While David Gurteen is in Australia for the actKM Conference  in October 2007, he will be running an open Knowledge Cafe in Sydney on the evening of 25th October.

The knowledge cafe is being hosted by AMP who are delighted to host the Knowledge Cafe on the 25th Floor of their building - offering not only hospitality, friendship and sharing but also arguably the best views in Sydney (see the map below). The cafe is open to members of the Gurteen Knowledge Community; other KM networks and anyone else who is interested in participating.
If you would like to attend this event could you please register here. Although the event is free, your name is needed for security purposes. Click the button and complete the pop-up form.

I am sorry - registration has been closed as over 100 people have signed up for this Knowledge Cafe and we are out of space!
Date: Thursday 25th October 2007 5:00pm - 7:30pm. Please arrive at 5:00pm or shortly after which will give you time to settle in and meet other people. Drinks and light refreshments will be available. The cafe itself will start at 5:30pm. It will end about 7:30pm and for those of you interested and would like to talk longer we will go on for dinner.

Theme: What will be the impact of Social Tools within Organizations?
Social tools put a great deal of power in the hands of the individual. They alter the traditional flow of information and have the potential to alter the culture and effectiveness of an organization. What will be their impact and what are the opportunities and challenges that organizations face in making them available to people?

The Gurteen Knowledge Cafe
David Gurteen will start the evening by explaining the history of the cafes; their purpose; their benefits and the process by which they are run.

He will then move on to run a knowledge cafe on the theme for the evening and David and Helen Paige (Helen is the regional director for the Gurteen Knowledge Community in Adelaide) will facilitate the session.

David has run 100s of knowledge cafes over the last few years and they are really great learning and networking events. Everyone engages with the theme of the cafe and some tremendous insightful, energetic conversations take place. If you can make it - please do come along. You will not be disappointed. Better still the cafe format is one that you can take back with you and use in your own organizations to help create a more innovative culture.

To get an idea of the event take a look below at a video of a Gurteen Knowledge Cafe held in Hong Kong last year.

On 25th October 2007 I ran a Knowledge Cafe in Sydney. It was hosted by Annalie Killian of AMP on the 25th Floor of their building overlooking Sydney Harbour.

The Cafe was on the theme "What will be the impact of Social Tools within Organizations?" which I co-facilitated with Helen Paige who is regional director of the Gurteen Knowledge Community in Adelaide. About 70 people attended. It was a grat evening.
