Knowledge Management: Monitoring and Evaluation Methods

Knowledge management is an increasingly important ingredient in organizational strategies and plans.  Front line administrators and senior decision makers alike are faced with an ever-expanding array of data, information and knowledge.  It is one thing to establish knowledge management systems and practices, but how can you be sure they are working and producing the desired results?



This workshop explores the critical areas of measuring, interpreting, and analyzing results to ensure the continual improvement of knowledge management systems.  The goal of the workshop is to arm participants with both the understanding and the tools that will help them ensure that their knowledge management processes produce the intended results. In a knowledge management system tuned using these tools, not only will negative issues be addressed appropriately, but opportunities will be captured and collected for the mutual benefit of individuals and organizations.
