Intelligence Collaborative Initial Ideas on Getting Organized Content drawn from Ning and offline discussion. All content is open to discussion!
Overview • Goals • Audience • Deliverables / Audience • Fundamental Principles • Potential Models • Relationship to other orgs/activities • Mechanics • Membership • Promotion • Handling Discussions/Deliverables • Tools
Goals How do we select from these goals? What’s the sensible phased approach to accomplishing our selections?
Audience • What disciplines do we want to involve? • Consider“intelligence ecosphere” Intelligence Ecosphere (M. Nelson)
Fundamental Principles • Some ideas: • No money changes hands. • Ideas are the basic currency of the group. • Maintain a respectful environment, and when we disagree with one another we do so based on evidence and fact, clearly presented. • Other…?
Potential Models • Who can we borrow ideas from? • Tech Cocktail? (“Drinktanks”) • OpenSource software development • ECGI (European Corporate Governance Institute)? ECGI.org • Other?
Relationship to other Orgs/Activities • Can we draw a picture of how we want to relate to folks like: • SCIP • PDMA • American Marketing Association • SLA • ASP
Membership • Who can join? • How do you join? • Is approval needed? • What is the definition of a “valued contributor” vs. “observer/learner” vs. “not welcome”? How do we enforce this? • Must manage trolls, advertisers, non-contributors and obstructionists somehow… • Is there a re-instatement mechanism? Appeals?
Promotion • Do we need to do any promotion? Are there any audiences we don’t have contact with that we should? • How do we do this?
Handling Discussions/Deliverables • What kind of problems do we expect to solve? • How do we work together? One idea: • Collaboratively generate a “problems list” and allow members to “join a problem”. • Provide basic structure for expected outcomes • E.g., basic documentation of some type, information on who contributed, any related references and resources. • Discussion is refereed by the “problem champion” who proposed the item (or anyone else they agree on). • Provide tools for group to use (see Tools page) • Outcomes are posted somewhere for all to see (cross linked from master Problem List to allow easy review).
Tools • What are the processes that need to be supported by tools? • Sign-up • Information sharing • Handling discussions (live and asynchronous) • Who sets all this up and manages it? • DIGG concept applied to peer-reviewed research • Standardize on a version of video VoIP + a shared wiki + a shared online mechanism for organizing and announcing live interactions (such as meetup.com) • Use of “nonstandard” tools is ok, but no one wants to have to install/learn new tools for every discussion.
