These are some of the words I heard at a Christmas tree stand in the upper east side of Manhattan last week. The simple stand is a true symbol of knowledge sharing in this NY neighbourhood.

Reflect Tags: knowledge managemen I recently read a short piece that questioned the concept of Best Practices. This This really resonates with me.

The two key words I think about in learning about buying a house are Trust and Knowledge Management.

You are opening your front door for other knowledge workers interested about what you may have got to say to share their ¢2 with you. Over there you can see how over the last couple of days we have been having a rather interesting discussion on sharing your knowledge, collaborating and re-finding the content shared.

In particularly to talk about the differences between different types of social constructions in the knowledge management context.

While I came with the communication egg model to talk about things missing in distributed teams I feel that it could be useful in more contexts.

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

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.
