Reviews

"’Abraham’s impressive book on diversity as process surveys new forms of working and learning (co-creating, gamification) in current and future organisation development (Big Data and the Internet of Everything). Abraham teaches us to leverage diversity and interactions across boundaries to build meaningful connections for success in a cyberconnected business world. She holistically highlights business and digital anthropology in organisational change and development.’ Philipp Amann, Transnational Threats Department, Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe 'Cyberconnecting and its ""three lenses"" closes a crucial intellectual gap about collaboration. It’s a thought-provoking work on leveraging human resources and shaping your business in a virtual world. Abraham gives you the conceptual foundation and tools needed to be successful with your digital initiatives and business transformation. A must read for all those serious on becoming a Social Business.’ Thomas A. Bryner, World-wide Social Business SWAT Team, IBM ’Cyberconnecting is more than a good read and a resourceful handbook packed with lively examples and exciting stories illustrating the case in point. This is an up-to-date guide to one of the most important themes in professional life for today and tomorrow - a must for junior and senior professionals in a wide range of careers.’ Andre Gingrich, University of Vienna, Austria"
