Talk: Messy Coherence, the Reality of effective Knowledge Management
Properly understood knowledge management should be about improving the quality of
decision making and creating the conditions for innovation. In practice it has too often ended up as a technology
driven programme of codification and formal interactions that bears little
resemblance to the messy coherence of human interaction. This presentation will providea basic understanding of how humans make decisions, both individually and collectively as well as the nature of
systems and how they evolve over time. Those insights from natural (not social) science will then be applied to
knowledge management practice. A particular focus of the presentation will be on sense-making, defined as how
do we make sense of the the world so we can act in it? With that question comes a key question of sufficiency,
when do we know enough to act given that we will never have perfect knowledge. Using a broad range of cases
the presentation will argue for the need to balance codified knowledge with modern forms of apprenticeship and
as critically narrative forms of knowing. By focusing knowledge management on the needs to senior decision
makers as well as day to day operations we can increase its relevance andapplicability.
Workshop: Mapping Decisions, Mapping Knowledge
Support for decision making at all levels of an organisation is a key goal of effective knowledge
management. In this workshop participants will be introduced to a new technique for mapping the day to day
decision making at both
strategic and operational level. Decision mapping also creates flow model of information within the organisation
and provides the basic components for creating a dynamic map of knowledge use within the organisation. These
maps linked to decision needs provide a focus for early win knowledge projects with clear objectives that directly
impact on known issues and problems. This approach shifts knowledge
management from being a support operation to a strategic tool in the organisation, directly impacting on current
issues and problems. Participants in the
workshop will gain both practical tools and methods as well as a sound understanding of how to use knowledge
to support management under conditions of uncertainty. It will show how to focus on creating a resilient and
sustainable infrastructure to support knowledge flow within the organisation.

Talk: Co-creation as a breakthrough approach in Knowledge Economy
This presentation will address emerging models of co-creation, and how they can be used for product, service
and experience creation. Co-creation will be compared and contrasted with collaborationcooperation andcrowdsourcing. Knowledge management makes contributions to organizational growth not just through
internal knowledge sharing but external cross-industry knowledge flows as well.
The following case-studies will be presented:
1. Telecom industry: In order to compete successfully in Russian telecom market, government company
Rostelecom (4 in the industry) initiated co-creation project. The project is very market focused and shows
how co-creation using both KM and innovation approach influence on product development and sales.
2. Legal industry: How to manage knowledge to reduce costs and deliver legal service to a client 24/7 within
1 min? In this case study we will illustrate how the small legal company has developed from little firm withhundreds clients to a medium business with hundred thousand clients. All that happened with a help of good
Knowledge Management, self-learning cloud system and special train courses for the lawyers and sales
department. The company also learned how to deliver knowledge very fast on demand within 1 min and solve
any situation client comes across. You will know the hints and tips and all key successful factors that led to the
result.
3. Finance industry: To compete well in constant changes the bank together with insurance company started
KM project connected with collaboration and co-creation. Now they manage their relationship and
knowledge within their suppliers and customers. They allow clients to influence on their product line. Withinsocial network lots of innovative products and different mobile application are developing together with their
customers.

Talk: Why effective Knowledge capture & retention matters: a case study
Increased focus on cost containment and a drive for greater flexibility has resulted in many people relocating orretiring. There is a growing awareness that outgoing officials take more than just their presence; they take years
of experience and the stories that have helped shape the organisations DNA; and they take their networks often
the most valuable resource.
Leaders often say after a crisis, we will learn lessons. Can those lessons be traced back to downsizing or failure
to pass on knowledge of a process when relocating? How many people get hired back as consultants because
of a burning platform issue and they have the knowledge on how to tackle it?
This presentation will demonstrate how a major UK Government organisation set about:
ensuring new joiners hit the ground running in the shortest time possible by equipping them with the rightknowledge and information
transitioning staff into new roles so that when they are reassigned they have sufficient time and access to the
right knowledge and information
capturing experience and knowledge from staff coming up for retirement, whose job might be disappearing
or who are leaving so that their knowledge (and networks) are not lost.
It will draw on an assignment and capturing and exploiting corporate knowledge programme developed and
delivered by Paul J Corney.

Workshop: In Light of the New Lineaments of Global Knowledge-based Economy, How KM Fosters
Innovation in New Organizations?
In recent decades, the world witnessed enormous developments and changes in different fields and one of
the most important changes is shifting towards knowledge economy. Knowledge is the basic production
resource for the economy and this resource is more important than other material resources as knowledge
has become a keynote factor in generating wealth and achieving welfare worldwide.
Due to these developments in global economy which were reflected in the inputs and outputs of different
organizations, it was necessary to have a similar development on management and administrative notion.
Big data and knowledge come to the organization and, in return, the organization seeks to acquire these
data and knowledge. Thus, an effective device that organizes, manages and administrates this essential
resource is inevitable in order to enable the organization from innovation and precedence in competition
and to last in a time where those that have more knowledge and utilize it properly only last.
In this workshop, we will review some basic concepts for KM style and innovation and will explain the
impacts and relationship between KM and innovation in new organizations. Well also demonstrate the
increasing role of KM in enabling new organizations from development, growth, lasting and continuity in
the world of business.

