Francois Gossieaux, one of the founders of Human 1.0

Date: 
Sunday, June 26, 2011 - 10:00pm
Program: 

Francois Gossieaux  is one of the founders of Human 1.0, which maintains that to understand the fundamental shifts shaking up your business today you are better off understanding the Human 1.0 – which, by the way, has not changed in the last 10,000 years -- rather than trying to understand the Web 2.0 tools.

He is also author of The Hypersocial Organization.

Previously, Francois served as president of Corante, from 2005 to 2007, and as vice president and chief marketing officer of eRoom Technology, from 1998 to 2003.
