TV reality show

My wife and I participated in a live TV show that is screened throughout the SADC region (South Africa and neighbouring countries). The theme that we addressed is marriage and relationships. We live in a time when marriages are under attack as if they are going out of fashion. Unfortunately many entered this institution with little preparation or no knowledge of the purpose of marriage. Lacking insight of the origins of marriage, they always see an end even before they embark on the journey. Many ignore the instructions of the Bible and mismatch their priorities to add to a negative statistics. See pic from the live TV show...below

My presentation at the ICKM 2012: Taking Knowledge Management to the next level in South Africa

In June 2012, the University of Johannesburg invited me to submit a paper for the ICKM (International Conference on Knowledge Management).

At first I was double-minded whether to wait until we have concluded the Knowledge Audit exercise for my current employer. The challenge for many organisations is how much info can one disclose on the public domain. I think in many ways SA corporations are so cautious of what information must be shared; and unfurtunately ending up sharing nothing to the public. We ought to strive to balance the scale by sharing some information and knowledge with the researchers and the industry at large.

With all the concerns, I eventually agreed to present the KM Journey which entails the embarking on a Knowledge Audit exercise in an organisation with over 27 000 employees who are dispersed in 9 Provinces of South Africa. A mixed methodology was deployed including the Zack's Knowledge-SWOT, KM Perception survey, and various KM Diagnostic tools. The journey has been eventful and rewarding.

During the conference I shared our experiences as well as Lessons Learnt from the exercise.
