We really need to talk about… knowledge management as a profession - Free Event
Knowledge management (KM) is maturing rapidly. Is now the
moment in time, the inflection point, for accreditation and
recognition of the KM professional?
In 2018 the first ever international standard on KM was
published. APM took the decision to include a comprehensive account of
KM in APM Body of Knowledge 7th edition. CILIP ramped
up its KM activities, including chartership for KM. These are all
signs that KM is reaching maturity and becoming recognised as a
discipline and an organisational practice.
What does this mean for KM professionals? What does it mean for
people who work with KM professionals? In this courageous conversation
event, Nick Poole - Chief Executive of CILIP, Sonia Ramadhian - CILIP
and Judy Payne - APM Knowledge SIG Co-Chair invite you to explore your
understanding of KM as a profession. How can professionals take
ownership of their professionalism? What is a profession, anyway?
Where do ethics and values fit in? How can people from different
professions, such as KM and project management, work together?
This small, interactive and stimulating conversation event will
address questions such as these and explore our collective
understanding of what it means to be, and work with, KM professionals.
Please don’t expect definitive answers. This event is one strand
of a conversation that we hope will lead to better understanding,
better practice, better KM and better projects.
The event will be recorded and key points from the conversation
used as the basis of a short animated video, designed to stimulate
wider discussion online. You can see our previous videos on the Courageous Conversation playlist.
