Knowledge Workers...

Sunil notes Aug. 3, 2008:
So what exactly is the new excitement about this category? Is it any different from what Peter Drucker identified decades ago?

4. Knowledge Worker 2.0 by Stephen Collins

   Oh, and if you didn't have enough with that particular presentation, that I have just referenced in the previous weblog post, which Stephen Collins (From Acidlabs) put together a little while ago, here we go with another one he has just shared with the world and with which I have fallen in love from the moment I saw it. Kellypuffs has already gone ahead and referenced it as well over at her weblog, so I thought I would go ahead myself and share it over here as well with you folks.
   
   Why do I like it so much? Why did I fall in love with it since I first saw it? Well, most of the folks who know me in real life know that I have been involved with Knowledge Management since 1998. And the last five of those years I have been involved rather heavily with social computing, social networking and a whole range of different social software tools, as a new, refreshing, inspiring and contagious way to keep promoting knowledge sharing within different organisations; and get knowledge workers to collaborate closer with one another by learning what each of them has been doing so far and continue nurturing those different relationships.
   
   Thus all of what I have written in the different weblogs that I maintain, all of the different presentations that I have done at various events (Both internal and external), all of the different demos and education sessions I have done throughout the years on a good number of social software tools, all of the different conversations and connections that I have made with other knowledge workers while evangelising around the subject of social computing can just be summarised with this single presentation. As simple as that!

   Washington — Big surprise: a lot of smarty-pants computer types have been snickering at John McCain lately....
   
   The self-described “Neanderthal” of the Grand Old Party (emphasis, old) has been catching flack for admitting that he is no techno-geek.

6. Peter Drucker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

   Peter Ferdinand Drucker (November 19, 1909–November 11, 2005) was a writer, management consultant, and self-described “social ecologist.”[1] Widely considered to be the father of “modern management,” his 39 books and countless scholarly and popular articles explored how humans are organized across all sectors of society—in business, government and the nonprofit world.[2] His writings have predicted many of the major developments of the late twentieth century, including privatization and decentralization; the rise of Japan to economic world power; the decisive importance of marketing; and the emergence of the information society with its necessity of lifelong learning.[3] In 1959, Drucker coined the term “knowledge worker.”[4]

7. Beyond Social Networking: Knowledge-Networking Tool TrueThinker 2.0 Launches - MarketWatch

   BUFFALO, N.Y., Nov 12, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- The shortcomings of social networking sites-inappropriate ads, spam, invasion of privacy-have become all too obvious. Online tool TrueThinker, available today in redesigned version 2.0, moves beyond social networking. Instead, it offers people or companies a powerful, artificial intelligence-based tool for "knowledge networking". "Why network just to network?" asked William Dale Koehler, president, CEO and co-founder of As It Is, Inc., the company that created TrueThinker. "TrueThinker is a complete system for sharing, organizing and actually growing knowledge, which is then available for you and others to use. Think of it as your global mindtrust."

When you make TrueThinker your home page, joinTrueThinker Communities and build your personal KnowledgeBank, you'll start to see the power of having a mindtrust of your own.
