB Berlin.
