KMLF Looking Back, Looking Forward
2009 has been a great year for KMLF (see events summary below). It is the first year that we have offered events in every month (two in August!). We collaborated with other networks (KM Roundtable and VPSCIN) to manage a larger activity and hosted three international speakers. Participants have enjoyed a wide range of topics and formats and we have successfully kept the events interactive and conversation based. This has generated a lot of positive feedback and good participation throughout the year.
The KMLF organisers are very much interested in your feedback and participation (both face to face and on-line). This December (Wed 9th) we will be hosting a preview/review conversation about where KMLF is at and where we want to be. We will start with drinks and conversation at the Business School and then walk to a nearby restaurant to continue dialogue over dinner.
Please start the conversations with colleagues and feel free to share your ideas with organisers through any of the means below (starting tonight at the meeting with Peter and again with Nancy White on Mon Nov 16th).
