    Jive's Founders Took An Amazing 11 Year Ride From Iowa To IPO

    Last year, we toured Jive Software's Palo Alto headquarters and were introduced to the bottle of 1952 Macallan scotch they kept behind glass for a "material public event" -- an IPO or sale.

    Today, Jive had its first board meeting since the company's successful IPO in December, and Business Insider got an exclusive invitation to watch as boardmember Bill Lanfri broke the bottle out for the executive team and the board -- including Google Chrome leader Sundar Pichai, former Facebook exec Jonathan Heiliger, and former McAfee CEO Dave DeWalt.

    The rest of the company joined in with 21-year-old scotch and champagne, taking a break from the business of building and selling software that lets big companies communicate and share information internally and with customers -- a mission that they often liken to building a Facebook for the enterprise.

    Ricoh Gives Some Employees More Mobile Freedom

    The U.S. division of Ricoh has a new policy allowing employees differing degrees of autonomy with regards to the mobile devices they use, based on their roles. The policy is part of a broader move to increase productivity and idea-sharing at all levels of the company. 

    The company uses software from Salesforce.com to help manage its sales and customer support, but decided to use software from Jive for its online collaboration. Rothenberger said the Jive application is farther along than Salesforce.com’s Chatter collaboration software and "we want to set the culture [of increased collaboration] now."

    How Social Technologies Can Smooth The Road To IPO

    An IPO is not just one of the most important marketing events in a company’s history. It’s also one of the biggest tests of a company’s ability to orchestrate and manage communications, internally and externally.

     

    Going public means juggling all sorts of legal requirements, investor sensitivities, and strategic concerns—while still keeping a steady flow of information going out to a public eager for the latest news. The stakes are obviously huge, and the room for error is tiny.

    It’s a use case made-to-order for Social Business technologies, which provide a way to centrally coordinate communications, sync up all participants and make a potentially stressful process much more manageable. That was certainly true in our case at Jive Software. When we completed our own public offering this past December, the successful outcome was due in no small part to our heavy reliance on social tools (including our own).
