Graphic Recording 101 in Kuala LumpurNovember 27 2007

Anyone in Kuala Lumpur going to GK3 interested in graphic recording and facilitation - join us! This is a free introductory workshop on December 10th!

Graphic Recording 101: A learning opportunity you might not want to miss!

Are you the kind of person who loves working with groups, who is interested in finding new ways to apply your listening and recording skills, and who learns best from doing and reflecting? Are you intrigued about the role of visuals in our group interactions and learning?

If so, you are invited to join a small group of like-minded people to develop your own practice in graphic recording (you can see some examples here.) Graphic recording (also called graphic facilitation) at its most basic is capturing what is happening in a group or presentation. (To learn more, see http://www.visualpractitioner.org/education/whatis1.htm)

To coincide with GK3, on Monday December 10th, from 2pm - 5pm at the Crowne Plaza in Kuala Lumpur, a graphic recording workshop will be hosted by Nanc

Community Indicator: CondolencesNovember 23 2007

Susanne Nyrop points to a community indicator, a blog that allows a distributed community of practice to share their condolences with a member whose father died.

A community blogging for memorial:

"Dafne is one of the most renowned webheads leaders and course innovators, and always ready to share and help others with her insight and knowledge. From the mail list which I'm not regularly following these days, I just found out that Dafne's old and fragile father passed away some weeks ago.

Spontaneously, one of the community members, Dennis, had started a blog for her to send our personal comments for condolency. My comment was no. 47 - so this blog has reached out to many people's hearts. And hopefully comforting Daf and her family. Such gestures seem to happen naturally in the online CoP.

The Future of KM?November 23 2007

In December I'm going to GK3, the Global Knowledge conference in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I'll be involved in three things and I'd like to ask your help with at least one of them.

On Tuesday I'll be on a panel The Future of Knowledge Management and Web 2.0 - Visions and Challenges. Here is the session description:

The importance of knowledge in transitioning to a knowledge society and knowledge economy continues to increase. With Web 2.0 getting great current attention and emerging discussions on enterprise 2.0, KM 2.0 (Knowledge Management 2.0) etc., promises are aplenty for knowledge to be spread instantly, interactively and across hierarchies. The proliferation of tools, instruments and channels for knowledge sharing present the possibility of tapping into collective intelligence, the 'wisdom of the crowd'. Do technological progress and economic importance of knowledge sharing also positively impact on the human and cultural obstacles to knowledge sharing? Wise use of Web 2.0 can produce great economic and social benefits, but it could also hamper development be

Conversation as a Radical ActNovember 19 2007

The days have flown by since Juanita Brown, Nancy Margulies, Amy Lenzo and I engaged a room of over 250 people at the Systems Thinking in Action conference around Conversation as a Radical Act. This was a loving manifestation of the work and thinking of Juanita and her extended community, building on the things they have discovered through The World Cafe. This is world AS cafe. And the power we have to bring light into the world.

The session was an opening on the idea of conversation as a radical act - with radical meaning "from the root." Amy did a wonderful job capturing and harvesting the pearls of the session, and we have continued to harvest on a wiki where we have videos (more to come), photos, the collective manifesta
