We had the honor of being invited to speak at the 4th Annual Nonprofit Management Institute, held on October 6th and 7th by the Stanford Social Innovation Review on the university campus. Heather Grant spoke to the plenary session on the 7th and I joined her in fielding questions afterwards. I was happy to find that the questions reflected many of the issues that I see being discussed by the bloggers and twitterers that I follow here, ranging from tactical matters such as how to manage time when using social media to more strategic questions about the kind of organizational structure needed to run a network. Some people had stories about social media and networks of their own to share with the group, reflecting the amount of active experimentation going on as we speak. Heather’s presentation was about the work we’ve been doing here at the Monitor Institute’s networks practice, giving an introduction to the changes sweeping through the social sector today as a result of networked technologies and some of the emergent models that we’ve been studying of networked organizational structure. Her slides are below. The speech was published by the SSIR’s Social Innovation Conversations and now available as a free podcast.
