Accenture CIO Frank Modruson talks to Computer Weekly's Bill Goodwin about Accenture's moves to exploit social networking technology within the business to maximise employees' collaborative potential.
Accenture has recently launched an internal social networking platform specifically aimed at aiding internal collaboration, called Accenture Collaboration 2.0, including, among other features, document preview search, a 'people profiles' tool and a fledgling internal company wiki. He explains how such web 2.0 tools can be used to help speed knowledge transfer within a business, and for other benefits.
