Knowledge Management, management des connaissances - Seven Principles for Cultivating Communities of Practice - 0 views

  • Because communities of practice are voluntary... what makes them successful over time is their ability to generate enough excitement, relevance, and value to attract and engage members
  • Many natural communities never grow beyond a network of friends because they fail to attract enough participants. Many intentional communities fall apart soon after their initial launch because they don’t have enough energy to sustain themselves. Communities, unlike teams and other structures, need to invite the interaction that makes them alive. For example, a park is more appealing to use if its location provides a short cut between destinations. It invites people to sit for lunch or chat if it has benches set slightly off the main path, visible, but just out of earshot, next to something interesting like a flower bed or a patch of sunlight.

  • The book “Cultivating Communities of Practice” represents a major milestone in knowledge management literature.  It provides a crystallized perspective by submitting an important structural model for the communities of practice based on the experiences culled from the World Bank, Shell Oil and McKinsey and Company.
  • The purpose is to invite greater inquiring into such an approach of managing knowledge in the organisation.
  • Chapter 1 introduces the communities of practice and explains why they are appropriate social structures suitable for developing and sharing knowledge in the organisation.  The value of the communities of practice lies in its ability to connect personal development and the professional identity of practitioners to the strategy of the organisation. Hence, communities of practice yield short-term and long-term benefits to both the organisation and the individual community member.

  • Chapter 10 enlarges the scope of communities of practice and argues that they may transcend organisational boundaries and be formed with suppliers, distributors, consumers other organisations across national borders. In closing, it suggests that communities of practice may be formed even in the society and include areas outside business such as housing, parenting, health, education and areas of practice associated to the human society. It is insightful of the authors to conceive the far-reaching applicability of communities of practice across organisations, nations and societies. This concluding chapter asserts that the need to manage knowledge is not merely restricted within the business arena.  Furthermore, the notion of communities of practice is relevant to any context so long as there is a domain of knowledge to explore and develop, a community of members who interact and a practice in which they are engaging.
  • Chapter 9 provides the strategy to design community-based knowledge initiative for the entire organisation.

  • The best tools do one thing very well. It nails a certain activity to the wall and really makes it simple and easy. Hammers drive in nails. Del.icio.us saves bookmarks. Netflix sends you movies. Photoshop enables image editing. iTunes plays music, etc. All of these tools actually have other uses, but that’s the 1%. We naturally gravitate toward software with a single purpose because its easier to remember and we know exactly what we’re doing when we’re using it.
