Learning from KM
What have you learned from dabling in KM?
Here is my quick list:
* Knowledge is about relationships & dialog not access to information
* Improved awareness has greater long term value that access
* Tools do not really matter - identity and trust do!
* A shared language bootstraps creativity and collaboration
* KM takes time, 3-5 years!!
I'm taking part in OSN2005
Fostering a conversation on advanced knowledge practices in on-line social networks and gently guiding thoughts on KM - has the fad faded? in the cafe.
This is an exciting gathering of over 400 participants, talking arouns tools, practices and process and telling stories - doing what OSN folk do best - connecting.
Effective KM can occur only when a systematic approach to all sources is taken, sources that are both tacitc and explicit.

That a domain lacking a clear definition will eventually evolve to include everything, thus becoming nothing.

In Real Estate, the three most important words are location, location, location. In KM, the three most important words are quality, quality, quality. Does anything else matter? What ever it is will be destroyed once the quality is gone.

Hi Denham,
Suddenly it struck me !
KM is not about IQ
It can be successful only with high EQ !
collaboration, networking, understanding where one is coming from, contexting are all skills that are EQ based !

Gautam
