Upcoming KM Chicago: Tools & Techniques for Knowledge Retention

KM Chicago will host Tools & Techniques for Knowledge Retention: UOP’s KM Initiative in Action on May 10th. The speakers are from UOP's library and knowledge management function. Hope to see you there!

Is it possible to keep essential knowledge from leaving the company as experts change jobs and approach retirement? Members of the UOP KM Core Team will present a review of the techniques & tools they are using to facilitate Knowledge Retention. They’ll discuss results from their Knowledge Continuity pilot program in 2004 and plans for expanding elements of that program in 2005. In addition, they’ll share some of their methods to help business units prioritize knowledge retention projects, show examples of knowledge maps in use at UOP, and talk about new retention techniques that will be piloted soon.
