Smart organisations understand the growing importance of tools

to facilitate collaboration and leverage the knowledge held across

an organisation and beyond. We’ve created the ON2net as a new

way of working together to achieve sustainable culture change.

This is the power of social business.

THE ON2net IS THE GLOBAL ONLINE COMMUNITY FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO CREATE BETTER ORGANISATIONS.

Can someone filter the information on the internet and tell us the bits worth reading?

Where can we connect with people in other organisations that have challenges that are similiar?

What’s the best way to keep conversations going between face-to-face meetings?

THE TakeON! COMMUNITY

WANT A SINGLE PLACE TO FIND INSPIRATIONAL CONVERSATIONS, GREAT TOOLS AND RESOURCES AND FRESH THINKING? LET’S START THERE.

THE TakeON! COMMUNITY

WHAT IS IT?

The ON2net is the social business platform of the TakeON! programme for business improvement. It is made up of a mixture of open sharing spaces and private groups, which allows teams and individual members to collaborate freely and securely. The international TakeON! team actively curate the ON2net, choosing the best of the web every day so you don’t have to.

BY CONNECTING TO OTHERS BOTH WITHIN AND OUTSIDE THEIR OWN ORGANISATION, MEMBERS DERIVE GREAT BENEFIT FROM EXPOSURE TO NEW IDEAS, APPROACHES AND WAYS OF THINKING.Membership includes both independent individuals and groups, as well as clients and associates of the TakeON! partner network.

Whatever your role, if you’re tasked with driving effective, sustainable behavioural change and improvement, then the ON2net will be a source of invaluable information and inspiration.

“ MY FUNDAMENTAL BELIEF IS THAT IF A COMPANY WANTS TO SEE THE FUTURE, 80% OF WHAT IT IS GOING TO HAVE TO LEARN WILL BE FROM OUTSIDE ITS OWN INDUSTRY.”Gary Hamel, Professor, London Business School

WHY IT WORKS

Key TakeON! principles underpin the approach

POSITIVE MOMENTUM

TakeON! starts by looking at what’s working in your business, and reflecting back on that when coming up with solutions for what needs to change.

IT GETS PEOPLE TALKING

TakeON! encourages two-way conversation over one-way information download and competitive debate.

STORIES, NOT OPINIONS

Ask for opinions and your people will wait for their bosses to answer first. With an emphasis on stories and examples, which is more comfortable to contribute.

ve+ I have a great story of how my

team did a fantastic job...

HOW IT WORKS• Active facilitation by the international

TakeON! team

• Access to an extensive range of practical tools and activities to address common culture related issues such as staff engagement, empowerment, leadership and customer service

QUOTES FROM MEMBERS

“ You don’t just say ‘well done’ or ‘that’s a good story’. You guys take the time to really delve into the posts giving us real insights and ideas. And you’re always encouraging.”

“ I’M HAPPY TO BE PART OF SUCH A REWARDING FORUM THAT ENCOURAGES ME TO BETTER MYSELF NOT ONLY IN THE PROFESSIONAL WORLD BUT ALSO IN MY PERSONAL LIFE.”

“ Really love this aspect of the ON2net: Leaders being able to share information and experience to help other leaders.”

“ In the current climate of significant change, uncertainty, hope and opportunity, some of the key messages and diagnostic tools from the workshops have already proven to be invaluable.”

“ Should be downloading planning templates, but I am sidetracked by all the other awesome information/polls/conversations instead!”

“ MAN, YOU GUYS ARE COOL. YOU ARE THE REASON I AM NOW A CONVERTED ‘SOCIAL BUSINESS’ INTERACTOR PERSON.”

“ I was doing last minute preparation for a meeting today and needed some ideas and resources to use for the discussion. With the ON2net, I was able to quickly search and find ideas and materials that were EXACTLY right to structure a great conversation with the team!”

“ OK. So I could be getting a little addicted. Something happened yesterday. I realised I could prop my computer up in my kitchen and watch while cooking, so I was able to reply and thank people. Thus working up some points, I am sure. You know the funny thing? I am not a Facebooker and don’t Tweet (I have never sent even one), but I do love reading business books. Enter the ON2net. I love it. Loved watching people’s recommended videos yesterday and looking forward to trying out new things with my team, new ways of thinking and being, and just bring on all the new adventures this precious life can bring.”

“ THANK YOU, ON2NET, FOR BEING SO EASY-TO-USE, FOR HAVING INFORMATION READILY AVAILABLE WHEN I NEED IT, AND FOR THE GREAT WEALTH OF CONVERSATIONS FROM THE COMMUNITY!”

“ I’m continually trawling the ON2net for stories and ideas and this is one we will be taking on board.”
