KM World 2009 Program Available

I received my paper copy of the KM World 2009 program recently. You can see the agenda online at the KM World 2009 site. It looks great with people like Andrew McAfee, Christine LI, David Snowden. Nancy Dixon, Thomas Vander Wal, and Leslie Owens.

The KM World people were kind to allow me to offer you a $200 discount on each of your full-conference passes. They can also sign up for a free expo pass. Go to this KM World registration form.

I also want to bring to your attention to my workshop, Business Social Media Best practices: Blogs & Twitter. It is offered Monday, November 16 form 9AM to 12PM. Here is the workshop description:

Blogs were one of the initial social media and their influence continues to grow. They were the first social media to make it into Gartner’s “slope of enlightenment.” Gartner also recently wrote, “Enterprises must define clear strategic objectives for blogging, and support them with policies to encourage executives and employees to maintain regular entries and to identify and discourage harmful blogging practices… Increasingly, any public-facing media company or enterprise must have a blogging strategy.” This interactive workshop will help you develop and refine your business blogging strategy. It covers blogging best practices in 2009 and how to complement your blogging efforts with the new emerging social media such as Twitter. New customer communication options opened up Twitter are also explored.

I hope to see you at the conference, and even better, at the workshop. :)

Hey Bill, thanks for sharing this information. I m looking forward to seeing you at your workshop. But I have a small question, as an important knowledge management tool, you are not gonna talk about Wiki?

[bill Ives]

Thanks for your interest. We can talk about wikis if the group wants to but the main focus will be on blogs and twitter on the Web. Bill

As he notes here, Bill is focusing on external cases. I am leading a session that is just the opposite, an internally focused E2.0 Reality panel with end-users from Alcoa and Avery Dennison.
