MESSAGE FROM
THE PROGRAM CHAIR
In a world where
eBusiness is crucial for success, KMWorld 2001 focuses on one of the key
drivers, knowledge management (KM). The conference provides a learning
and sharing environment for those who want world class management for their
organizations in the new digital economy.
KM is an ongoing
process and a journey of continuous learning and improvement. The competitive
nature of organizations and the need to learn as quickly as possible requires
individuals and organizations to focus on that which gives the most value
and return.
KM is expected
to produce tangible, definable business results and can do so only when
it is part of an organization’s “mission-critical” business processes.
As KM becomes strategically integrated into an organization’s structures
it becomes part of standard business processes, rather than a separate
process. KM applications also become embedded in the organization’s line
of business or operation. This conference provides examples, models, and
strategies for enabling KM within your organization.
KMWorld 2001 also
focuses on the equally important human and technology sides of KM, providing
many case studies of working KM initiatives. Our speakers share their experiences
and provide solid suggestions and ideas for others.
As David Snowden,
one of our keynote speakers, says, we are “gardeners, influencing and encouraging
self organization, allowing new and exciting meaning to emerge from the
interactions and intuitions of communities.” I hope you will join us in
Santa Clara for this stimulating learning opportunity.
