Knowledge Management starts when the company (and why not the country?) acknowledges the fact that knowledge is the new capital to compete in a "championship" that gets tougher and tougher.
- Yes, it is managing the knowledge already available at home.
- But it's also widening it, updating it, making of it your "repository of surprises". Buying knowledge is fine, but not enough; developing new knowledge is also a must.
Imitating or spying the competition won't suffice anymore, mainly because competition also spies on you. Being intelligent means creating differences
Piling up the highest stack of concepts and knowledge is not the most precise account of success. The company (and, similarly, the country) needs that quality of thinking that processes and transforms this knowledge into surprises, products, services and artfulness. That's where you come in, when empowered by the methodology of Creategics, that enables intelligence to work out infinite reconfigurations of thinking. You, whoever you might be, in the public or the private sectors, entrepreneur, executive or even a newly graduate who foresees the future.
Being empowered with a thinking that doesn't get fooled by the already known.
Developing radar-like intelligences, ready to not only spot what's in progress but also anticipate the future.
This quality of thinking is the collection of attitudes and abilities that not only manages the available knowledge, but also "manufactures" some new one.
If you are responsible for managing or generating knowledge, this is the time to invest in you, in your career, in your company, in your country.
