Emphasis Added : Business School 2.0

Business School 2.0

If you can hear me over the wind, the ambient noise, and the occasional ambulance siren, here I am talking about "Business School 2.0" with interviewer Richard Collin of Grebnoble Ecole De Management at the Enterprise 2.0 Conference in Boston. Cliff Notes version: business schools should help NetGen students discover the business value in the technologies they use in their personal lives and prepare them to become ambassadors of new ways of working and new ways of seeing organizations when they arrive at the workplace.

Off topic -- While it's nice to "hear" from you, I think we lost the personal Rob Salkowitz.

There are all these digital but decidely professional cookie crumbs left all over the intertoobz, and that's it, as if the 'net has finally had its way with Rob and subsumed him like the proverbial Borg. He's become talking head in a tiny box.

Does that say something about business school 2.0 and perhaps 3.0, that we're more worried about the tiny box and what's in it, than what it really means to be authentic and organic?
