ISSUE IN BRIEF

Briefing Feb19 cover

Back in December, Briefing held its inaugural Knowledge Leaders event, and in this issue we follow up by asking exactly what’s on these leaders’ plates today. Tellingly, one firm says just 40% of the work is now what one might have called ‘classic’ KM a decade ago. Today, the collation, issuing and movement of knowledge around the firm is much more closely tied to the unfolding business of efficient project management and strategic pricing, best practice in collaboration for optimising business development, and even the design and rollout of new revenue streams. It can hardly be a surprise that some KM leaders feel they really have some claim to the keys of everyone’s favourite ‘i word’.
