Loretta and other IAF members,

I have just finished reading a book, I believe I saw at the Digital Dialogue session, "Wikinomics" by Don Tapscott and Anthony Williams. I am very inspired by the book. It's sub-title is "How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything."

I've begun a wiki and a blog on my site www.BeCauseBusiness.com. I found Tapscott and Williams offer ideas about how they see collaboration is moving throughout businesses.

On my website I offer information for businesses in general to improve their effectiveness. I am using my wiki for specific industry ideas. I became fascinated with participative management and self-managing teams from my social change project and thesis "Using Community Outreach to promote Distance Education." My studies at Antioch in Seattle particularly in coaching and facilitation added to my interest in collaboration.

I wish to continue the dialogues begun in our Digital Dialogue session and the other IAF sessions.

cheers,
