There are always those early adopters (think Twitter users in 2007 , Facebook users in 2004 ), but generally large-scale adoption of new communications tools takes years, often decades (think radio and television) – until now. The tools don’t provide meaningful, updated information. Behavior Change is Slow.

The primary reason is because social media tools reflect the culture of the organization – they can’t change the culture of the organization by themselves.
