DESCRIPTION
I gave this presentation to a group of health care managers in Alberta Canada (February 2009). The goal of this presentation was to increase awareness around the possibilities that Web 2.0 tools offer the managers to enable their teams to network, collaborate and share knowledge. It was well received and I have been asked to present it again in December 2009.
