'Knowledge': A Small Part of Ignorance?

"To the small part of ignorance that we arrange and classify we give the name knowledge." - A. Bierce; Peter, L.J. The Peter Prescription: How to Make Things Go Right, Bantam, NY, 1972.

It is quantumiii's experience that less than 10% of the senior leaders in the companies we work with has sufficient command over the "information world". One of the reasons for this is the absence of a uniform definition of knowledge management.  (Click to see some examples...)

An alarming number of executives and senior managers have fallen behind in terms of knowledge and skills needed to effectively lead their organisations.   Instead of taking command, far too many leaders abdicate their responsibilities in favour of IT departments or other units, thereby loosing a foothold into the future.

quantumiii has a thorough understanding of all the major issues and trends in the information technology and knowledge management fields and will assist you, the leader, to gain sufficient command of an ever changing information environment.
