Hi Matt,

Seconding Joitske and Ewen, I'd say with all of these grand terms, including "organizational culture" it is important to continue asking "so what do you mean by this in practice". If you are a change agent, either as external consultant or internally, you will often have a client or supervisor who tells you your assignment in vague buzz words - such as: "develop a more collaborative/innovative etc. organizational culture". Sometimes because they don't want to take responsibility, but more often because they don't quite know what they want or how to formulate concretely and precisely what they want. So your first task is to clarify with the person who came up with this, what exactly they are talking about, what are concrete examples of "when this happens we tend to do that" that they are not happy with. What would be some concrete storylines they'd be happier with? And once you are at it, in this same clarifying conversation you can explore the concrete actions and interventions they have tried out in the past to get there, what worked, what didn't, how they assess the reasons for how it went. And when you are done clarifying your mandate with the responsible person, you can check if these observations, frustrations, aspirations and attributions defined by the leadership resonate at all with people on different levels of the organization.

This leads to an important point and that is history. The organizational culture is not just something that happens today but something that is like the famous Chinese hundred year old soup (or was it 1000 years?) where you have a pot on the fire in the middle of the village and people add ingredients every day as they have them available. They also eat every day from it, but never empty the pot completely, so some of this soup may well be 100 or 1000 years old. While you will never be able to extract a single ingredient added 70 years ago, each action taken by/in the organization in the past adds to the organizational culture as you find it today. And you will never get the same rich flavor by pouring out the whole content of the pot, scrubbing it down and preparing an instant soup out of a packet. A lot of people who want to change organizational culture only look at: What are the negative things about the culture we have at the moment, where does it hold us back, what are cultures of other organizations which we would prefer? Looking at your organizational culture with a historical perspective can allow you to understand that each cultural practice was once started with a good reason and if they persist, there has to be a strong reason in the organizational logic why it is still there. Take highly bureaucratic cultures. Often we see them as a pain and an impediment to getting stuff done. But they also provide stability even in situations with high staff turnover, standardization of standard procedures frees time and resources to solve non-standard issues and bureaucracy comes with the promise that everyone will be treated following the same rules, no matter their informal networks or personal cunning (now, whether the promise is always fulfilled is a different question).

So to be able to do something about persistent cultural practices which you do want to change, start by asking people with different perspectives about what the drivers behind it's persistence are: "What are positive effects for the organization, individuals or departments within it or outside actors which come from doing things the way we do them now (give concrete example here)?" "What would who lose and gain if we started doing it this way instead of that?" Digging into this will allow you two things: Reformulate your mission as you understand what should be preserved and what should be changed. And get an idea of who you have to interact with how to get this preservation and change started.

One last thing: Culture is not something you can "make" but rather something that develops and grows. Just as it doesn't help to pull at a flower to try to make it grow faster. So what I see as most promising is to plant a few seeds, pilot a few changed procedures or behaviors in different corners of the organization, nurture them and see what the effect is. Often showing that "it" (whatever it is) can be done in one corner of the organization and supporting "field visits" (any kinds of interactions between those who doubt and those who have achieved it) is the strongest organic approach to culture change

Have fun at the training, Cheers, Eva

Failure Culture, e.g. medical doctors and personnel report, comment and advise anonymiously on failures www.jeder-fehler-zaehlt.de

Failure Culture:• ignore show / recognize• suppress discuss … analyze• punish reflect … learn …

innovate• act, e.g. KillFee of Merck/USA

• in Aging Societies: older workers/experts may fail, too

There were three root causes that we uncovered and addressed with our new knowledge base:

Sustainability. Our old product knowledge base was too hard to maintain. We had to find a framework that would make it easy to add information on new products and maintain the content we already had.

Accessibility. It was just too hard for people to find what they were looking for. We had to address issues with search and discovery and target content to more specialized roles.

Credibility. When people found content, there was no way for them to know if it was true. There was not enough to distinguish the content the documentation team maintained in the knowledge base from all the other content on the wiki. We had to take steps to set this content apart.

uWIKIs: general properties and lessons learned

everybody may read, modify, add, … everything from everybody

any contribution is signed by name

any version can be re-established

Lessons Learned:

SIEMENS applies wikis since many years useful in scenarios with fast transparent information exchange, e.g. meeting reports in projects, feature lists in product development or FAQ management in service organizations not useful for structured strongly formalized information, e.g. for process audits, financial processes …

AUDI has many wikis for CoP‘s, project teams, organizational bodies … a faciltator („wiki gardener“) is very useful to help with structures and clean-up

ADVANTEST uses Confluence as basis for wiki, blogging / KM platform with >200.000 page views per month quality control not before but after publication (by colleagues) challenges: different languages and inter-cultural differences

Selecting a wiki platform, see e.g.: http://www.wikimatrix.org/ http://mashable.com/2008/12/31/wiki-resources/

Free online wiki services, see e.g.https://www.wikispaces.com/

Wikis work best when they solve a problem that is evident to most of a group. 

