The Scottish Knowledge Management Network collaboration space was set up to provide a means for people based in Scotland (particularly in the public sector) who want to share learning, expertise and work together to enable all of our organisations to get better at collaborative working; capturing and sharing expertise and knowledge; and encouraging learning and innovation. This is a learning environment, based on openness, discretion, trust, respect & a willingness to both contribute and share, and encourage others to participate.
Video: Gurteen Knowledge Cafe, NAB, Melbourne, October 2010
This is a short video of a Gurteen Knowledge Cafe that I facilitated for Peter Houlihan at the National Australia Bank in Melbourne in October 2010.
The session was captured on a flip cam without the use of a roving mic, so the sound is not clear and has had some extensive editing to fit into a short learning piece, but it gives a good idea of what the Cafe is all about.
The question posed to the group as the "conversational seed" was "What if true leadership involves embracing complexity by widening the circle of involvement rather than restricting it?
If you are interested in Knowledge Management, the
Knowledge Café
