Knowledge Strategy Intensive

Length of workshop: One day

General Overview:
A true systems view of knowledge and value means rethinking business models. It means redefining value to include intangibles, implementing intangible scorecards and indexes, and using business modeling methods that link these metrics to continually evolving real activities.

In this workshop, Verna Allee provides an overview of the three levels of knowledge:

  1. Operational Knowledge, in which we connect knowledge to those who need it and answer the question How can we codify and share knowledge of routine tasks?
  2. Tactical Knowledge, which connects people to share good ideas, and answers the question How can we better create, use and apply our knowledge?; and
  3. Strategic Knowledge, which connects knowledge to the business model, and focuses on the question How does knowledge create business value? with emphasis on the top level of knowledge: strategic knowledge. Verna Allee will introduce the concept of value networks, and explain why intangibles are real assets that accumulate as a result of specific, observable, manageable activities.
