Which infrastructure project do you feel least comfortable about… • ? Cloudiest scope ?
? Most difficult to cost ? • ? Most intangible benefit case ?
Knowledge Management and Collaborative Working • a Blue Sky approach to • deliver the business REAL value presents…
Typical KM project • Big – Expensive – Long delivery times
All too commonly… • …they fail to hit the mark
Collaboration is NOT… • …a top down process
So how do we make sure… • …we’re heading in the right direction?
Navigate the right course: • Start with a VERY early pilot
Find a dynamic group who needs it the most • knowledge sharing adds most value when crossing disciplines & team boundaries
Dispell the myth • “ infrastructure is too monolithic to be agile ! ”
Rolling delivery schedule • Constantly delivering value & • Improving from real customer experience
Deliver tasty morsels • To people who can use and improve them • And who will then spread the ideas to others
People are the heart of the project – help them to love it and live it • Provide a social platform so people can share their tips, and comment on what others suggest • e.g. ways to manage your inbox, etc
KM is nothing new: .ourbiz.co.uk • Make the most of the knowledge we have
It doesn’t have to be expensive: • Ideas like: leave old camera phones in meeting rooms… • * Snap *Upload to photostore * Send links to colleagues
Collaboration can be simple: • Spread an understanding of the tools, even existing ones: • e.g. how to find a room with conference phone • or, how to check free-busy to pick meeting times
Make sure we keep it simple • Collaboration Tools fill the gaps when face-to-face communication is not possible • The more elaborate the tool, the longer it takes to use and the less effective the communication • Make it easy for people to move up the collaborative scale towards effectiveness and efficiency
And they all worked together… • … happily ever after
