KM SHOWCASE 2020 - Keynote Address - Zach Wahl
- 1. CONFERENCE VIEW AND KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT 2020 AND BEYOND March 4, 2020
- 2. ZACH WAHL FOUNDER AND PRESIDENT, EK @ZACHARYWAHL, @EKCONSULTING
- 3. WELCOME! Thank you for being here! #KMShow @KMInstitute
- 4. KEEP CALMAND KM ON • Transfer Knowledge, Not Germs. • No Handshakes, No Hugs. • Wash your hands like you just chopped a jalapeño and are about to put your contacts in.
- 5. A VIEW OF THE AGENDA
- 6. WHO WILL YOU HEAR FROM? A combined 490 years of Knowledge and Information Management experience. From organizations including USAA, Sodexo, Grant Thornton, World Bank, and RGP.
- 8. KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT INVOLVES THE PEOPLE, PROCESS, CULTURE, AND ENABLING TECHNOLOGIES NECESSARY TO CAPTURE, MANAGE, SHARE, AND FIND INFORMATION.
- 9. DECONSTRUCTING KM PEOPLE PROCESS CONTENT CULTURE TECHNOLOGY • Flow of knowledge through the organization. • Knowledge holders and knowledge consumers. • Understanding of state and disposition of experts. • Existence and consistency of processes. • Awareness of and adherence to processes. • Quality of processes. • State and location of content. • Consistency of structure and architecture. • Dynamism of content. • Understanding of usage (analytics). • Senior support and comprehension. • Willingness to share, collaborate, and support. • Maturity of “KM Suite.” • Integration with and between systems. • Usability and user- centricity. @ZACHARYWAHL, @EKCONSULTING
- 10. FIND CAPTURE ACT WHAT CAN KM DO FOR YOU? Create – Creating new knowledge and information. Capture – Moving from tacit to explicit, unstructured to structured, and decentralized to centralized. Manage - Guiding the sustainability and maturation of content, ensuring content becomes better over time instead of becoming bloated, outdated, or obsolete. Enhance – Making knowledge and information “better” over time rather than having it fall into disrepair. Applying metadata, comments, or linkages to other information in order to improve the complete web of knowledge. Find – Enabling the knowledge and information to be easily and naturally surfaced. Connect – Expanding the web of knowledge to include direct access and formation of connections with the holders of that knowledge. @ZACHARYWAHL, @EKCONSULTING
- 11. KM 2020 AND BEYOND
- 12. Demand for clear business value and return on investment in KM efforts. Clear understanding of Knowledge Management and Enterprise AI powered by ontologies and knowledge graphs.
