The question I get asked by business is how to work out loud so here is a guide I have created that you can follow over the course of one month to set up the habit and practice using your enterprise social network.

What is Working Out Loud?

Working out loud is the process of sharing, showing and narrating your work and learning openly for the purpose of achieving professional or personal goals.

You can do this on public social networks or through your company’s enterprise social network if you’re concerned about sharing your knowledge and work publicly for reasons of privacy, security or confidentiality.  Sharing your work, knowledge and experience within the company will allow you to connect with peers and build networks across departments, identify opportunities for collaboration as well as solve customer problems.

What is the Work Out Loud in a Month pack?

The Work Out Loud in a Month pack is a series of daily activities that you can do to establish a habit to share your work, knowledge and expertise inside the company using your enterprise social network.

These activities take no longer than 5 minutes to complete and you can integrate them with your daily work while at work or on the go.

It also doesn’t matter what enterprise social network you have.  Whether it’s Slack, Yammer, SharePoint Communities, Microsoft Teams, Facebook at Work, SocialCast, Jive and the myriad of other social collaboration systems, the activities work for ALL of them.

How Do You Complete the Activities in the Pack?

The activities are many and varied and it’s up to you to either follow them in the order they are written over the week or, to do whatever one takes your fancy on the day.

You can choose to do them individually or you can do them as a team focused on a project you’re working on and learning about.

The aim really is to help you establish a consistency with your work out loud process and build in flexibility so that you choose what you want to do, when you want to do it and in the manner that you want.

So what are you waiting for?

If you’ve thought that you needed a prod every now to remember to share your work, learning and experiences to others to start cross-team conversations that improve your work and build your networks, then buy the guide and let it be the prompt that you need every day.
