Louise Ross from the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants has created a blog post and paper to guide CIMA members on constructing business cases for Enterprise 2.0 efforts

Having mentioned Qumana in a recent post, the ever-vigilant Qumana team picked up on my comment and asked if I’d look again at the tool. As I promised, here is a note of my re-visit. In the spirit of the thing, this post is written using the tool (3.0.0-b2 Beta).
