For those of you who've been with KM Edge from the beginning, you'll remember that we launched this Web site at APQC's 2008 KM conference. Since we know that travel dollars may be limited next year, we want to make sure that our readers are among the first to be offered early-bird pricing for our 2009 knowledge management conference and training, The Knowledge Transfer Revolution: New Paradigms, New Payoffs, which will take place in Houston May 11-15.
APQC's annual conference has become a leading forum for KM practitioners to share best practices, trends, opportunities, and challenges. We have lined up six extraordinary keynote speakers for next year's conference:
- Carla O'Dell, Ph.D., president, APQC
- Christopher Meyer, chief executive, Monitor Networks
- Alan Deutschman, executive director, Unboundary
- John McQuary, vice president, KM and technology strategies, Fluor Corp.
- Rob Cross, professor of management,
- Victor Newman, author of The Knowledge Activist's Handbook: Adventures from the Knowledge Trenches
We'll also be offering 16 knowledge-sharing breakout sessions led by some of today's most innovative KM organizations and seven new and updated training courses in Web 2.0, KM, communities of practice, and benchmarking.
I encourage you to reserve your seat by registering today. For more information, you can visit our conference Web page or e-mail Debbie Norman at dnorman@apqc.org. You can also post your questions on the blog--we'll make sure you receive a prompt answer. I hope to see all of you in May!
Note: If you're interested in presenting at the conference, you only have until November 17 to submit your abstract. Those chosen to present will attend the conference for free.
