Challenges
Knowledge Exchange - Share Your Knowledge and We'll Share Ours
At KnowMap, we like to use customer capital
to innovate and develop content. Challenges offer a way to do so. Responding
to our challenges is a way to share your knowledge with others and in
return we will share knowledge with you through an Emerald
subscription (3 free issues/6
months' worth) to KnowMap or free publications.
(If you are already a subscriber, 3 additional issues will be added
to your subscription.)
We now have these challenges:
 Knowledge
Innovation: The Role of Information Professionals
Knowledge
Competencies: What Are the Necessary KSA and How Can We Acquire
Them?
Global Learn Day Challenge!
Customer Focused Marketing Messages:
An ENTOVATION Challenge!
Special Discussion: What is KM versus
IM?

Knowledge Innovation: The Role of
Information Professionals
Debra M. Amidon challenges us: Are we ready to innovate our future
together!
Read what others in the information profession have said about their
role in moving organizations toward knowledge innovation. Then contribute
your own views (you do not have to consider yourself an information
professional) to win a complimentary Emerald subscription to KnowMap.
(If you are already a subscriber, 3 additional issues will be added
to your subscription.)
Knowledge Competencies:
What Are the Necessary KSA and How Can We Acquire Them?
Although Tulloch no longer needs responses to her survey as she now
has completed her Emporia State University MLS requirements, our readers
continue to be interested in this topic. If you would like to contribute
your ideas by completing the survey, which will now come to us, we will
publish these in a later issue of KnowMap
and reward you for your knowledge sharing with a complimentary Emerald
subscription. (If you are already a subscriber, 3 additional issues
will be added to your subscription.)
Global Learn Day Challenge
We are seeking stories and news to feature in our Case
Studies - Learning Connecting the Dots section. The stories
should feature how some person or organization is increasing affordable
access to education. The submitter as well as the person
or organization featured will receive an Emerald subscription to KnowMap
and in addition the featured person or organization may become eligible
as a nominee for the Socrates Academy Awards. (If you are already a
subscriber, 3 additional issues will be added to your subscription.)
Please send your stories to using the subject: Global Learn Day Challenge!

A Function of Knowledge: Part II - The Practice by Debra M. Amidon,
Founder and Chief Strategist, ENTOVATION International Ltd.

KnowMap with the subject line: The
ENTOVATION Challenge!
Special Discussion: What is KM
versus IM?
One of the best ways to learn and leverage knowledge is by sharing
thoughts and experiences with others. We invite you to add your comments
on the issue raised by Denham Grey, Chief Executive Officer, GreyMatter
Inc., one of our contributors to Vol 1, No. 2. He wonders: "if
others also see the need to archive, as a attribute that separates knowledge
from information?"
Read Grey's Letter and our editorial comments. Then join the debate: What is KM versus IM? What activities and what attributes separate the two?
Win an Emerald subscription (3 complimentary issues) to KnowMap
for your contribution. (If you are already a subscriber, 3 additional
issues will be added to your subscription.)
