The ManageHub book is the companion to the free, cloud-based ManageHub software. The ManageHub book guides you through a step-by-step business optimization and turnaround strategy. You will learn that the greatest value of social networking is not the way it helps you stay connected to your friends. The greatest value is the way it can help you manage your team, department, or organization. With the proper configuration a social network can become a kind of "management machine" that automates a dynamic, self-sustaining and highly effective leadership process. You can use your ManageHub "management machine" as a powerful turnaround agent that transforms your organization from good to great. You can use it to create a collaborative Process Asset Library, where front line employees take responsibility for documenting and improving their work-activities. You can use it to create the ultimate Professional Learning Community where participants collaborate, share ideas, innovate, improve and optimize their areas of mutual interest. Learn how you can leverage the power of "Social" to transform your organization into a highly organized, innovative, productive, and profitable market leader.
