We see the world, not as it is, but as we are — or, as we are conditioned to see it. When we open our mouths to describe what we see, we in effect describe ourselves, our perceptions, our paradigms.
― Stephen R. Covey

لا تظن الهدوء الذي تراه في الوجوه يدل على الرضا .. لكل إنسان شيء في داخله يهزهُ ويعذبه Don’t mistake the calmness you see on faces for satisfaction; inside every human, there is a thing torturing him.

Is Social Business Dead? The Argument Dissected
In recent weeks commentators have been debating whether social business is dead, sleeping or just waking up. As a pre-view to tomorrow’s webinar Is the Social Business Gold Rush Over? with Social Media Club founder Chris Heuer, Guy Stephens from IBM, Richard Hughes from Broadvision, and Luke Brynley-Jones of Our Social Times. I collated and dissected the various view-points from the contributor below, which you can read over on Our Social Times.

It is difficult talking about social business without immediately falling into a language of cliches, appropriated words and somewhat playful word acrobatics - disruption, openness, trust, collaboration, participation, authenticity, transparency, decentralisation, reciprocity amongst the more mainstream ones. These words are bandied casually around like some charm or amulet in the belief that their mere mention will magically transform a business willing to listen into a 'social business'. And yet, when we realise that the 'pixie dust' doesn't work, as is inevitably the case, we stand dumfounded and incredulous. It wasn't meant to be this difficult. I ask myself, in some kind of self-absorbed monologue (and yes there have been many): Why can't others see the future that I see? But despite these moments of self-indulgent reflection, there is a certain inevitability about the notion of the social business, which in time will transmogrify into simply - business. Regardless of which 'school of social soundbite' you subscribe to, there are two undercurrents, amongst others, which in a sense nullify the many protestations, hesitations and nervous discussions that exist towards social business today, and in a sense render the term social business meaningless anyway. The first is that this shift is in the hands of people, not customers, not organisations, but people - you and me. We have access to the most powerful tools of mass communication that we have ever had. We are not about to give this up. In 2008, Clay Shirky wrote: "When we change the way we communicate, we change society." Perhaps he states the case somewhat dramatically, but the point is made. The second is that the people who are toing and froing today about social business - that's you and me as well -are not the people who will be working, making decisions or buying the products and services that will exist in 10, 20 or 30 years time and beyond (well, hopefully not working or making decisions at any rate). By that time, the discussion about the ROI of social business or the definition of what a social business is will hopefully and mercifully be no more than a faint memory consigned to some earnest PhD student's research somewhere, if indeed, the discussion was ever really needed anyway.
