Know IT & Share IT: Organisational Knowledge Management in the age of Social Networking December 4, 2007

Social Networking is a hot topic on the Consumer Web thanks to sites such as LinkedIn, Facebook and MySpace. But what role do social networks play inside organisations?

What is Social Network Analysis (SNA) and how can organisations make use of it? What are Knowledge Networks, Communities of Interest and Communities of Practice and what must be considered when creating them?

What tools and technologies exist to support organisations in the creation and growth of such networks?

Does the creation of social networks lead to more ‘Collaboration’ and less ‘Knowledge Management’?

Come to this event for the answers to these questions and more.
