Harold Jarche » A case for social learning in business - 0 views

  •  
    Excellent video on how businesses need to redesign their systems to support listening, learning, sharing--more people you know, the more things you can do--"next practices" drawn from Jarche's blog

    Very interesting yet short video on social learning as it relates to business but at first glance, they seem to apply to nonprofits/educational groups, too.

  • Something I am trying to get a handle on in my dissertation has to do with communication (and communication formats) that are imposed on a group/team and those in which groups or teams are able to develop their own forms and forms of communication. What I found is that a team might have “hidden” communication, withholding from some, developing different spaces and different &nbsp;levels of access to various members, depending on the task.

  •  
    An earlier blog by Harold Jarche referring to Lillie Efimova's work. Note how structure/goal oriented moves over to informal/opportunity-driven network with personal drivers taking over. Perhaps most MCNC groups reside in the opportunity-driven, informal networking place--not so much coordination but cooperation keeps them together, weakly? Has an impact also on facilitator's role.

Tom Wujec: Build a tower, build a team - 0 views

  •  
    Presented on TED.COM, filmed Feb 2010 and posted April 2010. Wujec discusses his experience using the Marshmallow Challenge in team-building exercises. Observing the challenge 100s of times, he sees that kindergarteners do better than recent business school grads (better at prototyping, less jockeying for leadership), CEOs do well, but do even better with an executive admin on their team because facilitation is important. High stakes (he's offered a cash reward) works better once the team has acquired skills; high stakes with no skills is a disaster.

Your School's Secret Change Agents - 0 views

  •  
    Posted by Robert Jacobs in Education Innovation (blog) on September 2, 2010. The model for school change that Jacobs outlines looks very similar to the GSCC project, in that both look at what's working and how it might be replicated, focusing on the positive (solution) rather than the more negative (problem). NOTE: The Harvard Business Review article that Jacobs refers to was published in 2005.
