Abstract

Based on data and experiences gained in projects aimed to implement social software into German-speaking enterprises, we identify and discuss four observed phenomena concerning future developments in IT-based collaboration environments: new organizational structures, changing communication practices, increasing individualization of employees and blurring of boundaries between work and life. Additionally, this position paper exemplarily provides and discusses two feasible solution approaches to cope with identified trends and their impact and lists relevant case studies. The presented research-in-progress is dedicated to application oriented scientists in order to understand socio-technological aspects, when implementing Web-based information systems in order to facilitate communication, cooperation and knowledge sharing.
