I recently heard a friend say, “I’d rather stab my eye with a pencil than attend this meeting.”. While extreme, her opinion of meetings is not uncommon among employees. This is a missed opportunity for employers. If employees spend their time dreading meetings and misunderstanding important objectives, then they are less likely to drive results that contribute to the organization’s success.

In this video I describe the Three Eras of knowledge management that I have previously written about on this blog, Where Knowledge Management has Been and Where it is Going – Part One , Part Two , and Part Three. My understanding about the third era continues to grow so I have elaborated the third era in this post. In the earlier blog post I called the third era, “collective knowledge” and I remain convinced that collective knowledge is at the heart of this change.

Dear A Advisor, Many of the teams in my company are expanding and I’m looking for new managers to lead them. I’m looking for candidates that will fit in well with my teams’ cultures, but who will pinpoint improvements to be made in the teams. Since my teams already have a strong culture, I think it’s particularly important to protect it. How do I determine whether a candidate is able to balance these competing demands?

Please come to a complete stop before proceeding… Stop waiting for a magic moment to engage. Stop mistaking engagement as someone else’s job or responsibility. Stop conceptualizing engagement as a problem to be solved. Stop searching for a stronger business case for engagement. Stop thinking of employee engagement as an extra. Stop believing you need more data to begin.

'Why can''t everyone look like me, sound like me, think like me, act like me, dream like me, talk like me, work like me, lead like me, worship like me, celebrate like me, argue like me, agree like me, and just be like me ? Simple. Because the world isn''t made up of a bunch of people named "me." The world is made up of billions of different people, but they all have one thing in common.

One of the best tools I've found for my own ongoing professional development is a career journal.

'Pride is the ultimate double-edged sword. It helps us stay strong in the face of adversity, and it sends us right to the bottom of the pit when we cling too tightly. What an odd combination.
