      • Digitalocracy – A manifesto about the new social class
      • Finish writing my manifesto and tie it into how organizations (private, non-profit, government) can embrace this new social class to grow themselves and better meet their mission.
      • Developing communities that embrace the Digitalocracy
      • Physical communities are at a crossroads of understanding how to embrace this new social class, Digitalocracy; a social class that is inherently transient and often disloyal to old systems. There are several tactics that can make a community much more appealing to the Digitalocracy and those will be laid out in this workbook. This will be based on the presentation that I do for Knowlton and Ignite.
    13. Products (continued)
      • Building Your Organizations’ Internal Community
      • A vast amount of resources are wasted within your business simply because you don’t have a community mindset within your workgroups. Re-aligning your workforce to think in terms of community compels individuals to greater knowledge and resource sharing and greater commitment to both the organization and their peers.
      • Using the Art of Hosting guidebook, develop a guide that uses the same sorts of techniques as a way of building organizational community.
      • Broadening Your Community Outreach
      • How do some organizations manage to become integral to the local community while others fail to garner a toehold? This program will provide tools to finding your organizations niche for community engagement and then expanding on it; building your community outreach along the way.
      • I will discuss a combination of online and analog tools for building community similar to the internal community building techniques.
    14. Products (continued)
      • Cooperative Systems and Collaboration FTW
      • Living organisms survive because of cooperation and collaboration. Why then do we assume that organizations, made up of humans (aka living organisms) are best kept mechanical and linear? What happens when you start thinking organically? This handbook will guide you through understanding how to utilize cooperative and collaborative systems within your organization.
      • Social Knowledge: Using Social Media to Know What You Know
      • My contribution to this book deals with cultural barriers to organizations embracing social media.
    15. Timeline – Prep Work
      • How many hours will I spend creating my products (writing and design)?
      • How many hours to develop my website?
      • How many hours devoted to aligning my social networks?
      • How many hours developing business documents?
    16. Timeline – Working Days
      • During established work days how much time do I devote to:
      • Online Interaction/Online Marketing
      • Research
      • Writing/Product Development
      • Face-to-Face Outreach
      • Speaking Engagements
      • Direct Billable Hours
    17. Educational Needs
      • Meg Whitely Materials
      • The U reading
      • Further practice with AoH techniques
      • Interview small business owners
    18. Getting Concrete About Services
      • Digital storytelling that facilitates knowledge sharing and learning
      • Facilitation of face to face meetings as well as online meetings via the use of social media tools meant to build organizational innovation, collaboration and community
      • Discussion moderation and conversation hosting related to trust management, change management and communities of interest
      • Conflict resolution
      • Implementation of digital collaboration tools
    19. Elevator Pitch Draft I will work with organizations to develop their narrative, the story that links all of the functional work groups and individuals within the organization. This will be accomplished using collaborative face-to-face engagement and social media tools. By developing this narrative the organization will uncover a wealth of community knowledge previously locked away. The result of sharing this community knowledge is greater efficiency and innovation along with a renewed energy from all participants.
