TeamWork without Knowledge Management

Every task is performed differently

depending on who performs it.

When an improvement is identified it is slow

to spread among the team, or even lost.

If there is an external supplier, the cost of

switching requires a lengthy transitional

period.

TeamWork without Knowledge Management

Replacing members of the team is difficult,

requires a high level of effort or it is even

risky.

Holidays, attending events and courses,

sick leave, become stressing events for

the team to be avoided.

Audits are highly disruptive, as there

nothing is documented or archived.

Knowledge Management

Knowledge Management can be

implemented using Documents.

The type of Documents will normally be: Policies

Procedures

Forms

Templates

Agreements

CheckLists

Plans

Reports.

Knowledge Management

In order to use them effectively every type

and instance of Document should be easy

to create, update, distribute, archive and

find.

Standalone Documents unfortunately do

not make this easy at all.

Knowledge Management

Standalone Documents issues:

Create: How do you name it? Where

do you store it? What is the

relationship with the rest of the

documents?

Update: Does the update influence

where the document is stored, named

or the relationship with the rest of

docs? How do you retire the older

version? How do you kill local copies?

Knowledge Management

Standalone Documents issues:

Distribute: How do you make

everyone aware of the novelties?

Archive: When and where do you

store them? How do you identify older

versions?

Knowledge Management

Standalone Documents issues:

Find: How do you know if there is a

existing document that covers you

need?

Format: What should be the layout?

How do you get everyone to use the

same?

Knowledge Management

There is a better way:

Limit the use of Standalone

Documents

Use a Wiki.

Knowledge Management

Wiki Advantages:

Create: The name of every page

arises naturally from the context of

another page. No need to make a

decision of where to store it. The

relationship with the rest of the

documents is explicit by links.

Knowledge Management

Wiki Advantages:

Update: Updates are immediately

available, no need to retire older

versions, there are no local copies.

Knowledge Management

Wiki Advantages:

Distribute: Everyone accesses the

updated version without even thinking

about it.

Archive: Changes history is a built in

feature. Comparing versions is very

simple.

Knowledge Management

Wiki Advantages:

Find: Easy to follow links, easy to

search by content.

Format: Format is easy enough for

everyone to learn, difficult enough for

no one to get Gothic.

TeamWork with Knowledge Management

Every task is performed consistently.

Improvement are identified and quickly spread

among the team.

Minimal dependence on external suppliers.

Replacing members of the team is easy and fast.

More freedom for the work team, improving

motivation and performance, lowering rotation.

Audits become painless.

This is easy with a Wiki, difficult with

Standalone Documents.
