Cognitive Edge. Its been a long time coming but I'm getting to the next stage of the Knowledge Sharing Across Silos series where I will start to move from analysis to the problem to solutions over a series of posts. However I found when I started writing the first solution post that there was still a story to be told, namely the origin of the Cynefin Framework (or at least its early stages). It all started as a means to understand how informal networks and supporting technologies allow grater connectivity and more rapid association of unexpected ideas and capabilities than formal systems. A long time ago now I read Boisot's Knowledge Assets for the first time and thanks to the agency of Yasmin Merali met the author and started to work with him; I'll be teaching with him in Hong Kong next week as it happens.

Harvesting Collective Wisdom Through Enterprise Social Networks. Every time someone retires in an organization a treasure trove of knowledge is lost. Every time an organization discourages diverse opinion, collective wisdom is eroded. Lewis Frees, of Harmony Inc., has made it his business to challenge organizations to find their "better angels. " Frees sees social networks as catalysts for building collective wisdom. He states, "social networks are the central nervous system of collective intelligence in your organization. " Companies have been trying to harvest the knowledge of their employees through the use of technology since the early 1980s. In many organizations to this day when knowledge is shared it remains within the department, an isolated silo in which collective intelligence is limited to only the immediate inside members.

Knowledge sharing should be an essential aspect of any organization. Here are seven characteristics of knowledge-based organizations: So how do private social networks foster knowledge-based organizations? The Emergence of a "Know" Profile | The Relationship E. We all have profiles of ourselves everywhere. Our profiles “contain” relevant information about our educations, experience and interest. Every time we “tweet” or write a post the context of what we share is also a reflection of our “profile“. The word “profile” carries many meanings including: a verbal, arithmetical, or graphic summary or analysis of the history, status, etc., of a process, activity, relationship,or set of characteristics:an informal biography or a concisely presented sketch of the life and character of a person. set of characteristics or qualities that identify a type or category of person or thing:a description of behavioral and personality traits of a person compared with accepted norms or standards.

Given the progress of technology in the near future our “profiles” will integrate our individual “knowledge inventory” relevant to intellectual, social, creative and spiritual capital we all possess.

When we established our list of 100 Companies That Matter 10 years ago, “knowledge management” was just beginning to be a recognized term in the boardroom. However, getting the right information, product or service to the right people at the right time has been fundamental to the success of an organization since well before the Industrial Revolution.

Make no mistake, though, KM is not now (nor will it ever likely be) a household word. Nor is it an application. It’s an attitude, a commitment to excellence and innovation shared by the companies, large and small, on this list. A decade ago, a lot of vendors were so intoxicated by their technology that they tried to woo their customers with dazzling features, capabilities they thrust upon clients without fully understanding their legitimate needs. Now, in 2010, that’s no longer true. Our list is really a snapshot in time for the evolving and expanding knowledge management universe. 5280 Solutions A2iA Accusoft Pegasus Adobe Alfresco Alterian.

Knowledge Management System - Stylus Inc. Problem Identified I’m in need of a system that will help in managing information, projects, processes and knowledge in my organization. I wish to implement a system for employees in my organization to capture, store and disseminate information.

Useful information usually resides in various documents, email messages, chat transcripts, projects, processes, and most of the time in people’s heads. Most of the time this knowledge isn’t stored and therefore difficult to retrieve when necessary. Information about processes and practices are usually resident in a particular individual’s head and even more difficult to capture and use. People tend to work within silos of information that don’t get shared across an organization easily. Solution Proposed We understand that the system that we are going to develop ought to capture all the different kinds of information existing in your organization and also make it easy for all your employees to capture, store and disseminate information.

TEN LANDMARKS TOWARD NEXT GENERATION KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT. 25613526KnowledgeManagementSystemDevelopmentDerivedFromHumanSyst. Main Page - KM4DevWiki. There’s wisdom in waiting: the CGX 2.0 Coaching Strategy a month.

Last October 29, the CGX 2.0 team (Tania, Michael and myself) attended “Knowledge Sharing: Getting Together to Do It Better“, at IDLO Headquarters in Rome. The event was jointly organized by the KM4Dev Rome chapter and the Rome-based organizations that had already collaborated for the ShareFair in January 2009. The day was exciting and exhausting.

Nobody dared putting up a slideshow, post-it notes and index cards were shuffled on the carpet and attached to walls, colored markers traded, pictures taken, tweets sent out, carbs suitably provided to sustain the brainstorming and physical activity… so you’re warned: if you ever get invited to an event where knowledge sharing methods are going to be used, wear trainers and comfortable clothes. The CGX2.0 session was run as a world cafe’. Two colleagues from Bioversity (Cristina Sette and Adriana Alercia) kindly helped us as hostesses of the table discussions.
