Modern knowledge management in practice

Modern knowledge management in practice | Collaborationweb | Scoop.it

Knowledge is power! However, today this is a truth with modification since knowledge becomes outdated much faster than before. Consequently, you will gain less if you save the knowledge in your own hideouts. The challenge for companies and the public sector but also schools is to manage to translate individual knowledge into organizational awareness and then to manage the knowledge-base with constant updates, focus on usability and pedagogy.

A brain region sensitive to social rank. | BrainFacts.org Blog | Collaborationweb | Scoop.it

Our social environment is hierarchical and we can all guess roughly where we and others lie in this hierarchy. It rarely needs to be stated explicitly – a boss does not need to remind his employee that he’s the boss every day. Yet hierarchy acts in the background, like an invisible hand, modifying almost each of our interactions. It makes us more or less polite, familiar, or audacious with those people for whom each attitude is more or less appropriate.

Connected leadership by Harold Jarche

Connected leadership by  Harold Jarche | Collaborationweb | Scoop.it
Ana Cristina Pratas's curator insight, April 30, 12:18 AM

How is leadership in a hyper-connected workplace different? It’s been an ongoing conversation here, as this comment by Stephen Downes, on leadership as an emergent property, provides a counterpoint to certain popular leadership literature, especially “great man” theories.


‘Leadership’ is the trait people who have been successful ascribe as the reason for their success.
It is one of those properties that appears to be empirically unverifiable and is probably fictional.

donhornsby's curator insight, April 30, 7:15 AM

(From the article): ‘Leadership’ is the trait people who have been successful ascribe as the reason for their success.


It is one of those properties that appears to be empirically unverifiable and is probably fictional.

Chuck Sanders, PhD's comment, April 30, 8:17 AM
Viewing leadership as a behavior, and not a trait, is more appropriate for the 'hyper-connected' and dynamic workplace. What most organizations need today is leadership behavior from more than just the executives and managers. Therefore, a more useful perspective of leadership is about influence, where a person with a change idea has the courage to influence others to accept the change idea and act on it.

Gimme The Cheese That Matters: Why The World Badly Needs Good Curators

Gimme The Cheese That Matters: Why The World Badly Needs Good Curators | Collaborationweb | Scoop.it

Nic take for curators...

Robin Good's curator insight, May 14, 6:05 PM



"Give me the cheeses that matter, offer me a wine list that's manageable. And put all the information that's raining down on us from cyberspace in a convenient, easy-to-handle form."


That's the essence and the relevance of content curation in today's world.

To put it down in such simple and clear words is Simon Kelner on the Independent, who provides some great real-world example and reminds us later of the total non-personality of search engine results,


He shares this wonderful short story: "Opposite my office is one of Britain's most celebrated cheese shops. Once through its doors, you are greeted by the cheeses of the world.


The varieties of sheep's cheese are in double figures, and there's Cheddars of all sizes and provenance.


It is completely over-facing, to the extent that a colleague of mine has been to the shop three or four times and has walked out without buying anything, so baffled was he by the complexity and range of the offering."


He concludes his article by writing: "I'd like the sense that someone of taste and discretion and experience has already whittled down the choices.


(That's the problem with search engines, by the way - no taste!)


The world needs editing..."



To the point. Great examples. Easy to understand. 7/10

The world needs editing - and yes, I use that word advisedly. Give me the cheeses that matter, offer me a wine list that's manageable. And put all the information that's raining down on us from cyberspace in a convenient, easy-to-handle form. Sorry, I never intended to be a defence of newspapers!
