Don Pinchbeck commented on RSA Networks's group 'Music Industry & Education Network'
"Well, in joining such elite musicians, I'm not really in the correct league - perhaps more Conference than Premier, but I played up to 6 times per week for evangelical churches for about 20 years, and played frequently in less salubrious…"

Music Industry & Education Network
The Music Industry & Music Education Group The RSA’s way of working consists of providing platforms for critical debate and new ideas; working with partners to translate knowledge and progressive thinking into practical change. With this in mind the RSA has created a new and exciting on-line platform: The Music Industry & Music Education Group. Led by RSA Fellow Francis Seriau (Music Entrepreneur,…See More

"Peter,
I am in an ongoing discussion with Don about this subject... and I feel your pain. I have taken to private discussion on this subject - with a handful of others - as I feel that the public discussion AT THIS STAGE is counterproductive in that…"

"John I believe you know Don so he has probably filled you in on the VCH story but just in case, and at the risk of being accused of looking backwards, it would be great for someone who knows what they are doing (I don't) to leapfrog this…"

William Shipley Group for RSA History
This Fellows' network wishes to raise awareness of the history of the RSA from its foundation in 1754 to the more recent past.
David Wilcox replied to Don Pinchbeck's discussion 'A Ramble though the history of the Virtual Coffee House - and the future' in the group Digital Engagement
"Thanks John - very helpful. Focus on 3.
Others in DE can help (I'm a returner) but I sense that currently DE is mainly positioned as *advising* RSA staff on some or all or 2 and 3 - rather than setting anything up, or facilitating.
There…"

"David, I disagree. I'm only concerned (at the moment) with 3 and 4 - but especially 3. Until FRSAs can get these issues resolved I think going to the outside world is ambitious.
I have to believe that 1 and 2 are taken care of - and if not then…"

"Hi John
>The way forward, to leverage the obvious talent and enthusiasm of the FRSAs, is governance, policy and simplification.
You are, of course, absolutely right. A lot of effort has been spent on trying to achieve that clarity over the…"

""RSA Fellows, we have a problem!"
Further investigation has surfaced the fact that RSA Fellows are using just about every social tool know to (wo)man.
I don't think that there is any automatic technological solution to providing…"

"Hi Don, all - are there the following broad needs, from discussions?
1 Better hosting and signposting to welcome and guide people, on the Ning site (s) with cross-links to Linkedin etc. The usual community management functions.
2 More pro-active…"

"Graham
I could respond to some of your comments, but I don't think that it would take us forward so I'll desist.
Fact is that out of 27,000 Fellows, most don't feel that they have unmet needs in this area. They are content. Many…"

"John - maybe this Ning, plus Linkedin, and Twitter are the Birds of a Feather gatherings of Fellows in various blogs, forums, groups, threads ... with some RSS-fed bulletins from other RSA events, publications and projects which are the big show.…"

"David, I find that a very useful analogy, although it does seem at odds with the perceptions and voice of the issues that I have gleaned from these discussions over the last couple of weeks. The implication I had read into the discussions was that…"

"Perhaps the difficulty here is that RSA is (at least) two different organisations: staff and Fellows. Think two different events in adjacent spaces. One is a well organised conference with presentations and facilitated workshops. The other is more…"

Review of RSA Fellowship nings, social networks
Over the next few months the RSAde Group will be consolidating regional social networks and nings.
The aim will be to improve connectivity for Fellows, improve communication and reduce fragmentation.

The Power of Vulnerability
Influential author and speaker Dr Brené Brown tackles the myth that vulnerability is a weakness. Instead, she argues, it is the clearest path to courage and meaningful connection, and has the power to transform the way we engage and educate.Leading Change
With many of us facing an ever greater pace of change in our personal and working lives, leadership adviser and educator Richard Gerver reveals how to adapt and thrive - not to fear change but to see it as an opportunity for creative reinventionFrom the digital divide to inclusive innovation: the case of digital money
