Conference Redux

October 25, 2009 · Leave a Comment

From the lack of posts here, it may seem that I’ve been slack. In fact I’ve been busy with paid work and the public outings that I have done haven’t necessarily involved presentations & notes. I thought I’d just note what these were:

NSW KM Forum: Thank You For Your Feedback

May 4, 2009 · 1 Comment

This was a short presentation that I gave as part of the NSW KM Forum Future of Conferences event (background & presentations). I was talking about feedback.

The 3 questions that I asked everyone at the start were:

  • Who here likes getting positive feedback?
  • Who here likes getting negative feedback?
  • Who here thinks that feedback is important?

Then I talked a little about the rationale behind the Rate My Speaker experiment. And then I talked a little bit about Twitter, with specific reference to this experiment by Andrew McAfee.

My final three suggestions were:

  • We have to get better at giving feedback.
  • We have to get better at receiving it.
  • Feedback is not an end in itself but a platform for co-creation.
