As everyone was chatting I was recalling Influencer's six sources of influence and based on that model I suggested an alternative that appealed to personal and social motivation of an important person on every team: the team manager. Personal motivation initiative : we are creating a one-page handout describing why the team manager is an important role and listing four things every manager must do to be great at the job.

The Best from the Communities and Networks Connection Community

Funny enough, that has been like that for quite a while, having gotten started around 2001, when I was first getting exposed to Knowledge Management (KM or Knowledge Sharing, whatever you would prefer) as time and time again I kept bumping into multiple knowledge managers wanting to define it. Ray Sims made a very brave attempt by managing to compile the whopping number of #62 of them . Most of the folks out there who know me, and have been following this blog for a while, have probably realised by now how much I dislike definitions, and putting labels on things, in general.
So when Bill Ives just recently questioned whether you could make use of Twitter as a Personal Knowledge Management tool I couldn’t help but wonder myself whether I am using it as well as my PKM tool of choice, along with my own personal business blog and a couple of other tools. And I think I have finally managed to make it work. I have been using Twitter now for over two and a half years and, all along, if you have been following some of my recent twitterings , you would know how I seem to keep having a love / hate relationship with it. It still remains
My colleague Hugh Bathurst is currently working for an engineering firm helping one of the divisions develop a knowledge sharing culture. Hugh has been collecting stories, eliciting how things get done and encouraging peope to contribute to developing of a range of knowledge resources. Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting the manager who's sponsoring this initiative. His division is leading the firm financially and he puts their success largely down to the knowledge sharing initiatives, especially their ability to transform their culture over the last 18 months.

If you have been following this blog for a while, you would know how my professional background comes from various different areas associated for quite some time now with Knowledge Management, in particular, traditional Knowledge Management: Collaboration, Community Building, Learning, etc. One of them, perhaps one of the most powerful and traditional ones, was IBM ’s Global Business Services ‘ Learning and Knowledge . Yes, I am one of those folks who eventually worked for several different projects, throughout the years, dealing with deploying successfully specific KM and community building programs for various business units.
I interviewed him about the use of Yammer as an internal microblogging tool. At our department with 50 people there was a need for more knowledge and news to share. There are many meetings, meetings and seminars, but knowledge was not structurally shared. We have not evaluated it, but people are definitely more active knowledge sharing. Godfried Knipscheer works as digital communications advisor to the Flemish government in Belgium and is project leader of a social media project. What have people learned in a conference or meeting? What valuable experiences
We (team of 3) are doing a study about Monitoring and Evaluation of Knowledge Management Interventions. After all, the aim is not to have a community of practice, but to have a functional community of practice and which functional I mean stewarding knowledge and innovating practices. One remarkable thing is the concept of Knowledge Management itself . Let me use (part of) a rainy saturday afternoon to try and organize some of my new thoughts about impact assessment. I
Since 1999, my work has been related to Knowledge Management (KM). Already then, KM was a term that was not well recognised; at the time, we did not label our KM-related consulting services with Knowledge Management. Today I am holding an official position in Knowledge Management, still many people do not grasp the term and have a clear understanding of it. “Knowledge We welcome Tim Wieringa as a guest blogger to Green Chameleon. Since 8220;Knowledge Management” seems to be fuzzy and not specific enough; it does not refer to daily (work) life
Technology is the tail wagging the dog when it comes to knowledge management - it always has been. search, content management, portals... It began with search and content management systems, then portals, and now it's rooted in social software (if one limits social software to blogs, wikis, tags/bookmarks, feeds and social networking). Excellent (the post below). Why?
Dave Snowden has updated his principles on “Rendering Knowledge” on  Cognitive Edge   These are worth reblogging. What is the heat of knowledge sharing? Knowledge can only be volunteered it cannot be conscripted. You can’t make someone share their I encourage you to go in and read the full post for all the context.
