When Tom Peters wrote, " We either get used to thinking about the subtle
processes of learning and sharing knowledge in dispersed, transient
networks... Or we perish," The Critical Linkages II Newsletter ( devoted
to creating awareness and action among decision makers in all fields
across traditional boundaries ,,, regarding the necessity of providing
Quality Learning Opportunities) took up the challenge. In October 1996,
we formed a group called Networking For Knowledge (NFK) with the intent of
testing theories of knowledge creation and innovation.
Update
What we have found is that a wealth of knowledge, wisdom, and innovation
exists and can be created among people with a passion for learning and a
willingness to explore critical linkages across traditional occupational,
professional, and academic boundaries -- even in a dispersed, transient
network.
In the past few years NFK has grown to the point where we meet almost
exclusively via email.
The Opportunity
Recently NFK explored Key Issues Facing Us As We Enter The 21st Century.
