Working out loud has been steadily gaining popularity and has become a topic of conversation on many forums including the Facebook community of the same name. In this post, I want to demystify working out loud and highlight the organizational as well as personal growth that accrues from the practice.

For knowledge workers everywhere, the nature of work is shifting fast. Put another way, half of the skills knowledge workers have today will be useless in less than five years. Think about the last particularly tough conversation you had at work. That definition isn’t wrong, but it’s not precise.

In this post, I want to demystify working out loud and highlight the organizational as well as personal growth that accrues from the practice. It has helped me to develop my personal learning network (PLN) and enabled my PKM. I am a huge believer of the practice because I have experienced the effect first hand.

Online Sessions / Conferences / Discussions => Now Visible Networking I’ve seen during 2009 a real growth in the ability to spark up interesting discussions as online sessions. It came during a presentation when I said: It's a much better use of my time to use LinkedIn to spark a conversation than it is to go to networking events.

Bonds don’t form over a Skype call but over coffee and lunch when conversations veer to the personal and discussions revolve around interests.

As I've said many times, for concept workers work and learning are inseparable. For a knowledge worker, generally its something like the start of a new project or a new kind of situation that sparks the need for learning. Again, you can go back to Networks and Learning Communities to see quite a bit about all of this.
