In an upcoming free webinar, knowledge management expert Stan Garfield will detail proven practices for building Communities of Practice (COPs) and share his “Communities Manifesto”.

This is the latest in Stan’s series of webinars for Lucidea. Over the course of his career, Stan has worked with, observed, and interviewed KM leaders to capture and develop proven practices for knowledge management programs, of which COPs are an essential part.

Stan defines Communities of Practice as:

Groups of people who, for a specific subject, share a
- Specialty

- Passion
- Interest
- Concern
- Set of problems
With members who deepen their understanding of the subject together, and …
- Interact on an ongoing basis
- Ask and answer questions
- Share information
- Reuse good ideas
- Solve problems for one another
- Develop new and better ways of doing things

Stan will share his 10 Principles for Communities, and an inspiring (and practical) vision for a Communities Program.
