I wrote down the three comments below before attending Arthur Shelley’s Masterclass on KNOWledge SUCCESSion based on the book by the same name.
And after attending, I now feel have a better understanding on the strategic level of what is missing and where the opportunities lie to make KM and PM work together.

If, not where are the gaps? Are they around the knowledge being shared?
KNOWledge SUCCESSion for me is a way of integrating and formalizing Knowledge Sharing through an organisation.
And Arthurs Roadmap helps put this in place.
In a simplistic form the road map looks at

So often we struggle to get to a common language between different ways of working, be it project management, IT, organizational development, HR etc.
So, having a road map or a structure to use is helpful. Especially with a standard being developed for Knowledge Management Systems by the ISO.
This could be a game changer regarding Knowledge Management in organisations.
As I get more into this topic area, I will share more of what I have seen and where I need to learn more.
I suppose I should finish with a quote from Psychology Today and an article called Massively Intelligent.
