I think it's critical as the information revolution started 15 years ago or so is finally pushing real structural changes to the way we do business. Just like the hyperlink dramatically changed the categorization of information, social technologies are changing how people organize themselves and their work. It's a fun time to be working in this area but it can also be pretty disruptive and anxiety producing. Hi Gaurav -

What is amazing to know is that there are so many different firms :-) Check out Watson Wyatt - the HR consulting firm which is getting into the game from a workforce communication perspective http://www.watsonwyatt.com/us/news/press.asp?ID=18787 However I think communication is just the tip of the iceberg :-) Interesting list !
