Objectives

But, Back to Our Objectives…

#e2conf @Ted_Hopton @@Donnalc300

Qualitative Metrics: Survey

Annual User Survey– How often they used it in

specific ways Several times/week

Weekly

Monthly

Occasionally

Never

19© Copyright 2010 2.0 Adoption Council, MITRE Corporation, United Business Media, Ltd. All rights reserved.

#e2conf @Ted_Hopton @@Donnalc300

Qualitative Metrics: Survey

List of positive outcomes– Strongly Agree

– Somewhat Agree

– Somewhat Disagree

– Strongly Disagree

20© Copyright 2010 2.0 Adoption Council, MITRE Corporation, United Business Media, Ltd. All rights reserved.

#e2conf @Ted_Hopton @@Donnalc300

Qualitative Metrics: Survey

Why Don’t You Use It More?– Strongly Agree

– Somewhat Agree

– Somewhat Disagree

– Strongly Disagree

Blunt, negative statements– Ask for it!

– Let them tell you how they feel

OK, this is going to hurt a little– It’s a benchmark

– Listen, learn, then improve

21© Copyright 2010 2.0 Adoption Council, MITRE Corporation, United Business Media, Ltd. All rights reserved.

#e2conf @Ted_Hopton @@Donnalc300

Qualitative Metrics: Survey

The Bottom Line Question– How likely are you to recommend using it to a colleague?

– Scale of 0-10, with zero least likely and 10 most likely

Net Promoter Score© (NPS)– Scores of 9-10 = Promoters (7-8 = Passive Positives)

– Scores of 0-6 = Detractors

– NPS = % Promoters - % Detractors

Positive NPS means more people promoting than detracting

Negative NPS means the opposite

A Truly Comparable Metric– Even very different communities can compare NPS

#e2conf @Ted_Hopton @@Donnalc300

Qualitative Metrics: Wins

Success Stories: “Wins”– Invite people to write up and submit wins

Small, medium and large

All kinds:

•cost-saving, revenue

•“Soft” wins: collaboration, communication, efficiency, innovation…

– Celebrate Wins

– Share them as examples for others

#e2conf @Ted_Hopton @@Donnalc300

Lessons Learned

Metrics will (and should) evolve– Technology evolves new measurement capabilities

– Your skill with the technology will evolve better at pulling out data you need

– Your understanding of your community & objectives will evolve with experience

– Your community will evolve it’s alive, it will change, it will surprise you!

Numbers + Surveys + Stories– Collect all three

– Look at the whole picture

24© Copyright 2010 2.0 Adoption Council, MITRE Corporation, United Business Media, Ltd. All rights reserved.

#e2conf @Ted_Hopton @@Donnalc300

Lessons Learned

There are no generally accepted benchmarks for Enterprise 2.0 communities

– No one knows what results you *should* see for your community

– Your Culture + Your Objectives = A Unique Community

Benchmark Against Yourself– Aim for progress and improvement over time

– Compare different parts of your community with each other

Use Case 1: Improve MITRE’s Research Program Selection Process

Deploy an innovation management tool as the host environment for the research competition

Enable codification of the research competition process

Collect all ideas in one place and record all participation (eliminate early “weeding out” of ideas)

Better support “teaming” of proposers from across the corporation with similar ideas (improve collaboration)

Encourage much broader participation in both proposing ideas and commenting on ideas

Improve user experience and satisfaction of participation (visibility, feedback, standard process, idea targeting)

Use an externally-hosted application (cloud service)

Idea Market

#e2conf @Ted_Hopton @@Donnalc300

MIP User Satisfaction Summary: 2008 vs. 2009 Respondents reported considerable engagement with the

process

Clear improvement in perceptions that the process is understandable and predictable

Clear improvement in perceptions of fairness/consistency in proposal evaluation

Still only a (sizable) minority of respondents who feel that they understand or have received adequate rationale for funding decisions

More participants (41%) agreed that the process improved their competition experience than disagreed (27%)

Used survey technique to assess user experience

#e2conf @Ted_Hopton @@Donnalc300

Use Case 2: Social Bookmarking (with Laurie Damianos)

Hypothesized social bookmarking would improve resource sharing, leveraging others research across teams and corporation

– Some use of external tools like delicious already occurring

Could feed expertise finding

Could replace current “knowledge zones” – subject-based websites maintained by corporate stewards (consider corporate goals, not just end user goals)

Increase participation in knowledge sharing

Subscription to topic areas

More granular information management technique via tagging

Ease of ‘re-finding’ information or highlighting resources (recommended, lesson learned, etc)

MITRE-Babson SNA Study

(Bill Donaldson, Donna Cuomo, Sal Parise, Bala Iyer)

Study Findings• Its not just frequency of use that is important with these tools, but rather, who you are connecting to (uniqueness)

• Brokerage, in both social networks and technology-mediated networks, has a positive impact on personal innovativeness

• Both of the technology networks (ListServ and social bookmarking/ tagging) provide unique, significant value

• The social network & the technology networks complement each other

#e2conf @Ted_Hopton @@Donnalc300

Measuring Business Value

Understand and explicitly document your goals for deploying a particular social tool. What benefits do you expect to achieve?

Think about what evaluation methodologies and objective metrics would help you understand if these desired behaviors are occurring

End users are not your only user group– Research analysts, commenters/reviewers, expertise finding, recommending, ….

Increasing the number of unique connections in a person’s social network has value

Cutter study notes it isn’t always possible to measure business value of a social tool from a prototype

– Need critical mass, long tail effect of many one-to-one benefits, takes 2-3 years for behavior changes to occur, etc

Use realistic benchmarks of participation to assess the adoption success of your tool

– Social tool use and patterns not always comparable to business tool use
