A nice post at Anecdote outling some simple rules for knowledge management which could make for a nice way to think about organizing harvesting efforts in large scale processes: A simple tip last night from the actKM discussion list contributed by Ivan Webb who provides a ‘strategic job description’” ”that will change the culture of most organisations and leads naturally to knowledge management being embedded in the organisation’s activity.

Back in the fall I published The Tao of Holding Space (.pdf), a small ebook I had been working on for a number of years. It seemed to get the attention of Lyn Hartley from Fieldnotes, the online journal of the Shambhala Institute. She ran a little interview with me, and this month it appeared in the most recent issue.

It is the first big opening in the coast that you reach coming north from San Franciso Bay, and it seems to head roughly the right way. It didn’t take long for Europeans to discover that it is …

\ Victoria, BC Sitting at a window seat at Moka House in the funkyhip Cook Street village district of Victoria. In a tourist town, little neighbourhoods like this are the ones that keep locals sane. I’m here partly because it appears that I am turning into more and more of a local around here. We did a good day of work today with the VIATT crew, cracking some solid communications questions and planning our Art of Hosting training for later next month. We are getting deep into a process of community linkage that will expand and solidify …
