Hi everyone

I know this is short notice but in the past members of QKM have expressed interest in meeting / interacting with my KM students.  Next Tuesday (5-8pm in Z205) I am running a Living Case Study.  My guest will be Grant Leslie from Water Services Authority Association.  He is flying up from Sydney to present this.   He only agreed to this yesterday – that’s why the timing is a bit tight.

As the semester end nears I run a couple of living case studies where org representatives stand up in front of my class and present a KM problem they are experiencing.  I keep it fairly structured – it goes like this:

1)       Guest presents problem (20 mins)

2)       Teams review their KM tools / techniques / frameworks and formulate 2 questions each for the presenter (15 minutes)

3)       Q&A (2 questions max per team)  20-30 minutes

4)       Teams prepare initial advice (20 mins)

5)       Teams present 2-3 minutes their initial advice and suggestions for further reading

6)       Over the next week teams write up 3-4 pages on their advice (assessable item) – wouldn’t expect the industry visitors to do this

So my invitation is to any industry KM practitioners who would like to come and participate as a team – you can take on my post-grad and under-grad students (several of whom are pretty sharp!)  You never know, you might pick up a trick or two.

These are very popular sessions with my industry participants who in the past have included Cory (last year) from Suncorp; Hewlett-Packard; BDO Kendalls; Qld Dept of Transport; QUT International; McCormick Rankin Cagney; RTB Consulting and a couple of others.

I can probably accommodate one team of about 6-8 industry KM practitioners.  If you are interested please drop me an email.

Regards

Greg
