140802 -
140803 - Submitted ref DIT 1 0001 setting an objective to move toward a culture
140804 - of knowledge; linked to the record on 001105. ref SDS 60 0001
140805 -
140806 - Culture of knowledge was proposed in the letter to Pat Lincoln on
140807 - 001011 proposing education and research. ref SDS 55 MN7F
140808 -
140809 -       [On 001126 Henry commends SDS to project, does not mention
140810 -       culture of knowledge. ref SDS 66 0001
140811 -
140812 - Cited...
140813 -       ..
140814 -       Culture of knowledge needs to be supported by requiring
140815 -       project participants to associate their work with KM theory and
140816 -       practice, and to provide links to original sources. ref DIT 1
140817 -       0001  Mention that Doug called for this on 001025, ref SDS 57
140818 -       00VU, but do not provide a link on this.
140819 -
140820 -           [On 001115 cited this idea in letter to team on defining OHS
140821 -           and DKR. ref SDS 63 GH4O
140822 -
140823 -           [On 001116 cited idea again. ref SDS 64 T69N
140824 -
140825 -           [On 001121 cited it again. ref SDS 65 0001
140826 -
140827 -           [On 001202 cited it again. ref SDS 67 6T4J
140828 -
140829 -       On 000326 he called on the team to use the project for
140830 -       performing KM to discover how to develop tools. ref SDS 31 5972
140831 -
140832 -            Do not expressly explain today that POIMS, NWO and other
140833 -            Welch publications explain KM theory and practice.
140834 -
140835 -            Alphabet technology is a difficult subject, so do not
140836 -            mention this in the letter.  It is covered in the record of
140837 -            the meeting. ref SDS 60 AE7L  Review on 001108 shows the
140838 -            rules of composition support traditional information, and
140839 -            SDS provides extended rules for a culture of knowledge.
140840 -            ref SDS 62 K5WL
140841 -       ..
140842 -       Doug's legacy can be preserved by linking his work into
140843 -       the record of daily work. ref DIT 1 M87J  This will ensure
140844 -       accurate understandings, and compliment awards he receives, per
140845 -       analysis on 001105, ref SDS 60 8621, which cites the notice by
140846 -       Pat Lincoln of a new award, on 001107. ref SDS 61 0001
140847 -
140848 -              [On 001121 submitted proposal for team to buy SDS.
140849 -              ref SDS 65 0001
140850 -
140851 -            This provides incentive to move toward a culture of KM.
140852 -
140853 -            Do not explain, and so reserve for future consideration,
140854 -            that Henry can provide leadership, as web master, by adding
140855 -            understanding and follow up, i.e., Communication Metrics,
140856 -            to project dialog.  Where correspondence does not reference
140857 -            KM theory and practice, and/or is not linked to original
140858 -            sources, the web master should notify of these omissions,
140859 -            provide an example of correspondence that falls within KM
140860 -            practice, and offer to provide support, and to help people
140861 -            participate constructively to grow the culture of KM, by
140862 -            linking to relevant portions of the record.  Also, explain
140863 -            there are a lot of other projects where people can
140864 -            contribute and make money, who do not wish to use KM.
140865 -
140866 -       ..
140867 -       SDS supports KM objectives. ref DIT 1 Z68H, and it is fun
140868 -       and effective, but do not include a cite to the letter on
140869 -       001004, ref SDS 52 6N9G, in order to avoid having too many
140870 -       links.
140871 -
140872 -       Explain need for training and support for people to use SDS.
140873 -
140874 -       Example of incorporating Doug's work is the explanation of
140875 -       training and support needed for using SDS, ref DIT 1 Z68H, which
140876 -       references the record on 000324 reviewing Doug's 1972 paper that
140877 -       cites Com Manager role for support, ref SDS 32 5256, and
140878 -       training. ref SDS 32 1530
140879 -       ..
140880 -       Let Henry know I looked at Elements of Style, ref DIT 1
140881 -       0E9I, reviewed on 001108. ref SDS 62 0001  This illustrates that
140882 -       a big part of KM is the ability to follow up on action items,
140883 -       which he discussed on 001105. ref SDS 60 KR5J
140884 -
140885 -            Creativity is a derivitive of KM explained in the record on
140886 -            001108, ref SDS 62 K5WL, which is not expressly set out in
140887 -            the letter to Henry today.
