CEOs Who Use Twitter - Live from BusinessWeek!
This isn”t OCS-related, but it is communication-related. Something interesting I ran across this morning:
CEOs Who Use Twitter - BusinessWeek
50 CEOs who use Twitter to stay in touch. Looks like the old-time myth of the “unreachable boss” has gone away!
The reason I like this is not because of Twitter (which I do find interesting, but easily-abused). It’’s because things like OCS and Twitter help flatten old communication hierarchies.
Used to be, if you wanted to talk to the boss, you had to make an appointment with the secretary. Wait a while. MAYBE get approved. Then stammer out your request, hoping you won”t lose your job for it.
These days, communication tools reduce all that to a few minutes. The boss has to get involved, you get your work done, and everybody saves time. THAT”S what I like!
