That’s what we call the “ Curse of Knowledge ”. With enough effort over time, you’ll break the dreaded Curse of Knowledge. Jargon ( noun) : Special words or expressions that are used by a particular profession or group and are difficult for others to understand. The English language is filled with shorthand. It’s an especially difficult language to learn because the way native speakers communicate is often colloquial.

There was no need to ensure that anyone else could use Idealware’s growing base of knowledge because I was the entire organization. Knowledge management has become an important part of Idealware’s evolution. The term “knowledge management” doesn’t mean a lot by itself, but it describes a powerful concept. Is the knowledge and content itself actually findable for staff members who don’t know exactly the right word or acronym to search for?

In the age of knowledge an organization’s learning capabilities constitute competitive necessity. Learning,” however, is not synonymous with mastery or passive knowledge. The most critical obstacle to bureaucratic organizations becoming competitive in the knowledge age is that they are not set up for the continuous, strategic, and probing mode of learning, experimenting, innovating and constantly adapting.

Consider how you can support more robust knowledge sharing. By providing your stakeholders with a dedicated place to share knowledge with one another, community building happens naturally. What is a knowledge sharing network? Knowledge is a lofty word. A robust knowledge sharing network might involve people sharing resources, best practices, worst practices, just-in-time information, quick tips, and deep thinking, all focused on a specific topic.

Yet, there's also an inverse relationship between the size of a list and your knowledge of its contacts. Building out an email list is a science; each factor from your subject line to the length of your email body, to the timing of your send can contribute to your list growth. But even a perfectly crafted email can underperform on a list that is not vetted for the authenticity, deliverability, and engagement of its email audience.

Much has changed since humanity acknowledged the word knowledge and started to classify the various subject matters into categories and taxonomies of learned disciplines. The definition of knowledge is outside the scope of this article because of simple reasons. I am not as qualified as the university professors, or librarians who pour their blood, toil, trouble, and tears into the understanding of knowledge and wisdom. What I do know about is what knowledge is online.

In the last post I talked about the difficulties we see organizations have in managing knowledge. In my experience, for information to be truly organizational knowledge, at the very minimum four things must be true: It must be written down so it cannot walk out the door. But you can turn that email into organizational knowledge if you put it where authorized users can see it, add to it, comment on it, and search for it.

And it's a significant story as your organization starts to think about knowledge management. We see lost knowledge gobbling up time and money in our own organization and in the offices of our clients all the time. And one major way knowledge is lost is that the documents in which the relevant knowledge can be found are not easily retrievable. So I suspect Phil's approach to knowledge management is going to become more popular in the next few years.
