A Foundation course in know-how for professional services and knowledge intensive organisations. Learn about fundamental theories of knowledge and knowledge systems, and the practical, commercial application of common tools and techniques. Learn top tips and strategies gathered over a decade in Knowledge work. Learn about the common barriers to knowledge sharing and how to tackle them.
Leave with the knowledge and tools to analyse knowledge flows within your organisation, develop the most effective ways to encourage knowledge sharing and re-use and start writing your knowledge strategy.
Learn from Helene Russell, the author of/contributor to 5 textbooks. After 10 years practising as a lawyer, Helene moved into Knowledge Management and, endlessly curious, has been building expertise in the field since 2006.
Suitable for anyone in a knowledge intensive organisation, but particularly useful for the legal and accountancy sectors.

Video: Positive Deviance
A collection of videos on Positive Deviance.
Positive Deviance (PD) is an approach to behavioral and social change based on the observation that in every community there are individuals or groups of people (so called Positive Deviants) whose behaviours and strategies enable them to find better solutions to problems than their peers even though they have access to the same resources and face similar challenges.
In the international development and health sectors, PD has been used to address issues as diverse as childhood malnutrition, neo-natal mortality, girl trafficking, school drop-out, female genital mutilation (FGM), MRSA infections in hospitals and HIV/AIDS.
