1. People, process, and technology elements are in place to enable everyone to conveniently Share,
Innovate, Reuse, Collaborate, and Learn
2. A single global platform is available, with access to community sites, websites, team sites, content
repositories, and collaboration tools
3. Everyone can interact with the platform in the ways they prefer, including entirely by email, mobile
client, desktop client, web browser, RSS feed, etc.
4. Global, cross-functional communities are available for each major specialty, role, and focus area,
and they offer a site, a calendar, frequent events, useful news and content, and active discussions
5. Everyone belongs to at least one community, including the one most closely aligned to their work,
and pays attention to the community's discussions and activities
6. Anyone needing help, an answer to question, content, an expert, or information on what the firm
has done and can do can post in a community discussion board or the microblogging tool and
receive a helpful reply within 24 hours
7. Everyone can easily find, follow, be made aware of, and share what is going on in the
microblogging tool/activity stream, blogosphere, content repositories, etc.
8. People are recognized, rewarded, and promoted if they Share, Ask, Find, Answer, Recognize,
Inform, and Suggest, and leaders set a good example by doing so themselves
9. What one part of the firm knows, the rest of the firm knows; different parts of the firm routinely work
together; ideas are solicited and implemented; high levels of trust and transparency exist;
leadership engages with all levels of the firm's members; people interact with people they didn't
know before; and individuals learn effectively
10. Decisions are made quickly and effectively, it's easy to find information and resources, open
communications are made frequently and widely, redundant effort is avoided, mistakes are not
repeated, scarce expertise is made widely available, clients see how knowledge is used for their
benefit, sales and delivery are accelerated, innovation and growth are stimulated, morale is high,
and the firm's reputation is strong; as a result, the firm thrives
