That stimulation can be as simple as making the tools available, or providing some initial stimulation or sponsorship. My own view, itself derived from complexity theory is that you need to create an environment in which people can play with multiple tools, moving some of the results to a formal environment, when and if needed. With the growth of social computing and familiarity with those tools this easy to achieve.

Well, a few weeks back Lee Bryant , CEO and co-founder of Headshift , part of Dachis Group , invited me to participate on the upcoming SOMESSO / Headshift Social Business Summit that will be taking place next week, on March 18th , where I will be moderating one of the panels: the one on Internal Use of Social Software, where I will try to share some further insights on what IBM has been doing for nearly three years now with one of its most successful social software adoption programs: BlueIQ . It surely promises to be a rather interesting one, since I’ll be moderating
 

The Best from the Communities and Networks Connection Community

wanted to share some of them, and find out what you use and how. Patrick Lambe and the folks at Straitsknowledge created a deck of cards to introduce people to knowledge management and knowledge sharing methods. the frotn of the card has a little drawing, and the backs give an overview of either a method, approach or tool. I love things you can touch and play with when facilitating face to face. This is probably why I was so attracted to the “drawing on walls” involved in graphic facilitation , kinesthetic modeling and just plain PLAY as a way to
I’m long-winded on the topic of new skills for knowledge workers and learning professionals, even if I don’t quite understand what a learning professional is. For this post, community is defined as a group of people with bounded membership who have some shared, congruent interest and interact with each other over time. Social networks, particularly those made possible through online tools, are It has become clear. Here is part 3.
I’ve been co-designing and c0-facilitating a number of workshops for the CGIAR and FAO over the past few years about knowledge sharing, and more recently, this phenomenon people call “social media.” thought I’d share a few of them on this blog.  This topic is designed to give you some tools and ideas for including 8221; Part of this work has been to  comb through resources and create some launch pads that are relevant to NGOs and non profits. I
This afternoon I’m spending a half hour on a Skype video conversation to share a bit of how I use social media. The second seminal experience was taking part in George Por’s “Knowledge Ecology University” or KEU as we called it, and the  relationship forming event of the KE Fair . Heaven because we can access knowledge and relationship like never before. I figured it would be good to exercise my memory a bit and unearth some of the key stories that led me to to my social media use today, and perhaps surface some of my patterns.
was hoping that you would provide insight into the core skills and knowledge around communities and networks that learning professionals should have? As you know, I strongly believe that in the future all knowledge workers will need the ability to effectively participate in communities and navigate networks in order to perform their work. What’s the 5 minute and 60 minute learning piece that all knowledge workers should It is hard to let some Tony Karrer disappointment persist. After posting my 4 Meta Skills for Learning Professionals in response to Tony’s
I had not read Steve Barth’s blog in a while and today, while trying to catch up a bit, I saw this post on knowledge management: Letter to a young client Knowledge management builds collective capacity by increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of every individual manager and employee. Consider anthropology before technology, especially when it comes to tools and processes. Remember that people act on what they believe, rather than what they know. So information and expertise need to be transmitted through trusted and compelling mechanisms.
Can we view knowledge sharing not as a proscribed set of practices, but instead a set of principles? While there are a range of tools and methods that we call “knowledge sharing,” they are just tools. And if we overly focus on them, we miss the point that knowledge sharing is embedded in everything we do. Last Friday I had the great fortune to help facilitate a session at IFAD on SRI, or System of Rice Intensification . My botany degree, while neglected as a career path, has always kept my root interest in plants and ecosystems
I interviewed him about the use of Yammer as an internal microblogging tool. At our department with 50 people there was a need for more knowledge and news to share. There are many meetings, meetings and seminars, but knowledge was not structurally shared. If you put something on Quagga, you can use Yammer to share it and visit Quagga. How have we implemented Godfried Knipscheer works as digital communications advisor to the Flemish government in Belgium and is project leader of a social media project. What have people learned in a conference
Last week I spent half a day in a workshop on local government knowledge management. We concluded that what councils need in order to share so-called “best practice” is not more consultancy, reports and databases, but video clips, conversations, and encouragement to tell bad stories as well a good. This focus on conversations is not new in the knowledge management field … what is different is see ng Boring waste of time? Absolutely not, because it gave me some breakthough thoughts on collaboration within and between organisations, and may well make a big
In working with knowledge sharing and learning initiatives within international non governmental organizations (NGOs), the author has observed a pattern where talented internal practitioners have struggled to spread innovations, engender learning required for successful work, and in general, been stopped from excelling. The connection with an external practitioner then allows a sharing of ideas, and the beginning of a peer coaching or support relationship. OK, I need your help. I
