Today many business thinkers draw corporate executives and managers attention to the opportunities bought by the Web 2.0 technologies. One of them is <a href="http://garyhamel.com/" rel="nofollow">Gary Hamel</a>, for example. I work with Andrew Filev, who writes about <a href="http://wrike.com/projectmanagement" rel="nofollow">transformations in project management</a>. The thing is new technologies make live easier for project managers; it becomes easy to adjust the project plans to ever-changing environments. So these new technologies make organizations more agile, and that means <a href="http://www.wrike.com/projectmanagement/09/29/2007/How-Do-Enterprise-2-0-Technologies-Make-Companies-More-Agile" rel="nofollow">more competitive</a>. Eric,

The issue is how you solve that problem and how quickly you can move to solve that problem. Many organizations take much too long to find the problem and then even longer to solve the problem. If you see the problem, find the simplest solution (if possible)..perhaps your solutions doesn't fix the problem completely but at least it gets you moving in the right direction. Hi David,

I want to first find out what are the business' most important and immediate problems and work directly on solving them, not build a solution and then see if its the right one.
