Abstract

This paper, founded within Enterprise 2.0, knowledge management and informed learning theory, outlines the introduction of Yammer, an enterprise microblogging application at CPA Australia. The implementation and adoption process is discussed through usage analysis, and resulting outcomes through user success stories. Lessons learned provide a framework for organisations looking to adopt social networking tools within their own organisational environment.
