Gee, I never thought of Brandon-Hall as a large consulting firm. Did you just buy out McKinsey or Gartner or Forrester?

I used to purchase these reports and I have clients who have purchased these reports and I have read these reports after the initial (very high) cost has gone down. Can’t think of any that really impressed me. To be transparent, I have used B-H reports in my work (legally procured) and found them rather useful.

What reports from large consulting firms do you read? Such reports usually come at a fee and you’re pretty transparent about your stand on that. Not sure you’ve read any of mine ; )

(Just a little grist from the mill. Just sayin’.)

Sometimes we don’t even know that we’ve learned something until much later. That makes it hard to develop clear and measurable ROI calculations, and I why I think they should be used with extreme care when examining social activities like collaboration.

All of the information you provided is wonderful. I agree, if we do not manage the process and information flow, it is a waste. There is such a fine line between productive collaborations and wasteful communication. If we can thread value learnings into internal wikis and various “sites”, we expand our knowledge base and really learm from other’s experienves and perspectives. These are the details so many loose when only considering “knowledge” based e-learnings. What can we learn from each other?
