I remember that at Fluor when John McQuary was responsible for KM. There was one story about a young engineer who left Fluor to work for another company and after a year came back because she so valued the support of her colleagues at Fluor. I always found it interesting that the stories were about the receivers not the originators of knowledge. In HBR w e read that workers, at all levels, are lonely.

At one point GM had 138 best practice teams and 33 centers of expertise working with identified subject matter experts. In 2008 KM was alive and well at GM. GM was brought down by a flawed strategy, but an organization’s strategy is clearly a product of the knowledge that exists within its walls. The knowledge existed within GM to develop a more competitive strategy. My work has primarily been about creating more effective knowledge sharing processes and communities.

When we work, we’re often unaware of the vast amounts of knowledge, insight, and understanding that inform our jobs and the tasks we are completing. The true knowledge is in how people do their jobs, how the culture works, how the customer data pertains to the way customers connect to the products and services. But how does knowledge management software work, and which one is right for your organization? What is ITIL knowledge management?

A few weeks ago I had the privilege of watching an astounding event - a room full of Soldiers typing Army doctrine onto a wiki so that Soldiers in the field could make changes as they were discovering new and better tactics in the midst of fighting a war. One was that it was happening at all, because to the Army, doctrine is close to sacred. It is written by doctrine specialists and then verified and authenticated at many levels within the hierarchy.

Here are a few examples of the kind of knowledge in those 100 manuals. In this time of accelerated change any organization’s principles and strategies require constant examination and challenge. But the opposite is true, it is at the policy and strategy level that organizations are in most need of the kind of on-going involvement and engagement that the new social media provide. There are even more examples of Generals actively supporting knowledge management activities.

In most situations in which an organization asks or is required to take an in-depth, objective look at an issue, the study report is more likely to be the end rather than the beginning of change. Participatory Action Research is a way to conduct an organizational study that has a very different outcome, that is, change starts to happen while the study is still being conducted. It helped us look at our own process. All of the conversations are a part of the change.

One of the most powerful tools for moving an organization’s culture toward collaboration and knowledge sharing is a process called Action Learning. It is not a new process, but one that was used both in Europe and the US, long before the term “Knowledge Management” was first heard in organizations. In between meetings set members take action on their issues and then report back on the results at the following meeting.

Knowledge flows along existing pathways in organizations. If we want to understand how to improve the flow of knowledge, we need to understand those pathways. A network analysis can help answer questions like: Who are the people in the organization who are the most trusted by their peers to provide straight answers about organizational change and who might be enlisted as knowledge champions in a change management program?

But when HR is fragmented or in multiple countries, or HR processes have been localized (almost personalized) to meet the needs of a location’s HR organization and people, it can be a significant task to (1) develop a set of global processes and (2) localize only at a legal and regulatory level.

Allen points out that scarcity thinking is the enemy of change management everywhere, not just in relation to IT projects or nonprofits and I completely agree. He suggests that good planning can help people adjust their scarcity beliefs, although I wonder if the right kind of planning is possible when management is in the grip of the scarcity mindset themselves. Ive been looking at other resources too. Posted by: Michele | March 21, 2007 at 02:36 AM Well put, Michele.
