| Data becomes more valuable when you can transform it
into information and information becomes more valuable when you
can transform it into knowledge. How do you facilitate these transformations
in groups and individuals? With a Knowledge Tool.
Knowledge Tools are designed to perform two critical functions:
1) Help people understand complex ideas rapidly
2) Help people make good decisions about complex issues
Models represent ideas and help you make good decisions. Incorporate
models like charts, diagrams, and visual metaphors that invite critical
thinking.
Capture all the work generated in your event. Create a reference
document. Mine this encapsulation for further insights. Navigate
future course corrections.
Present this event experience at any time, to anyone. Communicate
your decisions and the reasons for them clearly and meaningfully.
Ownership and advocacy can be cultivated only when people feel they
have a strong grasp of the ideas at hand. Knowledge Tools communicate
strategic directions and their context, drawing people in.
