- 1. “Message in a Bottle” Experience it, learn about it, and use it for mapping your knowledge KM Australia 2013 Alexandra Lederer 25 July 2013, Sydney Australia
- 2. Alexandra has over 6 years experience as an internal Knowledge Management Consultant at Amadeus, and over 7 years in the learning and development area. She has consulted within this large organisation to design knowledge management strategies and solutions, delivering uniformity across the business. Alexandra has a preference for a pragmatic approach and has designed and applied a number of tools that she is happy to share, including: knowledge mapping “Message in a Bottle”, “Best Practice Programme”, “Knowledge Cafés”, and “KM Measurement Framework”. She contributed to the pilot and adoption of Microsoft Sharepoint as a corporate collaborative platform but has always been keen to stress that “Sharepoint is just a tool” and that it takes more to make a successful community of practice. In her current position as Learning & Development Specialist at Genea, Alexandra enjoys implementing an innovative learning framework that blends traditional training and knowledge management concepts. She enjoys sharing her experience and has been invited regularly to KM conferences in Paris and Australia and as a visiting professor in KM & Change Management for a French business school.

- 3. What if you could find a quick and easy tool to help you: Identity skills and knowledge gaps among a group of people? Forge links between participants and enable effective networking? Identify subject matter experts as well as areas for expertise? Create a burst of energy during an event? What if you mastered a tool that would then help you: Design your knowledge management strategy? Support the building of a community of practice? Design the community’s activities, learning plan, FAQs and e-forum topics? In this hands-on workshop you will be able to experience the “Message in a Bottle” tool designed by Danone and adopted/adapted later by Alexandra Lederer in multiple situations at Amadeus. You will also receive valuable tips and tools to be able to run one of these activities yourselves in the future.
