23. Six ways to engage in a 2.0 World

24. Be Yourself We have been trained throughout our business careers to suppress our individual voice and to sound like a 'professional', that is, to sound like everyone else. This professional voice is distinctive. And weird. Taken out of context, it is as mannered as the ritualistic dialogue of the 17th-century French court. David Weinberger

27. Have learning conversations The kind of conversation I’m interested in is one in which you start with a willingness to emerge a slightly different person. Theodore Zeldin, Historian

28. Work with People An innovative, healthy organization requires that we work with people rather than do things to them . Alfie Kohn How do we better work together? How do we make them share?

33. We are moving to a participatory “WE world” Yes, we . We control the Informaton Age. Welcome to our world.
