FUMSI Report: Folio on Knowledge Management
25th September 2009
"Looking back over decades of work helping organisations manage information and knowledge in myriad ways, I remain convinced that many would be aghast if they knew how expensive it is for an organisation to "get by" on knowledge workers' creativity and ability to fashion workarounds. At the same time, I understand the logic behind thinking "we're doing alright � I can't justify a 6-figure investment in KM". A first step for anyone in charge of knowledge related
operations is to take look at current business practices to assess the probable tradeoffs ... so as to lay the groundwork for an appropriate strategy."