Wiki use needs to replace an existing work process, not add to work. 

Wikis need advocates and advertising. 

Seeding the wiki with valuable content helps jump-start the process; with a blank page, no one knows where to start. 

Gradual growth is fine, and starting small helps a core group of users become accustomed to the wiki (think pilot study). 

 A wiki that serves a niche need is okay; it does not need to be all things to all people.

… tweets that are informative or funny -- or, ideally, informative and funny -- evoke the best responses.

And tweets that contain old information, repeat conventional wisdom, offer uselessly de-contextual news, or extoll the virtues of the awesome salad I had for lunch today don't, ultimately, do much to justify themselves. 

So: Do be useful. Do be novel. Do be compelling. Do not, under any circumstances, be boring.

Today more organizations aspire to become a Social Business. Leading organizations – including 75 percent of the Fortune 100 – are transforming how they connect, collaborate and get work done using IBM enterprise social software.  

“Customers are increasingly assuming that all applications must be social,” said Vanessa Thompson, Research Manager, IDC Enterprise Social Networks and Collaborative Technologies. “IBM's focus on a core social networking platform to support application environments, such as Smarter Commerce and Smarter Workforce aligns well with this customer intent.” (2)

IBM's Social Business portfolio, including its industry leading IBM Connections and Smarter Workforce technologies, allow organizations to integrate social solutions with critical business applications and people-centric processes that empower employees, increase workforce productivity and deliver exceptional customer service.  Deployed on cloud  or on premises, these solutions also enable business leaders like the Chief HR Officer (CHRO) to attract and retain top talent when combined with social workforce analytics that ensure the organization has the skills and expertise to meet emerging market demands.

Nick Milton - I did some quick research the other day on "Glassdoor" - the salary comparison site. Here's a histogram of the salaries of the 40 "Knowledge Manager jobs I found: Median salary is about $70,000, but more interesting is the spread - from a minor pittance working anda charity, to over 140k working for aconsultancy.

I think this spread shows that"Knowledge Manager" is a poorlydefined job, just as "KnowledgeManagement" is a poorly definedterm. You could be a knowledgemanager and earn $40k, you couldbe a knowledge manager and earn$140k - it all depends on what youmean by knowledge manager.

Chief Knowledge Officer of NASA: Edward Rogers

Speaking about the repeated inability of knowledge management practitioners to apply lessons from previous attempts, Edward Rogers enumerates the five most common mistakes made by KM practitioners: (1) attempting to implement a KM system in a hurry, (2)designing KM to serve as the control unit, trying to manipulate people and making them behave in a manner in which they would not normally behave, (3) Allowing for inadequate time to develop a KM program peculiar to one's organization (which leads to blindly emulating KM practices from other organizations), (4) Selling KM with a dollar expectation in terms of RoI, and finally (5) Handing over KM to a CIO.

The top 7 are described here and listed below:http://www.nickmilton.com/2011/09/top-7-tips-for-knowledge-management.html

1. KM needs to be business-driven.

2. KM needs to be introduced as a management framework.

3. KM needs to address Pull as well as Push.

4. KM is a change process.

5. KM Must be embedded in the business.

6. KM needs not just high level support, but high level expectation.

7. KM needs to be delivered where the high value decisions are made.

That's one of the early findings from our Knowledge Management survey - a survey of nearly 400 kmers round the world. Some of these people had been in charge of KM programs that had folded, and we wanted to know, in these cases, what the reasons had been for the abandonment of Knowledge Management.

1) From the start make sure your Knowledge Management program is focused on delivering real business needs and objectives. Get this business-focus into your Knowledge Management strategy, and get the strategy signed off by senior management.

2) Have some idea of the size of the prize. Value your KM program - find out what it would be worth to the business if all staff had access to the knowledge they needed to make their key decisions.

3) Conduct some early proof of concept exercises. Prove that KM works in your context, and get early endorsement (ideally on camera) from your business customers.

4) Conduct some business-led pilots, designed to deliver measurable benefit. Get agreement from senior managers before-hand that if the pilots are successful and add enough value, KM will be endorsed from on high as "required behaviour"

5) Embed KM roles into the organigram, KM processes into the high-level operational processes, and KM technology into the technology suite. Weave KM so tightly into the fabric of the organisation that it can't be unwoven.

6) Present KM widely to the external world. Make your company famous for KM. Win a MAKE award. Get into a position where abandoning KM would be an embarrassment.

Increased use and user friendliness of collaboration platforms and social media

Decreased efforts to turn tacit knowledge into explicit knowledge (in form of guidelines, lessons learnt etc.), but increased network capacities to solve problems / challenges with peer inputs.

Continued trend to open up networks (from internal and partner inclusive networks, to global networks)

Increasing % of generation Y staff, which will impact on organizational culture

An increased demand / pressure to measure KM benefits and show the impact of KM (cost – benefit of KM activities)

What factors and trends will influence the way staff is working involved in development (knowledge) activities? source: http://dgroups.org/groups/km4dev-l/discussions/66b4f53c 2013-03
