5 weeks ago I mentioned the start of our course Working 2.0. Now the Christmas holidays start and we are halfway. What came of our plans until now?
Well, we have 10 working groups with students and every group has another task to work on: advising multinational Ahold about Google apps, creating a campaing for our National airline KLM, another task for Microsoft Netherlands and so on.
One of the projects that has a real spin-of is the publication of the book "New way of working according to Generation Y" (in Dutch...;-).
For the students it is a really exciting experience to work on a book that will be published. For our school it is good publicity of course.
The book will only be published if we can sell 2000 shares of 5,- each. We are expecting our families and friends to support us ofcourse...
More information can be found at: http://www.tenpages.com/manuscript/hnw_generatie_y
More spin of: in february Jan Krans and I will give a presentation about this subject before managers, we will make a game of it.
And last but not least: thanks to the contacts I made in Ankara, I met a researcher who is interested in the 2.0 adaption of young people. Together we will do a research about the 2.0 adaption of students who did our course a year ago. What is still left of their enthousiasm for 2.0 and the new way of working after one year?
There is a lot more to tell, because in meantime I finished the first part of my master-study information science at the University of Amsterdam, and I am preparing a presentation for a conference in april. But more about that in a next blog!
Happy new year everybody!
