  1. Mobilising knowledge for the next wave of sustainability Leigh Baker Balance3 & Jenni Goricanec The Wicked Innovation Practice

  2. Consultation in 4 stages • Two inputs • The next wave of sustainability • The next wave of KM • Conversation in groups around questions • Plenary

  3. Leigh’s The Knowledge Domain of Sustainability slides

  4. KM with a twist Mobilising Knowledge  • In the knowledge management arena we also see a shift to a different way of engaging. • In this consultation, we use the phrase “mobilizing knowledge” to indicate this shift

  5. KM Definitions • Many definitions of knowledge management emphasise “knowledge” as object(s) and the “management” of these. The “knowledge” exists “within an organization”, “embodied in individuals and/or embedded in organizations as processes or practices” (W) • More recently with the advent of the Web 2.0, the concept of Knowledge Management has evolved towards a vision more based on people, participation and emergence. (W)

  6. Several views of KM • Technocentric, • Organizational and • Ecological with a focus on the interaction of people, identity, knowledge, and environmental factors as a complex adaptive system akin to a natural ecosystem.

  7. Mobilising Knowledge • This term suggests that there is something different to be done, the emphasis shifts to connecting; it begs the question mobilising knowledge for what or why and then importantly in what context? • For us in this consultation it is within the context of sustainability. Not only of the material “stuff” – i.e. energy, water, waste but also of life on this planet including humans

  8. "The history of transformational phenomena – the Internet for example, or paradigm shifts in science, or the spread of new religion – suggests that transformation happens less by arguing cogently for something new than by generating active, ongoing practices that shift a culture's experience of the basis of reality" (Zander & Zander, 2000, italics added)

  9. Questions • What we want you to do is • Develop your own questions that you would need answered to be able to take on these ideas • We will attempt to answer some of these • In plenary • In the August session • And we will challenge you to begin to find your own answers, in your groups or individually
