test of Google plus

will this work now? +John Burgoyne   seems ok

I had to update my profile in Blogger. Anyway Google knows all about me and I am ready for the conversations around the MOOC.

Cloudworks and the MOOC, Google+

I have joined Cloudworks to get a better idea of what is going on. I noticed a lot about Futurelearn just before the holidays. There is a course about how to design a MOOC which my colleague Will Pollard has signed up for. A massively open online course. In Twinity we have chat facilities and also ways to show off video. Not sure how this fits with design but I hope to find out more.

There are several clouds on virtual worlds. Some are quite dated I think but this reflects how interest stops and starts.

The course on Moocs is making use of some Google resources so I am trying out the Google + links on this blog. Not working so far so I will have to set this up better. Please let me know if you already understand this sort of thing.

New 2D attempt to move Work Foundation sculpture closer to CQI

I notice Will Pollard has posted a couple of times about 2D collage as a way to representr the potential of virtual worlds.


http://will789gb.posterous.com/creative-commons-attribution-on-previous-post

http://will789gb.posterous.com/two-photos-shifting-the-work-foundation-throu

This is quite interesting and of course I hope that people from the CQI will contribute to and benefit from #mtw3 .

But living in a virtual world is quite normal and I am surprised there is not more of it. Moving objects to a new place is not that difficult and the facilities for social media are often fairly easy to use.

Reminder of conference streams diagram

I think it is worth making a new link to this post from about a year that shows the conference streams as a triangle

Quality management might be close to Practice and this seems to be where much of the interest on LinkedIn is centred. Not just on our own group but on others that we link to. But the conference is intended to include the Speculative and Emancipatory streams also.

Diagram on quality and a learning loop

I have been asked by Will Pollard to post this diagram.

This blog is a useful place for diagrams and they are not so obvious in LinkedIn. It comes from a mailing list linked to MoSO, a Deming group based at the CQI. Apparently there is more material that could be available if there was some interest. This one is by Tony Brown and clearly shows Learning within a Deming quality loop.

I am happy to post any other versions in this blog. There are several ways of describing quality management and learning.

This weekend there is a meeting in Brussels about Buddhist Business. The blog has several links to useful content and there may be more after the event



/
In a short introductory interview, Joel Magnuson talks about his forthcoming book: The Approaching Great Transformation: Creating a New Commonwealth for the End of the Oil Age (Seven Stories Press, 2013).

I think this relates to the talk by John Burgoyne about avoiding the traffic jam scenario in China and other places.

Twinity beach as a sculpture gallery

I hope there may be some changes in attitude towards virtual worlds. My colleague Will Pollard often claims that the time is still not right, that UK broadband is not Twinity ready or some other reason based on normal opinions.

But I notice he has tried out placing sculpture on a beach. I know that Web Kirby has been suggesting Twinity as a base for a gallery. Now there is 3D printing it should be possible to move models in various ways.

Follow this link to Will's blog.

If this works ok then a conference in Twinity could be next.

LCC Futures Conference this week #LCCFutures

Later this week there is a three day look at Future trends based at the London college of Communication.

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/lcc-futures

Live streams from here and also archive I think. there are a couple of tests already. You can add comments.

www.lcc-futures.chrislinford.co.uk 

The main site with schedule and info on speakers.

On LinkedIn there are now two topics on the group for Cross Media Live

http://www.linkedin.com/groups/LCC-Futures-Digital-Media-Games-4028414.S.172357264?qid=8b1d2e2a-f9d0-46a3-acd0-ceefe2d21e1b&trk=group_most_popular-0-b-ttl&goback=%2Egmp_4028414

Not sure if these links work. Search for Cross Media Live and hope is LCC will be near the top. Cross Media is about the same issues and reasons why LC Communication is no longer LC Printing.

Good to see more attention for video. Virtual worlds could be next.

