Fishing

A complicated challenge with many moving parts, all of them something to do with fish.

What, how, who … and stewardship

Know how, know what and know who – could there be a fourth one besides?

Get the talent on implementation, not strategy

experience in this case is the experience of implementation. That’s where we get the customer feedback, where we discover the problems and work out solutions. The knowledge is applied, tested and evolves from implementation.

Tacit aversion

Despite the attention it garners as a subject of discussion in KM circles, there is an in-built aversion to tacit knowledge in orthodox work culture.

Tacit and remote

It’s reasonable to think that the transfer of tacit knowledge may have been one of the casualties of remote working patterns during the pandemic.

Solid, liquid and gas

Instead of the tacit | explicit dichotomy, maybe it helps to imagine knowledge in three states: solid, liquid and gas.

Non-alcoholic drink

Something rather odd, and possibly unique in The Apprentice, happened in this episode in which Les Miserables’ task was to develop a new non-alcoholic drink product.

Toothbrush

Create a new electric toothbrush for 6-8 year olds and an app to encourage them to use it well. But keep listening, because the challenge also includes pitching to buyers, so there are three, not two deliverables: toothbrush, app and pitch.
