12:40: Radical KM, Specifically “Creativity: The Missing Piece of The KM Puzzle READ MORE & WATCH VIDEO
Stephanie Barnes, Chief Chaos Organiser, Entelechy

13:10- 13:20: Q&A SESSION

Stephanie Barnes, Chief Chaos Organiser, Entelechy

Radical Knowledge Management advocates that creativity, specifically arts-based interventions, is the missing piece of the KM puzzle. Most people treat KM like it is a wired computer network: they can see all the bits and pieces (documents and repositories are the servers, cables, and desktop computers) but the real value in in going wireless–tablets, phones, and laptops and that is Radical KM; creativity is like wifi. Creativity, like going wireless, allows people the flexibility of looking at the world from someplace different, it enables innovation, and challenging the status quo.

Doug Kalish, Head of Employee Experience and Knowledge Management, Grant Thornton LLP, USA

Does your knowledge organization struggle with cumbersome, time consuming and ineffective knowledge capture and sharing processes? Intelligent use of modern, configurable technologies can transform knowledge flows and reimagine the knowledge worker experience in a matter of weeks instead of months or years for custom development.

At Grant Thornton, we have orchestrated simple, modern and secure knowledge flows by leveraging low-code/no-code solutions, analytics and smart design principles. By focusing on the employee experience and right uses cases, we have several practical and high impact knowledge flow transformation stories we can learn from as a community.
