A few more ideas....
Below are a few additional ideas that I'd like to share with you from several other sessions attended during the conference:
- Skills we all must possess to remain viable: life-long learners, risk-takers, and early adopters. Make sure to sign up for SLA 23 Things, a 9-week initiative to help members become more familiar with Web 2.0 tools.
- Trust, respect, and role modeling are essential elements to encourage collaboration and facilitate knowledge sharing.
- Narratives and stories help people to articulate more complex ideas, share knowledge.
- Action after reviews is a KM tool that allows individuals to learn from what happened, why it happened, what went well, what needs improvement and what lessons can be learned from their experience.
Share yourself and your favorite resources
We have numerous ways for you to share your ideas and key takeaways from the conference:
- Check out our SLA KM's Facebook Group. We've uploaded photos from the conference.
- Bookmark websites of interest by tagging items SLAKM on Del.icio.us.
- Add comments to our blog posts OR start your own post to share your conference learnings.
Visualize our tweets
During many of the sessions, a handful of SLAers shared ideas with conference attendees using an area Daniel Lee (thank you, Daniel!) set up for us on Twitter. (We have been thinking about setting up something similar for our KM members. We'll keep you posted.) To view the posts visually, see the tag cloud below saved on Many Eyes: SLA Knowledge Management topic hub OR view Daniel's Twitter cloud on his blog.
