Knowledge Management is an often over-looked and under-valued activity in any organization. With regard to a definition, KMWorld.com and the Gartner Group state, “Knowledge management is a discipline that promotes an integrated approach to identifying, capturing, evaluating, retrieving, and sharing all of an enterprise’s information assets. These assets may include databases, documents, policies, procedures, and previously un-captured expertise and experience in individual workers” (Duhon, 1998). In her post below, Yasmina Khelifi advocates for employees to take the lead when it comes to this discipline – and I concur as long as we are maintaining that KM resources be secure, accessible, organized, current, and have some level of redundancy. Our workgroups have recently turned to Microsoft Teams as a solution for file-sharing and collaboration. Share your organization’s approaches to knowledge management in the coments below:

In my experience, one of the biggest pitfalls with regard to the Backlog is not being able to hit your stride in terms of refinement. The proper cadence can be a science, and I have known a lot of managers who are heavy-handed. On the other hand, too many items can seem insignificant over time.
Review Christian Bisson’s post below and give your feed back in the comments:
From Voices on Project Management: By Christian Bisson A key artifact for any successful team is a healthy backlog: a list of what’s needed to bring value to the project—written in a way the team can understand and ordered so the team is always focused on what brings the most value. Yet between all the user stories,…
