Data – raw factsInformation – data in contextKnowledge – information with experience the Hunch, IntuitiveWisdom – Knowledge with a Cultural, Moral and Philosophical contextDIKW HierarchyDataInformation is data in contextInformation with context and experience is knowledge
There are two men acknowledged to be fathers of KM….Michael Polanyi explored the nature of knowledge and put forth that there are two types of Knowledge….
International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems ICD 9CPT codesCreate, Capture, Share, Store, Apply,…KnowledgeThe discipline of enabling individuals, terms and entire organizations to collectively and systematically capture, store, create, share and apply knowledge, to better achieve their objectives. Rob Young
To be successful at KM you need: 1. A good understanding of human behavior and psychology. Most of the problems I have dealt with in KM over the last five years have almost always in some way been related to human behavior or psychology.2. A good understanding of how knowledge and experience is transferred between people and under what conditions.3. A high degree of common sense to ensure practical application of techniques we know that work which allow for more rapid transfer of both knowledge and experience between people.4. To be computer literate enough to understand how IT technologies can be applied to enable rapid knowledge transfer, when and where appropriate, but not over awed by it. Too many people are overly fascinated by online social media technologies but fail to see the limitations, downsides and negative impact such technologies often have on human relations and communication.

How do you manage to keep track of all the data, information and knowledge you need?

So we have all these pools of information and we have to make sense of them, find what we need when we need it and use it to manage out relationships with friends (who will not talk to whom? Who should I not ask to the wine tasting? Who will not enjoy a night at the stake house?)If this is what we as individual are facing – what is it like for organizations….Now we need to take into account legal requirements for discovery, Staying comparative,
First I want to say this poster is regarding electronic documents only, Our paper document have a high level of control and compliance
The Wasson Center had recently experienced increasingly high demands on time and resources caused by internal program growth. These factors have resulted in their scheduled programming and workload doubling in the past year. Subsequently they began looking for ways that would allow them to continue quickly creating and executing high quality Standardized Patient (SP) activities within these new constraints. It was decided to explore the adoption of a Knowledge Management (KM) approach to SP Case creation, management and storage in the hope they could create a uniform structure that would make their documents more accessible while improving time management and reducing information loss caused by employee turnover.A KM approach would allow them to standardize processes via the use of templates, case file naming convention, version control, document control, taxonomy and the creation of a records retention schedule which includes electronic documents. Additionally the process was envisioned as creating a framework for future KM implementation. This project outlines the initial document management assessment and the preliminary identification and implementation of a KM approach to the Center's core documents.

With over 200 active SP Case Scripts updated continually, tailored for diverse demographics, and versioned for different levels of learners, the Wasson Center looked at the benefits to be gained from the adoption of a Knowledge Management approach to document management. It was decided to survey SP Educators to see how they addressed the issues.
The ease of creating and updating documents with word processing software combined with inexpensive hard drive storage has created a situation in which a Digital Landfill of documents becomes an increasing risk. http://www.businessweek.com/managing/content/mar2010/ca20100326_853735.htm

KM focuses on the way in which individuals & organizations create, learn, store and share knowledge. It is our hope that collaborative creation, learning, storage and sharing of knowledge will result in added value to our organization.
While software tools may help the process,
To better address concerns outlined in the Center’s document management assessment a staff workgroup was created. Led by management, this group will research, explore and implement Knowledge Management inspired solutions to the Center’s documents beginning with our SP Cases.
