Hello,
I recently had a terrific conversation with Josee Duquette in Quebec about the work she does in knowledge transfer & mobilization. I asked her to write a brief summary describing her work and she provided me with a draft that is going through approval with her managers right now.
The idea to host a series of blog entries on Knowledge Broker experience has emerged. I am looking for people willing to to write something brief about their work that we can share on the Knowledge Mobilization Works website and the Knowledge Mobilization Works blog – with links to your own website and organization.
The format is quite open – as you know, I am willing to be creative. My suggestion is about 400-800 words, conversational and personal with link to examples, written for an audience of practitioners and managers.
So far both David Phipps and David Yetman have agreed to write something. I am open with deadlines and would like feature about 0ne a week for the next six month+.
Let me know. If you have other suggestions of people who might be interested, I appreciate your input.
All my best,
Peter
ps: I am feeling mostly better. Flu knocked me out for 3 days and am working at about 70% now. Love my body but it is temperamental as I put more miles on it. Does this mean I am now a classic human – not quite antique but not the latest.
