On the Complexity Front
Things are starting to happen in KM and complexity, and I’m starting to get my juices up to apply some of the Cynefin methods (now that I passed the certification! yeah!).
…Ross Wirth has started an organizational complexity group at Yahoo!
…David Gurteen, who is a master of managing and creating knowledge about knowledge management has created a new page on his extensive web site devoted to complexity, and he has announced a conference in London coming up in a few weeks, the Third Gurteen Knowledge Conferfence, on Managing Organizational Complexity.
Meanwhile, I had to pass on speaking at the upcoming 7th Annual Virtual Communities conference at the Hague. There will be a good line-up there, including a paper co-authored by my Gennova buddy Jenny Ambrozek and Joe Cothrel. Both were pioneers in setting up and managing virtual communities. I hate to miss all this, but family and the beach beckon.
