Hi this is Grant sending from my Gal's email. I know she won't mind. She has been working so hard to help me get this thing off the ground. .TASTY is located...
I am on an educators listserv in Second Life and this interesting post came across this afternoon. I thought some of you might be interested given your work...
Dear all, For a workshop I looked for resources on the transition phase and never found any good materials. Currently, I'm stepping down as a community ...
Hi Joitske, maybe some stories here... I'm not sure if they're applicable, though. We've handled different types of leadership transition for online CoPs, but...
Joitske, Changing leadership is definitely one of the primary instigators for change in community and needs to be handled carefully. I thought a lot about ...
An interesting set of issues. I hear some differences in *scale* in what Miguel is saying (if he's drawing from the Macuarium experience, which involves a...
Thanks Miguel, Patti and John (and some people who replied offlist), after I posted my message I was wondering whether it is transition or transformation of...
Joitske, I'm not completely sure whether it's a correct attribution, but I think I remember Richard McDermott suggesting that when working with change in a ...
Some of us in the Fall CP Square workshop explored several technologies as tools supporting Communities of Practice. One we dabbled with but didn't explore...

Thanks for the examples, Miguel, of course we always love the troublesome stories more, much easier to identify with :) So would be nice if you could share one...

A simple one, several years ago: - We changed the moderators at the news forum of the main community. This was due to lack of time and a whiff of lack of...
Hi again, on the issue of CoP change, you and John and Josien Kapma got me writing. It's more about the need to plan for perpetual change, from the designer's...
Hi Miguel, thanks for your example and metaphore. With regards to the example, I drew another lesson which is that it may be tricky if the former leadership...
Hi Joitske, glad you liked'em. On the sand-castle idea, the metaphor would rather fit the "infrastructure" (living or not) that supports the CoP. Events,...
Hi all, it seems so many on this list are in the US, that everything stops near Thanksgiving :-). For those with an appetite for a CoP-slanted view of what a...
I just became aware of this 2 year Geneva position at a Cognitive Edge workshop earlier this week. Please distribute to colleagues who might be interested. I...
This thread caught my eye as a CoP which I support is going through a major transition at this very point in time. The IBM article and the sandcastle blog were...
Hi all, I came across this group while doing a general search on "CollectiveX.com" and noticed that subscribers had questions about our service. I would like...
Hello, all! I am going to be teaching a course next semester, a small portion of which will be introducing the concept of communities of practice. Because it...
