Arthur Andersen had it all, and more. And then it all went wrong. Come and listen to the real life war stories about the CoP's at Arthur Andersen and learn about some key elements that turn your CoP's into a winning proposition. Stephen John, Head of Global Organization Effectiveness at Aventis Pharmaceutical, Inc. and a leader in the field of Communities of Practice, will share his insight about the Arthur Andersen CoP's. Stephen has just recently finished a writing a chapter, in a soon to be released book, on this specific topic. The event will also be moderated by Jason Slusher, Senior Manager, Knowledge Management at Aventis Pharmaceutical, Inc, and President of the KMPro New Jersey Chapter. Date: December 3, 2003 Time: 6:00P.M. to 8:00P.M. Cost: $10.00 Entrance Details: Please bring this print out with you to share with the Aventis Pharmaceutical Security Staff for entry to the corporate campus Location: Aventis Pharmacueticals, Inc. 1041 Route 202-206 Bridgewater, NJ 08807-0800 For directions please go to: http://www.aventispharma-us.com/aboutus/MapsAndDirections.jsp RSVP: Please RSVP for the event at the following email address: njchapter@kmpro.org. Walk-In attendees are welcome on the evening of the event. We've heard from our members that anyone can read the theory, however, it is the real life experiences that help you implement your plans. This is what we aim to give you! Come and hear a "from-the-trenches' view of CoP mishaps at Arthur Andersen, and learn how you can avoid repeating them. This is Knowledge Management in action, and this is the valuable take away we want give you. We look forward to seeing you, and your colleagues, there.
