Waggle is coming May 29th

Waggle Book New Cover Promotion

My newest free eBook Waggle is coming on May 29th. This book looks fantastic on a tablet or smart phone. It is based on 3 years attempting to convene honeybees and humans. It is not really about bees, don’t worry you won’t get stung. It is about what we can learn from bees to improve our own work, engagement, and organizations.

It will be released on May 29th. because that is Manitoba’s: Day of the Honeybee.

I will post it on this site and other places on that day. It is 68 pages long and has lots of pictures so it is an easy read, perfect while you are waiting at the gate for your flight to Timbuktu or waiting in your doctor’s office.

I no longer have the patience for most business books that drone on for 350 pages and generally I can find most of what I am looking for from an author in a good blog post. I just had so many great images that I wanted something that was easier to look at and pass around.

The book is free, you will just click on the image and read it or download it. There is no email or registration required. What I hope you will do is pass it on to others who may benefit by being able to think differently inside their hive.

Come back on May 29, catch the buzz, and start your waggle.

Engage A Live Hive Today (Wednesday June 27- from 9 to 10 CDT)

Think Different Inside the Hive

Engage the connection between social media and a living social beehive.

Today between 9 and 10 CDT, I will be putting a computer live inside a beehive. The hive is located near Starbuck Manitoba and belongs to an extraordinary beekeeper, Phil Veldhuis. The computer screen will be turned on to a Twitter page set for #orgbee. I would appreciate if you would send a tweet between 9 and 10 with the hashtag #orgbee. Your tweet will show up live in the hive, not sure the bees will read it but each tweet will result in a donation to honey bee health.

I believe we can learn much about engagement, work, and community from honeybees and it would be good to also give back to them for what they can teach us. During the next 12 months this blog will have a series of articles exploring the connections and learning between employee engagement, work, organizations, community, and social media.

Please take one small action. If you use twitter, tweet the bees between 9 and 10 CDT with the hashtag: #orgbee

If you don’t have a twitter account you can also leave a comment here.
