KnowMap Releases First Issue In Response to Knowledge Practitioners' Needs

Calgary, Alberta - KnowMap: The Knowledge Management, Auditing and Mapping Magazine has just released its inaugural issue in response to needs identified by knowledge managers and practitioners throughout the world. Respondents to a survey conducted in late 1999 and early 2000 overwhelmingly identified their requirement to learn practical techniques for KM (knowledge management).

"KnowMap arose from the desire of practitioners, professionals and managers to learn about successful knowledge management practices and tools" writes founder and Editor-in-Chief, Xenia Stanford. "We found many KM publications meeting the more esoteric or philosophical top down view of knowledge management, but professionals appear to be ever hungry not for ideals but for achievables."

KM practitioners are finding that tools, such as software, are only extensions, not substitutes, for good knowledge management practices. Thus KnowMap includes articles and case studies written by successful KM practitioners with expertise in a varied toolkit that emphasizes human skills and knowledge.
