Beth’s piece reminded me of the conversation that took place in the comments in the above post, especially the idea of different process by which organizations start or operate in order to change with the changing times/culture/etc.

Would love to hear your thoughts!

Thanks again

My pleasure! I am completely fascinated with the cultural patterns that are informing (restricting even) the process of social media adoption in nonprofits. We can learn from the past or let it stumble us up again, right?!

What do you think is going to be a necessary step to move away from the silos that is unique to this time/socail media?

Looking forward to seeing you at NTC next weekend!

Thanks for the ping. I went back over the past year and half and condensed conversations from my blog on this topic. In looking back at the threads from 2006-7, it’s gone to a new level or maturity in terms of the adoption curve of social media within nonprofits. It reminds of the conversations that took place 10-15 years as nonprofit grappled with adopting the use of email marketing, web sites, and the Internet into the workplace. Some of the silo behavior is legacy from years ago.
