The 10th Midwest Knowledge Management Symposium

We are pioneers (KM) expertise, education and awareness.

We are bringing knowledge management (KM) expertise, education and awareness.

Every day, we are confronted with more and more knowledge-based difficulties. Pioneer Knowledge Services' goal is to create cultures that support information development, knowledge transfer, knowledge handling, and, eventually, rapid access to knowledge to facilitate decision making. Individuals and non-profits alike benefit from our efforts to foster knowledge cultures.

According to the 2015 Nonprofit Communications Trends Report, a survey of nonprofits across the U.S.,  the biggest challenges for nonprofit communicators was the lack of time to produce quality content. Other top knowledge-related challenges were:

  • Inability to measure effectiveness
  • Producing engaging content
  • Producing enough content
  • Difficulty integrating communications channels

Evidence of the increasing importance of knowledge management can be found on the pages of most business and trade magazines. Trust that enables sharing is highlighted in HR Magazine’s by Pamela Babcock (2004),  “Trust and a willingness to share information—not control it—are…key attributes than can lead to successful knowledge management programs.”  Babcock further advocates “baking knowledge into” key job workflows as well as building knowledge sharing into performance appraisal and incentive programs.
