December 5: Web of Ideas with David Weinberger on “Is the Web Changing the Nature of Leadership?”
Wednesday, December 5, 6:30 pm
Berkman Center Conference Room
23 Everett St., 2nd Floor, Cambridge MA
It’s easy to find business and political leaders. But who are the Web’s leaders? Although the big online collaborative projects have nominal leaders, they play a very different role than do traditional CEO’s. The Web seems to be providing an alternative to the notion that business leaders are people imbued with special traits. In fact, Some of the traits and roles of traditional leadership are now becoming properties of the network itself. What effect might that have on leadership off the Web? Is online life so different that political and business leadership will continue unaltered? Come to an open discussion…
Web of Ideas is a Wednesday night discussion series at the Berkman Center, lead by Berkman Fellow David Weinberger, co-author of The Cluetrain Manifesto and author of Small Pieces Loosely Joined. Each session will begin with a 20 minute discussion-opener, followed by open conversation. Food will be provided, and meetings will take place at the Berkman Center. Pizza will be served!
