First Steps
One more advantage of sharing
Molly A. Sandfoss @masandfossBeer is addictive too. So if anyone wants to bring me some Summer Shandy, I would be willing to meet them at the state line... TN, VA or SC
Molly A. Sandfoss @masandfossOlympics can be so addictive.
Working DifferentlyFrom Steve Judd via Google +Key takeaway for me:A network mindset exercises leadership through active participation, openness, decentralized decision-making, and collective action. It means operating with an awareness of the networks the organization is embedded in, and listening to and cultivating these networks to achieve impact. It means sharing by default and communicating through a network model, rather than a broadcast model—finding where the conversations are happening and taking part.It's about the power of the network, not the tools and technologies.Pamela Doherty originally shared this post:Becoming a networked nonprofit-http://www.ssireview.org/blog/entry/becoming_a_networked_nonprofit
