Roundtable

Capturing know-how

June 22, 1999

The Montague Institute will hold a one-day roundtable at Mitre Corporation, Reston, Virginia, on June 22, 1999, to provide a forum in which participants can share information on this topic. This is not a training session, but an idea exchange for experienced practitioners.

Discussion questions:

  • What strategies work best to change behavior from information "hoarding" to information sharing?

  • What projects or applications are most likely to be "success stories" that effect change throughout the organization?

  • How can new tools and techniques make it easier for people to contribute their know-how?

  • How can support staff be trained to help busy professionals find the time to contribute to the knowledge base?

  • Are some disciplines more prone to information sharing? If so, what can be learned from them?

  • How does the "process" approach to information sharing differ from the "heroes" approach? When is one approach more appropriate than the other?

  • What are the most important things top management do to encourage information sharing?