The new shorter Keynote clips on YouTube #mtw3

Here are the new shorter clipsfrom the talk by John Burgoyne at MAMLLnet. This forms the keynote for #mtw3. The full clips are still available on YouTube, and the earlier versions. Please use the tags #Design and #Ethics with #mtw3 when posting a comment somewhere else. The blank space at the end is to add links. You can add directly to the Soundcloud versions in previous post.

Burgoyne Keynote now starts with shorter clips #mtw3

This week there is another update on the Management Theory at Work content. It seems to have a basis in design science for organisation and teaching. The conclusion at the Work Foundation could well be around academic publishing though sound is another example. The mergers of publishers could follow a pattern seen with record labels.

Will Pollard has loaded to Soundcloud a couple of clips from John Burgoyne's talk at #MAMLLnet which is also a keynote for #mtw3. There has been feedback that the full video on YouTube is too long. Both these sound clips are under five minutes. Personally I think that five hours of video is not too much to suggest as the equivalent of a day event. Then again I notice that the Work Foundation often arranges events for a couple of hours starting with breakfast. Maybe everything has to be quicker.


Direct links

http://soundcloud.com/will789gb/john-burgoyne-on-state-of

Soundcloud has a feature that comments can be added at precise moments in the talk. Please give this a try. I think there will also be a version on YouTube later but commenting here seems less well known.

YouTube homework ahead of next week #mtw3

Next week there is another fairly intensive phase for #mtw3 . Monday mostly based on Facebook, Tuesday Cloudworks and Wednesday on LinkedIn. My colleague Will Pollard will be on the Wild Show on Thursday morning and they may include some management theory between the music tracks.

The videos work best through Facebook but here is now about 5 hours. So this could take up most of a day. Please have a look during this week.


The new one is from Frances Pinter a couple of years ago but I notice it may be updated during Online Information.

http://www.online-information.co.uk/static/track-1-new-business-models

Knowledge Unlatched is based at the Work Foundation. Previously extracts from a podcast were played on the Wild Show. The issues around academic publishing are a useful focus for discussions about innovation. So please have a look at this one, only 25 minutes.

Science 2 is an hour and a half. Not sure how to break this up, please post a video comment or something if you have some ideas.

Update on October event, Google doc now public

Apologies for the small size of the box on the previous post. You might think that Blogger and Google were well integrated but I can't find how to change the code I copied. So I have changed the Google Doc settings to be public and you can find the doc HERE.

By the way, Google has also changed my name to George Fox as I appear on the comment history. Not sure why.

Just in case, here is the text-

Management Theory at Work Three
Probable shape for #mtw3 28th-30th Oct 2012
This event is online but there will be face to face later at the Work Foundation

28th

John Burgoyne  videos or restatement

End of Leadership
State of Salvation

concentrate on YouTube and Facebook

continues as #Design and #Ethics

29th

more on #design and learning

Concentrate on Cloudworks as site and case study

30th

close with Work Foundation response to "End of Leadership" and publishing as cases
( can relate back to any form of publishing previously mentioned)  www.knowledgeunlatched.org
#Publish
May continue connected to Futures Conference at London College of Communication Nov 7-9

concentrate on LinkedIn (assumed used by Work Foundation audience)

LinkedIn #mtw3 has topics for #Design #Ethics #Publish, also #Virtual see below


------------

The virtual aspect is in background for the f2f . So far there has been little interest in Twinity. It can continue online but is not essential for the agenda above. There may be a link with academic publishing or promotion. Continues on Wild Show, Phonic FM Nov 1st
#virtual

search on “#mtw3”                           mtw3.blogspot.com

Another online occasion at end of October #mtw3

There will be another online version of #mtw3 on October 28th, 29th and 30th. There is a Google doc below. Last time seemed to work quite well with mostly YouTube on day one and LinkedIn on day two. I am hoping that there will be more about virtual worlds on day three as well as academic publishing. But even if few people visit me in Twinity I can join in with LinkedIn as well. Please let me know if you would like an invite to edit the Google doc. It could spread to two pages with more links. I am thinking about linking to other events when they fit in. There is an increasing number of clips on YouTube, some over an hour. So I hope people will watch these during October. I will post links during October. The previous online occasion was ahead of Cross Media Live. This one is ahead of the Futures Conference at the London College of Communication. This will probably include cross media issues. So there is a technology context for the management theory.

New docs on Scribd - agenda from last week and A4 sheets

Scribd is now working ok for uploads so there are two new ones


Management Theory at Work Three 22-24/8/12 Design Envelope Sheets - Gibson Burrell model

Chat about Design Science on Wild Show now on YouTube

There was a problem with the first version of part one, but both should now be working. The Wild Show is on Phonic FM in Exeter. There is not really much here yet about Design Science but there is the possibility of more later as mp3s and YouTube links are identified.

The videos are not yet indexed so I cannot add them to this blog. They are on the Posterous blog for will789gb. Please follow this LINK

LinkedIn topic on new topics for future #mtw3

On the LinkedIn site there is a chance to define issues for future discussion. Copied here for info-

This discussion is to identify three or four new topics that will continue #mtw3.

Starts with note from John Burgoyne.
End of Leadership and a State of Salvation
Followed by three main inter-related strands:
1.) More scientific leadership (as well as human relations)
2.) More ethical etc. leadership
3.) Virtual leadership
so these three could be rephrased as new discussions.

Also John Burgoyne has claimed that new web companies such as Google and Apple do not consult with Business Schools. Is this true? Do they consult with anyone? Do they use formal quality systems? How to define them anyway?

Comment
Linda Shelton • Quote from John notes - "Why are the new organisations, google, eBay, facebook etc. largely or entirely absent from Business School client lists (need to check if this is true, think it is)."
Scientific Leadership could relate to quality ideas but not much recent about this. Design Science still not widely understood though Wild Show radio a start ( clips on YouTube maybe later today ) ethics see Bronwen Rees on Cloudworks http://cloudworks.ac.uk/cloud/view/4826 I think virtual leadership may relate to academic publishing, they will try anything for promotion

Stills from Twinity

These stills show my recent locations, at home in Morecambe living over Lubins, and in the Telecafe Berlin. Berlin is ok until they build the virtual version of the Work Foundation. I hear that the upstairs cafe area is much the same.

The comment about design is from a conference about Protection Science organised by the IAS in Lancaster a while ago.

Checkland added to YouTube playlist

The talk by Peter Checkland has been added to the playlist. See previous post or search YouTube on Management Theory at Work Three.

The production is by Lancaster University TV. There could be more of this sort of thing.

Systems is another way to think about design.

YouTube Playlist #mtw3

This Playlist includes several clips from other sources. There are two versions of John Burgoyne's talk so it depends if you want a good view of the slides.

Mostly it is about design.

I think there could be more linking conversations from Twinity. Stills are all very well but the future is video.

Twinity Telecafe as a set for the Work Foundation

My colleague Will Pollard recently visited the Telecafe and I agree with him that this is very similar to the upper floor of the Work Foundation where there is a cafe and extended meeting room. I will visit myself sometime soon. Please add a comment if you know when you might be there or if you know of other good spots to be.

Agenda for #mtw3 22-24 Aug

The code worked ok but the document is too small so here it is again-

22nd 23rd  24th August #mtw3 Online
Test Management Theory at Work Three

22nd  Concentrates on YouTube and Facebook

Keynote from John Burgoyne-

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCboBk-lYp0    follow links to part two

End of Leadership and a State of Salvation
Followed by three main inter-related strands:
1.) More scientific leadership (as well as human relations)
2.) More ethical etc. leadership
3.) Virtual leadership
Explore YouTube through Facebook for more clips, including Design Science and Teaching as a Design Science. Many themes from Diana Laurillard recent book are also in talks as video. Scientific leadership could relate to quality ideas. There is also a talk by Gibson Burrell on a 3D model of factors in design.

23rd Concentrates on Cloudworks

Cloudworks is a case study in organisation and online learning as well as a store of content.
There is already a cloud for #mtw3 http://cloudworks.ac.uk/cloud/view/6043

“The Methods and Development of Crucible Research” follows a paper at the second conference. http://www.bronwenrees.co.uk/articles
This relates to ethical leadership.

In the morning there will be a radio show on Phonic FM including talk about a “design science DJ”. (like the rest of the project this is a test and may have several attempts till a recording is worth keeping)

24th Summary on LinkedIn

A look at the Work Foundation and innovation. Will there be any change in the approach to leadership? Knowledge Unlatched is a project for academic publishing that will connect with the strand on virtual leadership. Several changes have been noticed. The Grove Journal with an article by John Burgoyne was made available for free download through Scribd. Papers from the Networked Learning Conference are published online by Lancaster University, not as hard copy as previously. Similar cases may be noted at Cross Media in September.

Testing code for #mtw3 agenda

Scribd not working at the moment so trying out Acrobat.com

22nd -24th August update re Design!?

While checking the links in the previous post I had a better look at the Critical Management site. They have now uploaded a video to YouTube with a keynote from Design!?

The slides are here. Powerpoint.You may need them as well to watch the video. This is very welcome that critique ideas are so available. With all the talk about design and design science it is useful to have a three dimensional diagram in mind. I think this video should be watched on day two alongside the Cloudworks discussion. Cloudworks is a form of design.

The CMS YouTube channel is here. I wonder if they have considered a Creative Commons licence so the Remix button would show up? Somebody might edit in the slides so it was easier to follow. Still, a single camera for forty minutes is an advance on a journal article protected by  a password.

22 - 24th August #mtw3 revision ahead of #crossmedia12

The summer seems to be drifting along but towards the end of August will be a good time for another look at #mtw3. There may still be a "face-to-face" at the Work Foundation later this year but I think there is a role for an online aspect concentrated in time. My colleague Will Pollard will be attending Cross Media Live in Islington early in September. This will include a look at digital media as well as print. #mtw3 could assist with theory for coping with disruption in organisations as well as preparing for new information on available technology.

Conferences online are not limited for the number of streams or the timing for any conversation. So far #mtw3 has covered various sites and often gone off into other groups on LinkedIn and Facebook. I think we should show all the links available. This blog will be updated but I find a Google search on #mtw3 works quite well. Topsy is also good for Twitter and other social media.

The dates of 22-24th August will be shown with a detailed list of topics for each day but things may not work out quite as intended. For the next week or so please make suggestions around the following outline.

22nd starts with YouTube and Facebook. It is harder to link to video on LinkedIn. Although there is an updated video for John Burgoyne the earlier version is still getting most views. The later one has actual video, not just the slides. So aim number one is to get this ahead of the  earlier one in YouTube views.

Out of this there could be discussion on "scientific leadership" and how to avoid traffic jams in China. On Facebook there is our own group ( search #mtw3 ) and also lots about virtual worlds and quality. This group on Bookfairs will find the others and relates to our themes ( see below).  There is also a group looking at educational policy guidelines from UNESCO.

On the 23rd we could look at Cloudworks both as an example of an e-learning project and for the clouds on
#mtw3, plan-do-check/study-act, and the Winterludes so far. PDC/SA may connect with "scientific leadership" and with design. Diana Laurillard recently wrote about teaching as design science. John Burgoyne has also written about leadership and design science but I am not sure if design science is widely understood.
The Winterludes are periods of time in mid winter when trade shows happen, usually including Online Information and BETT. This year starts with Cross Media Live and BETT Radio.

Of course there is a dark side to the clouds, just like everything else. The book "Cloud Time" has a lot of good points to make and somehow much of it turns up on Google Books. Although #mtw3 is promoted on the Critical Management site there have not yet been as many comments as may come later.

As the aim is to eventually arrive face-to-face at the Work Foundation, the third day will look at the Work Foundation website for views on leadership and innovation. Will John Burgoyne persuade anyone to think differently about leadership? The Big Innovation Centre has a project called Knowledge Unlatched that relates to academic publishing. Ahead of Cross Media Live this could be an occasion to look at social media in relation to print models. The focus will be on LinkedIn, search on "#mtw3".

Interest in Facebook diagram but #mtw3 scope continues on course

I notice that will789gb has posted about a diagram found on Facebook in a group discussing crowdsourced funding. This may be an active topic over the summer break but I would like to point out that the wider scope of #mtw3 continues. Just because virtual worlds remainj active at this time there is no need to lose sight of the face to face event that will happen eventually.

Please make sure to be my friend on LinkedIn to get the details when available.

Disruption and universities

I found this link through the Guardian Higher Education Network. I think they do an excellent job even just linking to somewhere else.

http://scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2012/06/21/strategic-dynamism-at-the-university-of-virginia-implications-for-scholarly-communication/?CMP=

Apparently the external forces are such that universities need to make decisions whatever they think about learning design.

I wonder if the Guardian could include a bit more in print about virtual worlds? It often seems that this only turns up in some extra pages from a sponsor. Could there be more in the main Education reports and comment?

Kolb recycled and in draft

On Will Pollard's Posterous blog there is a cut and paste from a version of a Kolb cycle intended to be easier to compare with a Deming cycle. The original was found through a Tweet and blog by Steve Wheeler.    (@timbuckteeth) .

John Burgoyne has commented on this and mentioned a new paper- EASTERN EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING: EASTERN PRINCIPLES FOR LEARNING WHOLENESS by MAI P. TRINH and
DAVID A. KOLB. I have found a draft version available online- 


http://learningfromexperience.com/media/2012/02/eastern-experiential-learning.pdf

Of course it will be worthwhile to find the Special Issue of the Journal of Career Planning and Adult Development. For one thing the diagrams will be in the right place. But this version is interesting and I am planning some time to read it. It follows on from John Burgoyne's talk, the second part with projections on Asian values and consumption.

Games, link to podcast with much theory

I am still waiting for ExitReality3D to explain what is the future of Twinity. Obviously I have a specific interest in this. There could be many extensions to the #mtw3 event.

Meanwhile here is  a link to a podcast with much context to ideas. Worth a listen if you have some time.

Future Human

http://www.futurehuman.co.uk/2012/06/the-future-human-podcast-14-gaming-normal/

Second Life and Virtual Action Learning

More on this topic later. For now I just want to pass on this photo of my colleague Sally Potter who is so far alone in visiting Second Life as well as meeting us in Twinity. She has visited Terra Incognita and plans to return.

There is a video from #mamllnet and I understand more will be available soon.

Scientific Leadership, more detail needed

My colleague Will Pollard has blogged about the recent talk by John Burgoyne. http://will789gb.posterous.com/scientific-leadership-still-looking-for-clues

 The blog links to video of the talk. This idea of "leadership science" is well worth looking at. I have also found a video of a talk by Peter Checkland. Lancaster University TV can do an excellent job. I normally live in the high definition world of Twinity but I realise this can be represented on video. Some of the lighting on YouTube is just a bit dodgy but anyway I am going off topic.

 

 There will be a face to face event in September. The more video people watch in advance the more time there will be for conversation.

New Slides to promote #mtw3 please tweet etc.

There is a new set of slides to explain this #mtw3 a bit better. #mtw3 slides Only four of them and not many words. It seems a bit obvious that research and management are in a loop. Critique is always part of this but there may need to be some persuasion if all the issues are to be public. My colleague Will Pollard has recently blogged about academic publishing, starting with a link on Critical Management. I think aspects of publishing will continue as a theme in #mtw3. The slides are a fairly simple version of what has already become diffuse. Please search on #mtw3 for more.

I am not George Fox, new website through Google

The good news is that there is a new central website for #mtw3. This will have links to this blog, the LinkedIn group and eventually Facebook. Actually a Google search on #mtw3 should find us but a website is still a useful centre. Of course I am very grateful to Google for hosting this site but the bad news is that thjey have mistaken my name for George Fox. My email indicates gfox because the George Fox building is near where I work. But my name is Linda Shelton. Not sure how this can be changed now but please just realise that posts from George Fox are actually from myself. Full url- https://sites.google.com/site/mtw3central

Updated outline of an actual day.

The previous post about the outline of a possible day in September still looks reasonable. There has been a bit more interest through the Critical Management site. So the stats tell me. On one of the hotseats for the Networked Learning Conference it was suggested that Analytics could be a nightmare or even fairy dust. But I find stats quite useful sometimes. The book on Cloud Time is now published and there are extracts on the Amazon Look Again. Something in this area would balance the technology claims that others are likely to make. The Cloud is still gaining I think but then I live in Twinity. My colleague Will Pollard has blogged about the LCC. I don't see why this could not be covered just because some situations are difficult. By the way Source Dubious tells me that the LCC building is only 12 stories high. The Ministry of Sound is planning for 30 stories in a rebuild. So the rumours about the LCC site could have a basis. Apparently the Elephant and Castle is a booming area. I'm not sure about everything that Source Dubious tells me but there must be something to this. Meanwhile I have noticed that there will be a couple of days to celebrate 30 years of the MA in Management Learning and Leadership at Lancaster. This will link to some social media and topics may include avatars so this is very interesting for me. I think the face-to-face event is free so suggest you have a look if you are near Lancaster at the end of May.

Source Dubious tells me about performance targets

I recently visited Source Dubious at his Fleet Street flat. I like to check his blue screen seat is still there and also he often has some information. We got talking about the quality meetings that seem to happen towards that end of London. He has heard that some people have raised doubts about the performance targets sometimes suggested by HR. It was all a bit of a puzzle as it seemed quite like what I sometimes hear about QA.

I do hope lots of people will join the discussion around Management Theory at Work, either as comments on this blog or the LinkedIn group or now on Facebook. Search for #mtw3 , this often works. The Facebook group has a couple of other photos so you could experiment with collage. I find that Twinity is not for everybody.

Draft outline of a day conference shape

I am still thinking about what the day might be like if there was a face to face version of the third Management Theory at Work. It is quite possible this would be at the Work Foundation in London as it is now closely aligned with Lancaster University. A high proportion of those attending would probably be already involved in the Work Foundation so the practitioner aspect could be even stronger than for the first two conferences. There could still be a significant thread for CMS and Organizational Learning. But I am not sure how the closing plenary will work out. There may need to be three of them or at least some options. Fortunately the Work Foundation has many rooms.

See the previous post for a YouTube version of what might happen. The opening keynote is definitely from John Burgoyne. Similar to what is on YouTube but he seems to welcome questions so it could vary. There will probably be something on Organisational Learning but I don't know how much time this will take. The Handbook of Organizational Learning and Knowledge Management Second Edition is just over 700 pages. I keep looking on YouTube for some sort of introduction.

There could be different streams for case studies, theory and critique. There is already an #mtw3 cloud on Cloudworks so Cloudworks itself could be a case study. The OU is studying Analytics as "dream, nightmare or fairydust" (search on these words to find it) so there could be something for each stream.

There are enough blog posts about the London College of Communication for another possible case study at another stage of technology. I am not sure how public this can be but there coulkd be informal discussion during the day.

There is a new book about the cloud - Cloud Time by Rob Coley and Dean Lockwood - that "maps capitalisms mobilization of cloud computing in its bid to archive and enclose the future". This could be part of a critique stream. Interest in the cloud continues.

There should be space for several papers, including work in progress for PhD s . I notice that when John Burgoyne is invited to speak there are usually other topics that seem to follow on from the first two events. Some links so you can have a look.

Lancaster Senior Learners Forum

University Campus Suffolk, School of Business, Enterprise and Leadership
Past Lectures

Management Theory at Work Two - programme from 2003

Management Theory at Work 1


The Grove Volume 1 Number 1 2012 International Journal of Experience and Reflection

So I think I will look for connections over the next few weeks. The way to end the day is still a bit of a blank.

My visit to a Quality training site

I recently went to a training centre near London Bridge used by the CQI for a meeting on Deming Secrets. I think it is possible they would be interested in Management Theory at Work, details in the rest of this blog.

I notice Will Pollard has linked to a recent Peter Senge video in his learn9 blog. There are various opinions on Peter Senge but he was definitely mentioned during the first two conferences. The people looking at Deming Secrets may have more to say about this. The learn9 blog is set up for SceneChat so commenting on the video is possible.

YouTube version of face to face event

There is a growing number of clips on YouTube. This post is an attempt to find a sequence that could get close to a face to face in terms of being comprehensive over a structure. It can start with a keynote from John Burgoyne as if we are at the Work Foundation. There is at least one YouTube clip on Dynamic Capabilities and Critical Management Studies, both of which would come up during a day. The concluding phase may be based on someone from the Work Foundation summing up on if any views have changed. So this sequence includes one from their YouTube channel.











More suggestions welcome. Please add comments with links to explore in future posts.

Twinity maps really a problem, how to link CQI and Work Foundation? #mtw3

I notice the blog update from will789 on Posterous. He is trying to widen the link between Deming idea and Network Learning.

http://will789gb.posterous.com/linking-deming-sustainability-network-learnin

This could be a lot easier if the maps came back to Twinity. I know the London space got close to the CQI, at least as far as Cursitor Street. The walk towards the Work Foundations was covered pretty well. Conversation along the route could have been interesting.

Is it the Ordnance Survey who need a budget consideration for the full resource to be restored? They must know something about London. I think that more real maps would be bought if there were more people who knew about Twinity. Maybe this could be a topic for #mtw3?

YouTube extend Burgoyne lecture from Suffolk Campus, more on social media

This #mtw3 event is gaining a bit of momentum. John Burgoyne spoke in Suffolk last month and the talk is on YouTube as sound and slides. So far it is not public but you can find the links on the Suffolk webpage. Keep scrolling to the bottom.

I have been sent the slides and a note so have loaded these to Scribd. Please click HERE I added a note promoting this blog which I think I should have done with the Grove Journal. So far we have the John Burgoyne opening keynote as a journal article and a YouTube clip, well over an hour with questions. And it seems the rest of the shape of the event comes from the company this is found in.

For example I am interested in the John Peters lecture about trust. This has led me to GSE Research and a LinkedIn group discussion on journals. So far the Grove Journal is free to download from Scribd but what is the business model going forward? As an avatar I worry about these things. Twinity has stopped all the spaces between dwellings as part of an austerity measure, something about the costs of renting map information. Life is still possible, but this is not a viable future.

LinkedIn has suggested I join the group for the British Academy of Management. I find they are discussing social media. Click HERE for link. So this is encouraging for the online phase of this event. September is a long way off for a face-to-face. Much could happen sooner.

Screenshot shows #mtw3 is working as a search tag on Google #mtw3

The social media phase of the third Management Theory at Work event is reaching a new stage. A Google search earlier today found the first few results were all to do with #mtw3 or Management Theory at Work 3.

Flickr code should work




if not, the description is-

Google search results on #mtw3 7th Feb Dickens graphic, Links to Grove, Suffolk, CMS and dynamic capability, Scribd and YouTube.

So links to LinkedIn group and Scribd are ok. Scribd also has the timetable from the first two face-to-facers.

Timetable for Second Conference Now on Scribd

Management Theory at Work Two - programme from 2003

Grove Journal now on Scribd with "Beyond Leadership"

By permission the PDF of the first Grove Journal has been posted on Scribd so can be read online. John Burgoyne's article can be seen as  a basis for a keynote at a conference. The other articles consider online learning and environmental resiliance. Articles will be considered for the next publication so some may come from the discussions around #mtw3.
