Knowledge Capture Certification (Online) - New Students

Format: Online, for New Students - Welcome!

An In-Depth Study of the Successful "Knowledge Jam" Method.

Introduction

Does your organization suffer from "reinventing the wheel," or knowledge silos?

Knowledge Jam is a process for using facilitated conversation to get out hidden know-how from teams and experts, and to put it to work in a way that ensure it goes to use. It is built around the disciplines of facilitation, conversation,
and translation, and draws on the practices of organizational psychology, innovation, and strategy.

Kate Pugh will take students through the process, and we will explore how
Knowledge Jam can help when Knowledge is at risk, such as in any corporate
change, such as executive transitions, merger integrations, moving virtual,
and expansion.

We'll also learn how to successfully set up and rationalize a Knowledge Jam program for your own team and organization.
