The topic of Knowledge Management is, for many , closely related to Innovation. And one reason for a rise in interest in KM is because it has become an imperative for both private and public organisations to innovate to remain relevant in the highly competitive and fast changing modern world. At the next meeting of the Society we welcome Eric Spain as our speaker and his topic Innovation. Eric’s talk also links nicely to Professor Dr. Wilkesmann’s speech to the September meeting of the Society . She touched on the concept of Ignorance Management and Eric takes the discussion further and proposes that one means of creating valuable knowledge out of ignorance is via Innovation.
Further details on the talk and the speaker can be found below.
The meeting will be held at our usual venue on Thursday 3 Nov Conference Room 2, 22/F, United Centre 95 Queensway (Admiralty MTR Station).
The event is free for members of the HKKMS and HK$200 for non-members.
My colleagues and I look forward to seeing you at the meeting.
Max Boisot, a great loss to the KM field
It is with great sadness that one of the first pieces of news that I bring you is the death of Max Boisot earlier this month in the UK.
As many of you know, Max presented on two occasions to the HKKMS, the first of which was to a small group of corporate members at the FCC in December of 2009. Many of you though will remember him as the keynote presenter at our Conference in March 2010. We have a recording of that talk and will look to make it available on this site in the near future.
