I know that Jon didn't create his post - ASTD TechKnowledge Comments in order to get me to post and link to him. If you want get a sense of what I discussed in the keynote - go to ASTD Follow-Up. But in many ways, Jon is exactly right that David set the stage discussing Twitter and other aspects of social media.

Why hasn’t ASTD figured out how to do things right. Once again, ASTD dropped the ball. If I could give ASTD a grade it would be a massive F.

It’s the yearly review of the ASTD International Conference and Expo. First off, this part is going to sound like I’m bashing ASTD, and perhaps to a degree I am. If you were a volunteer to ASTD, this is not about you – it is solely about ASTD. ASTD bags – always nice. Read all about it.

Leaders need tools (See: ASTD Workforce Development Blog ). People who need permission to be open and honest, have it; the structured process gives them that permission. The task is no longer personal; it’s about following the tool’s process to achieve organizational success; it''s not about any one person’s agenda.
