Facilitating group performance: building social organizations, workplaces and technologies

HR Vision 2017 Keynote - Jon Ingham from Jon Ingham

People have evolved to live in groups and our organizations succeed or fail based mainly upon group performance. However most of our management activities focus on individuals. Shifting focus requires us to incorporate new group structures and to align the design of HR processes as well as workplaces and social / digital technologies with these new groups. 

At HR Vision Amsterdam, 6-7 June 2017 Jon Ingham gave a keynote presentation in which he described and provided examples of social organizations in which groups provide the basis for effectiveness and competitiveness. The session also reviewed the role of HR, working in cooperation with other social leaders, in facilitating changes in perspective and management practices. Delegates learnt how to unleash the power of our social brains and social networks to transform organizational performance.
