Yesterday, Learntrends hosted a series of online conversations on boosting the performance of organizations through learning. I thought my personal contacts, the Learntrends membership, notices on Facebook/LinkedIn/Nings, and the Tweetstream would attract flocks of people. Our goal was honest dialog among as many members as possible.

Clark Quinn and I led a discussion on Reinventing Organizational Learning at LearnTrends this morning. The recording will be up before the day is over, but I thought you might enjoy the discussion that went with it. Twitter and chat are ubiquitous at conferences now. The back channel becomes part of the overall message. tmast: yeah.

George Siemens began the day by challenging us to see the world as a set of trade-offs. What’s the optimal balance point? Asking people to jot ideas on the white board, the line that divides presenter from audience began to blur. We’re all audience; we all presenters; it shifts back and forth.

A few years ago, I cajoled Robin into making a presentation at the online LearnTrends conference I was running with George Siemens and Tony Karrer. He has an amazing grasp of what people want in the world and the best way to shape it to get through to them. He brokers wisdom. I love the guy.

As a co-host, I am hardly without bias, but I found this morning’s opening of the free Corporate Learning Trends event fantastic. In spite of some childish hacker-vandals and a few sound issues, each of the three sessions this morning worked.
