Information Management in a Changing Climate
In case you haven’t yet read it, the latest October 2018 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change summarises the imminent implications of global warming of 1.5C. It makes for sobering reading, especially when factoring in the American Psychological Association’s report with Eco America on the psychological impacts of climate change. Eco-anxiety. It’s a thing.

Thriving in a disrupted world
A belated write-up of my talk on Thriving in a Disrupted World at the Knowledge Management Australia 2017 Conference, which took place 1 to 3 August 2017.

Attendees and presenters were drawn from global private, public and third sector knowledge management practitioners and researchers including representatives from Australian Defence, NATO (Andy Anderson provided an overview of KM in practice in NATO, their concept development & experimentation group seems particularly interesting), Arup (Kim Sherwin @misskimsherwin a fellow member of #TeamLibrarian shared a remarkable culture and…

Knowledge sharing for Joint Chiefs of Staff
Currently at the KM Australia 2017 conference at which I’m presenting tomorrow on knowledge management and innovation. Some interesting talks so far and I’ve already found myself sharing one of my notes from the Association for Information & Image Management (AIIM) 2013 Conference held down in New Orleans, so am late-posting here as they’re still interesting and relevant from a great speaker.

Enterprise Information management (IM) and information technology (IT) are not the same, however they are inter-connected, supporting information exchange across and beyond organisations, with each discipline acting as an enabler for the other.
