The Million People Web 2002 currently emerging from
New Zealand/ S. Hemisphere: :: UK/N.Hemisphere ________________________________________________________
Some loosely related conversations:
yes John - Catalytic Mechanisms by Jim Collins is probably the only paper in HBR I have found worth reading - or are you referring to an update?, the original I recall was at least 4 years ago - certainly a favourite and largely what the design of Million People Webs
http://www.valuetrue.com/home/glossary.cfm is about - each pledge needs to be designed as a catalyst to change the systems of systems - so is there any neighbouring theory on how one catalyses systems ( also called pranks by Marjorie Kelly when you tease capitalism into chnaging its rotten laws)
and Jim's web is quite cool

some jolly timely conversations going on at this European Union space under the chief hosting of Helen Baxter a Brit who telecommutes from New Zealand:
http://www.knowledgeboard.com/forum/0/0/181-so if you are asking people to give their time to a great network, why not confront the issue of being a hybrid of not-for-profit and profit? and the issue of how you flow across like minded territories (aka networks of people)
http://www.knowledgeboard.com/cgi-bin/foru...opic=66&comment=239those who would identify the dna they want to plant and move might like to know: there are (as far as I know) only 2 types of organisation: those whose unique purpose openly unites everyone, and those not worth a relationship...The price of anything is the amount of life you pay for it."
