Jon Husband - From Hierarchy To Wirearchy

Speaker

I noticed that you still have a spot in the Enterprise / Enterprise 2.0 area of the agenda.

I have presented a fair bit (including at ReBoot this past June) about the organizing principle I have termed wirearchy. I have been writing about this for about 6 years, and much of it is mmirrored by Gary Hamel's new book (Sept. 07) titled The Future of Management;

I have also just finished a book, to be published in January / February 2008 about the early impacts of Web 2.0 on Knowledge Management. The book also chronicles the emergence of Enterprise 2.0 and delves into software capabilities and architecture, collaboration platforms, etc. It will be published by the Ark Group (UK).

The above is just to establish some basic credibility.

I think a much bigger deal is or will be the continued emergence of the organizing principle of wirearchy and its implications for the design, implementation and managhement of knowledge work.

To that end, I recently developed a podcast in which I interviewd a recognized guru (Dave Snowden) about this. The podcast continues to gather substantial traffic after two months, and there is a lot of concise and well-argued information in it from Dave about why knowledge work is going to change so very much over the next decade. Here's a link to a blog post outlining why it is seen to be very useful (http://blog.simslearningconnections.com/?p=198)

I can and do speak to that in my presentations, and have often spoken (in Canada) about the workplace of the (emerging) future.

For what it's worth, I am also fully bilingual and could do the session in French as well. In the press coverage link below, I have included a link to a recent interview by the Australian Financial Review (Aus. and NZ) for its leadership magazine. I have also been covered by the Canadian press, and blog from time to time for Canada's premier IT magazine.

I would appreciate it if you would consider inviting me to speak at LIFT 08
