Knowledge is embodied in people gathered in communities and networks.
The road to knowledge is via people, conversations, connections and relationships.
Knowledge surfaces through dialog, all knowledge is socially mediated and access to knowledge is by connecting to people that know or know who to contact.
Quotations are extremely effective at capturing and concisely communicating thoughts and ideas. They can be inspirational but more importantly quotations can help us reveal and assess the assumptions, values and beliefs that underlie the ways in which we perceive the world.
I have compiled over 800 quotations and short excerpts on this website. It is an eclectic mix but most of them are inspirational or insightful in nature and relate to knowledge, learning or personal development in some form.
If you love quotations as much as I do then you may wish to register to have a quote e-mailed to you once a week or more frequently by clicking on the button below and completing the form.
What counts is intrinsic motivation, what matters is how you couple and evaluate personal identity when you hire, how you nuture and assist folks to strengthen their identities in the workplace. Never under estimate the 'pull' of leadership example and the need to model quality sharing behavior. This works faster, gives lasting results and puts the emphasis where it matters most, NOT the push of rewards, but the pull of indentity, the support of engagement and the bonds of belonging.
