Where is sharing?

Remember

• Sharing knowledge is always voluntary, no one can ever be forced.

• We share knowledge when we have the right audience, that motivates us and creates the right context.

• Knownet alone is not the solution to the old problems of knowledge management

Knownet provides an environment in which people are likely to share.

Knownet…

• Make the tools of knowledge production accessible to everyone

• Make the tools of knowledge distribution available to everyone

• Connects supply and demand

Tools focused on people

Let’s end with a quote…

"You can't manage knowledge - nobody can. What you can do is to manage the environment in which knowledge can be created, discovered, captured, shared, distilled, validated, transferred, adopted, adapted and applied."
