Knowledge is the fuel of Innovation.
Fuel your innovation
Knowledge and imagination are the fundamental drivers of innovation in organizations and are inseparable in high-performance companies.
Dave Pollard said:
“Innovative organizations are constantly scanning broadly for new ideas that can be adapted for innovative purposes. Their ‘information professionals’ job is to ‘make sense’ of the information from both primary (interviews and surveys) and secondary (Internet and information media) sources. These organizations share what they learn as a matter of course, in the knowledge that sometimes brilliant innovations come from serendipitous learnings. And these organizations engage their customers in continuous dialogue, to co-develop solutions through a knowledge exchange of needs and ideas.” (ref)
At TomKeen we consider that the information pyramid has been disrupted by the Internet and access to information doesn’t mean power and control anymore. Also, with the emergence of data science and other data mining techniques, information is flowing in real time and drives AI machines and automated decision. Understanding what is really going on has become more important and essential that ever.
We design knowledge and empowerment activities for organizations based on 3 basic principles:
- Relevant information is everywhere, it just waits to be harvested
- A good decision is always based on good data
- A knowledge-sharing organization is more innovative and more efficient
For example:
- Lectures and conferences on latest trends and practices
- Research and data collection projects
- Business intelligence activities
- Observatories
- Employee empowerment
- Social Data management
