We had a very good turnout for the KIN Masterclass 'Exploiting Knowledge in Networks' on Tuesday 20th March at pwc in London.
The enormous growth of social media tools and social/professional networks over the past few years has created new opportunities and new challenges for people and organisations who want to embrace this dynamic world of social interaction and fluid knowledge flows. However, It is not widely recognised that collaboration and knowledge sharing and use of social media tools are skills and practices that rarely get taught. It's something we may learn on the job in a hit or miss fashion. Some people are natural at it. Others struggle to understand it.
This Masterclass - led by Stephen Dale - provided a practical, detailed and hands-on introduction to social media and social/professional networking that will enabled delegates to have a greater understanding of their context for use and deployment within their organisation and for personal and professional development.
Details of the Masterclass content can be found (by KIN members) here
I came away with a long list of new things to try - and it sparked some thinking about the uses and potential benefits of content curation.

I'd be interested in any feedback - good or bad - from the KIN members who attended the Masterclass. Constructive criticism is the best way of refining and improving the event for future delegates
I'm running a slight adaptation of this Masterclass on 2nd October for TFPL if anyone is interested and couldn't get to the KIN event. Details here: http://tfpl.com/services/coursedesc.cfm?id=TR1575
