Strategic Knowledge Sharing Practices
OK, I'm trying to work out some ideas and I need your help. With the assistance of a slideshare show, here is what I'm thinking about. I am looking for a way to both strategically position the value of knowledge sharing in an organization (possibly as part of "knowledge management" but it fits in lots of slots in an org), AND create a framework for organizing and sharing KS methods in practice. What do you think? Thanks to Anecdote for the initial ideas.Tags:

Nancy,
As I view it, the framework needs structure to support the domain and community element. This includes reinforcement like education, training, and etc. to improve the practice.
Moreover, the strategic value of knowledge sharing is found in its meaning - the premise, leadership plays a great role in here. The meaning could empower the people and encourage them to make a difference. And the benefits are limitless.
Hope this could help.
Kind regards,
Bong
Nancy, this ties directly to my work on informal learning. Ping me when you have time. All the best.

Hi Nancy,
Two questions:
Storytelling. How could you use the ambivalence of storytelling to draw people to essential topics and information and how could it be used to overcome the issue of different jargon/tagging, so that same issues/different wording can find each other?
How is the understanding of the need for info sharing strenghtened? In war the need for sharing info is clear. But what if no pressing matters seem at hand. What incentive can people stimulate to share info? A working model is a step, but not the step to overcome this issue, i think. Floris
Hi Nancy, the post you referred to isn't really a framework but just something I've noticed. That is, when you ask different organisations about their objectives for improving how knowledge is used in their organisations, they tend to say the same thing. This incomplete list (it doesn't say too much about information management) is something I present to an organisation as a smorgasbord of possibilties from which I get them to choose three to focus on for a year. Then I get them to implement our Three Journeys approach (which is more like a framework) described here: http://www.anecdote.com.au/archives/2007/05/knowledge_strat_3.html
I would love to hear what Jay is thinking on this topic. I loved his book on Informal Learning.
This is great stuff, everyone. I am preparing a new blog post to incorporate your thinking... standby!
jay, maybe you, Shawn and I can convene a conversation soon?
Hi Nancy
I am interested in starting a KS framework in my organisation, but there is so much out there and I really have no idea where or how to start. I would love any help from anyone out there who has that already in their org. and some details on how it works and how you manage it. Thanks Chandi
