This time, I turned the tables on my friend Jeremy Lurey, PhD who is CEO of Plus Delta Consulting. As you might know, Jeremy and I had a conversation a month ago on utilization of social networks as an enterprise collaboration tool. This time – and still wearing my Pringo CEO hat – i wanted to see how these new collaboration tools (aka corporate social networks or online communities) help enhance performance within the organizations, and bring change effectively and quickly into the organization.
As you can see yourself, as always, Jeremy is straight to the point and full of great information. Our conversation went beyond what you see on the video here, and i hope to really capture it some other time and add it to this blog.
Here is the video. Enjoy.
As always, I am interested to know what you think.

Attached, please find my discussion with Jeremy Lurey of Plus Delta Consulting regarding use of social networking tools in enterprise collaboration. I am wearing my CEO of Pringo (Enterprise Portal & Social Network Platform Provider), and CEO of RedSeeb [Internet Market and Social Network Strategy Provider] hats. Jeremy and his Plus Delta team are experts in Organizational Development and Change Management. In this interview style video, Jeremy and I discuss various ways that an organization could take advantage of social media to embrace their clients, employees, vendors, and partners.
I’d love to hear your comments. See the video here

I watched the premier episode of Shark Tank on ABC last night. i had followed the British version of it on BBC, and expected it to show up in the US channels anytime. It was very interesting from a business standpoint. You see a variety of entrepreneurs with different backgrounds, ideas, and products looking for investment from 5 rich business people or the ’sharks’. Sharks have different business backgrounds: technology, real estate, clothing, etc.
To me this is a great show for any entrepreneur out there: It makes you think about your product/service, it’s price, market, and sales; and the idea that how much would it be worth at this stage and in long term. It also shows that charisma and personality go a long way in selling the idea to the right partner.
Another interesting lesson: The sharks are there to make money, and more of it. So, if they like you, and your company, they’ll want a bigger piece. Don’t be intimidated and negotiate! Ask questions. Give counter offers. Take your time: if they like you and your product, they’ll drop everything else to talk to you.