Talk: Fostering Innovation-driven Entrepreneurship in Middle East
Case Study: Arab Science and Technology Foundation
What if Arab countries were producing as many fast-growing, innovative companies as the United States, with
the same level of global impact? If Arab countries were registering as many patents linked to emerging technolo-
gies as Chinese individuals and companies? If the culture of entrepreneurship in Arab countries were as robust
and ambitious as: that of Israel? What impact would this have on Arab countries economy and society?
in this Keynote we will present, the answer of these questions, the challenge of lagging Arab countries perfor-
mance with regard to the regions innovation capabilities, the conditions for scalable entrepreneurship, And how
we in this part of the world can overcome these challenges, so the Arab countries would be attracting top talentfrom all over the world, even drawing the best minds from Silicon Valley. And, perhaps most importantly, Arab
country would be a significant source of jobs in future-oriented sectors, helping and inspiring jobseekers to
constantly upgrade their skills to take part in the next Arab success story.
Arab Science and Technology Foundation will be presented as case study, on how to contribute to Arab compet-
itiveness and growth by encouraging a robust environment of ambitious, serial entrepreneurs who envisage,
create and scale innovation-driven ventures.

Workshop: Unlocking the true value of Knowledge Management: identifying and assessing your organ-
isations Knowledge Assets
We have SharePoint, we already do Knowledge Management is a phrase often spoken by senior management
when describing their organisations KM activity. And while the practice of collecting and storing what an
organisation writes down is important for effective
information and records management it overlooks the true value contained in an organisations Knowledge
Assets.
Todays knowledge worker faces a challenge conducting an assessment (audit) of their Knowledge Assets. Theemergence of social tools, alongside intranets, electronic document and records management systems, and
transactional legacy systems, not to mention a continued reliance on email for communication and storage
makes it difficult to identify what an organisation knows, who knows it, and where its kept.
This workshop will demonstrate how to:
scope a knowledge assessment (audit) and identify key stakeholders;
conduct a knowledge assessment and map the organizations key knowledge assets;
compile a diagnostic report with recommendations; use techniques for getting stakeholder engagement throughout the process; and
benchmark the results and set up a framework for ongoing measurement.
It will draw on assignments conducted by Paul J Corney in Asia, Caribbean and The Middle East.

Talk: Leadership, Learning and Knowledge Management
Harnessing knowledge remains critical for workforce competitiveness and organizational success, as complexity and
unpredictability engulf organisations. If as leaders, manager and workers, we do not know what we know, if we do not know
what we do not know and/or if we think we know all there is to know, chances are we will not be able to compete effectively.
Success in knowledge management (KM) was traditionally about systems, technologies and platforms. Today, KM is
everybodys problem but no ones direct responsibility. A closer study of KM suggests that it is increasingly about getting the
balance right in structural and behavioral changes within organisations. Today, KM must work in concert with leadership
learning, and growth strategies. Tomorrow KM will be about sustainable organizational development (OD).
This presentation will walk the audience through why effective KM requires re-balancing leadership and learning within
organisations, and how these relate to the ancient Aristotelian philosophy of Ethos, Pathos and Logos. Originally posited as a
frame for argumentation, the intellectual, emotional and physical aspects that concern knowledge creation, transfer and
integration are examined. Often the end result of effective KM is in observations, insights and lessons learnt. Deductive and
inductive reasoning involves making an effective, persuasive reason to back up ones claims. Seeking and giving reasons is the
heart of argumentation, and the heart of change in organisations.
This presentation will conclude with the argument that KM is part of Organisational Development, as are leadership and
learning.
Workshop: Harnessing the Power of Organisational Storytelling
We work in hierarchical organisations. Depending on which part of the world or country our organization is based, and operates
in, there are values and beliefs that management and workers hold as important. There are also deep experiences, observations
and expectations that our employees accumulate that are valuable to the organization. Most times these go untapped for many
reasons.
These cultural and hierarchical aspects combine to create difficulties for many of us at work, as we often find ourselves
struggling to communicate what we know, and surface what we do not know, better. As many organisations grapple with how
to create, transfer and integrate knowledge better among workers, organisational storytelling is becoming increasingly popular
as a Next KM practice. This day workshop will surface its potency, and its possibilities for us as learning professionals
HR managers and/or knowledge practitioners, as to how we can utilize story building and storytelling techniques to share what
we know, and seek what we do not know, as we design the knowledge spaces in our work environment.
Participants in this hands - on workshop will be introduced to the 251 and the STOP organizational storytelling , models
created by the presenter. Two articles explaining these models will also be provided.
