You may remember that I participated in the National Public Media Camp last year in Washington, DC. That event was incredible as well and this is meant as a local extension of that event. If you’d like to read more about the original event here is my review – Community Engagement via Un-Conferences and here is a write up about my presentation there – Conversation Hosting Primer. You can also check out the Public Media Camp Wiki and other links from the original event here – PubCamp.

My contribution to Social Knowledge: Using Social Media to Know What You Know is moving forward in the process. I’m hoping to have a chance to update you all as to the publish date when that becomes available.

Bridging the Gap Between Traditional Offline Engagement and Online Social Networking
Does your organization have a split personality? Is your audience getting mixed messages between how you interact online versus offline? Learn how bridging the gap between your traditional audience engagement and your online social networking efforts will provide a stronger foundation of supporters and greater innovation.

I love the opportunity to meet up with my fellow Art of Hosting practitioners and this January’s meetup was no different.

I had the pleasure of hosting this event with Phil Cass, Hazel and Chuck Morrow-Jones and Rick Livingston. The turnout for the event was great with about 30 participants including a couple of Oberlin students and a Boston area writer who is interested in covering the Columbus movement in an upcoming book that she is publishing with Meg Wheatley.

The event took place at the Ohio State University Knowlton School of Architecture which is one of my favorite facilities in Columbus.

Our event flowed through a check-in, two rounds of open space, a set of knowledge cafes and completed with a group breathe check-out. You are welcome to browse through some photographs of the event by clicking the thumbnails below.

Below is a video of Phil Cass talking briefly about leading through connectivity:
