Lee Bryant
About: I am a co-founder and Director of Headshift, a 30-person enterprise social computing consultancy that has pioneered the deployment of social tools inside the firewall. We do equal amounts of strategy consulting, integration and development and also engagement work. I am also on the Board of Involve, a UK charity set up to explore new forms of public participation, and an adviser to several other social enterprises.
I have an enduring passion for the empowering potential of the internet, and am committed to using this to humanise business practice.
Headshift works with top 10 global law firms, professional services firms and large corporations. In the media sector, we work with well known newspapers and organisations such as the BBC and Channel 4. We are also known for innovative work in our health, education and public sector practices.
Headshift is growing fast, but the opportunity for social tools in the enterprise is bigger than we can realise on our own. Please consider joining us, becoming a competitor or partnering with us to change the face of enterprise computing ;-)

The FASTForward Blog » In uncertain times, Enterprise 2.0 takes the stage: Enterprise 2.0 Blog: News, Coverage, and Commentary
"As traditional enterprise vendors suffer, a panacea for investors and customers is emerging with the nascent enterprise social software industry. Until now, Enterprise 2.0 has sat on the sidelines of the enterprise software industry, seen perhaps as less focused and more predisposed to conversation than action."
The FASTForward Blog » Awareness Report Shows Significant Rise in Enterprise Social Media - Will It Continue?: Enterprise 2.0 Blog: News, Coverage, and Commentary
Here is another of the growing reports on research that indicates enterprise 2.0 is on the rise. Recently Awareness released a report on “Trends and Best Practices in Adopting Web 2.0 in 2008.” It shows that social media initiatives are on are increasing and continue to evolve. There is a focus on the deeper and broader integration of Web 2.0 technologies with other enterprise systems, enabling greater participation from both internal and external audiences. This is consistent with what I am hearing from others sources ((e.g., Forrester, AIIM, Aberdeen, Gilbane, etc.).
