Irving Wladawsky-Berger, 07.12.2009: Reflections on Surviving Disruptive Innovations
by Irving Wladawsky-Berger: "As I was writing the blog, my personal experiences at IBM kept flashing through my mind, both our own near-death experience back in the early 1990s, and what we learned a few years later as we embraced the Internet and came up with the e-business market strategy, which played such a key role in helping to transform the business models and culture of the company.

McKinsey: What Matters, 27.10.2009: Using technology to improve workforce collaboration
by James Manyika, Kara Sprague and Lareina Yee: "Knowledge workers fuel innovation and growth, yet the nature of knowledge work remains poorly understood—as do the ways to improve its effectiveness.

Those able to use new technologies to reshape how they work are finding significant productivity gains. This article shares our research on how technology can improve the quality and output of knowledge workers."
