USING NARRATIVE TO WIN (OR STRENGTHEN)
SUPPORT FOR KM
 
Winning management or staff support for knowledge management can be challenging task, as knowledge management, as a horizontal sharing activity, tends to cut across the vertical lines of authority in an organization. Moreover, once the elements of knowledge management have been put in place in an organization, energy may flag and the program can falter. In this highly interactive workshop led by Steve Denning, author of The Secret Language of Leadership, participants will learn how to mobilize the power of narrative and storytelling to inspire enduring enthusiasm for knowledge management, even among difficult audiences. Among the learning points will be:
 
- clarifying the goals of your KM program;
- clarifying the story of the people whose support you need to win;
- clarifying your own story as a change agent for KM;
- putting together a compelling presentation, using narrative.
- acquiring leadership presence, through the body language of leadership.
