It wasn't until some "names" or heavyweights began noticing, coined terms like E2.0, etc. that more people have begun wondering about the wholesale changes to knowledge work and how it is to be managed that are (in all likelihood) yet in front of us.<BR/><BR/>Hamel's book is not too bad. I'm sure many more books will be written about the issue(s).<BR/><BR/>Jon HusbandAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10124852.post-76566000421348263112008-04-23T09:11:00.000+10:002008-04-23T09:11:00.000+10:00I agree that enterprise 2.0 is different to KM as ...I agree that enterprise 2.0 is different to KM as it's a more bottom-up unmanageed process...and as you say you can still do KM techniques like SNA and storytelling without technology.<BR/><BR/>I think in the future the KM managers role will become more of a facilitator, coach, guide...<BR/><BR/>Will you need SNA if you have people connected in a social network...won't this show you the patterns.<BR/>I guess for this to work people need to use the technology.<BR/><BR/>Besides being a facilitator, moderator, maintenance work and perhaps story workshops...once an organisation is thriving in a web 2.0 ecosystem (utopian?)...what does the KM Manager do?<BR/><BR/>It seems their role will be less about managing knowledge, and more guiding and facilitating...I say this because if we have knowledge flow and conversations, we are constantly creating and finding information we desire...just like we experience the open web.<BR/>http://libraryclips.blogsome.com/2008/04/22/k-flow/<BR/><BR/>KM Managers will need to be more intune with interpersonal skills, change, culture...this is why I like the idea of KM being driven by the learning team, as they have more human qualities than other teams.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10124852.post-86232740785152761442008-04-22T23:24:00.000+10:002008-04-22T23:24:00.000+10:00I agree with what you have to say.

Perhaps the title of what I wrote should have been changed ... or another way to look at it I suppose is that the issues you unpack were alluded to in there, waiting to be unpacked as you have done ?<BR/><BR/>Jon HusbandAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
