Hi,

I think we should find balance between the organizational change / development and tools (technology, software). They both drive each other.

I was some months ago giving a talk in a business conference about the "next generation wikis in competence development". I felt the audience was not happy when I told them that wikis are pretty much the same today as they were 10 years ago and there isn't any major new features coming up. The new "generation wiki" is the new people with different mindset and if one wants to use wikis in competence development the first step is to make your work place "wiki-friendly"

Your post also made me think about the LMS madness. I wrote about it some years ago. Here:
