JUNE 25, 2012

This blog post includes some reflections on the instructional design, delivery, and insights that I hope will inform the field building discussion taking place over at the Packard OE Program site. 4. After we create a shared network based on individual’s knowledge and skills, we move to the organizational network maps.

On Twitter, Kami Huyse pointed over to her reflections on this paper which lead me again to the paper itself. This voice, articulated through social media, can be extremely powerful and can force individuals, companies and communities to change the way they behave.

Alf Gracombe (a relatively new in the nptech blogosphere and whose blog looks promising) suggests that the debate reflects the shifting paradigm away from the more traditional content taxonomies to the emerging folksonomies on today???s social network and community sites. He observes that folksonomies are in the early stages of development.

I'm focusing on the community response to the prospect of the millage and the way the public debate reflects broader conversations about the public value of the arts. But the arguments trotted out represent how far we have to go in articulating the public value of arts institutions (and helping our supporters speak the same language).

The intent was to provide a deep dive for program officers to reflect on the way they currently work, identify what needs to change to create more impact, and come up with some prototypes. Afterwards, I facilitated a reflective conversation about the various ideas – what were the patterns? What is actionable?

The key to success in social media is to leave room for reflection at the end of a project. Reflection gives you a chance to understand what worked and what didn't. The exercise is intended to help you slow down, be in the moment, and shift you into a reflective mindset or at least feel what it is like. It blew me away.

Expectations are critical for healthy relationships and so being able to be clear on those two things as a manager will also give your team members freedom and agency to be able to create boundaries and to be able to articulate expectations they might have because that’s the relationship aspect around time management.

The first is our International Strategy Meetings, where we convene our founding women from 26 different countries, who come together and really examine what the local issues are, what are the global trends, what is the work that they can do in partnership, and they really map out their plan and their goals and their work for the coming year.

As part of the session, Tom led live drawing ( click for high-res image ), and we invited the audience to add their own “can’t dos” to a large map of things that are “safe,” “iffy,” and “no way”--more on that later. Our desire to "protect kids"--which reflects twenty years of clamping down (at least in the U.S.) The audio starts noisy.

Thanks to custom development and integration with Salesforce , the site instantly reflects every gift ICA receives! Every nonprofit site should include the organization’s mission statement somewhere, and Mustard Seed’s Mission and Vision page does a great job of articulating their purpose using short paragraphs and to-the-point language.

How do you measure and articulate the value of museums and libraries? How do you measure and articulate the value of museums and libraries? I’d love to see someone fully imagine an institution that would be that third place, and then see how we could adjust museums and libraries to reflect those (or not). Who owns the stuff?
