Contextualizing now integrated with Comapping

Monday, February 15th, 2010

 

Hypershiter, visual mapper and a blogger Wallace Tait writes about adding context to mind mapping. The point in case is the recent integration of Context Organizer with Comapping. Wallace writes:

The point of extracting context from Web Pages and documents is quite simple; we are overloaded with data, information and knowledge and we need to get to the point of the barrage of data that attacks us daily.

For the academic, the use of Comapping with Contextual Organizer will be invaluable, as the cloud gives you the ideal medium for creating, managing and sharing information and knowledge with your colleagues and students within a protected cloud space.

For the business user Comapping can become a very convenient information carrier and knowledge mapping tool; becoming a standard process and system tool for creating all relevant information associated with your business management system.

The addition of Contextual Organizer now gives you the ability to research Web Pages. With the insertion of a URL you’ll be offered an “Analyze” button and voila, the Contextual engine which uses the Amazon server extracts the contextual relevance for your research purposes.

 

 * This mind map was produced using Comapping online collaborative mapping software with Context Organizer Analyze auto-mapping add-on.

Common sense knowledge management advice

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008

"The Writing Organization: Knowledge Management Made Easy" By: Tim Leberecht 

1-Sentence Summary*

Depending on their role, employees can blog about customer experiences, sales tactics, strategy, product improvements, organizational design, competitors, market trends, and even gossip."

Isn’t this obvious? And yet this common sense advice is seldom practiced… I wish that every organization acts on Tim Lebrecht’s advice. 

By encouraging employees to write about their problem solving, customers, and management issues organizations can tap into a very rich source of tacit knowledge.  
 
Freely shared experience helps in identifying common challenges and solutions. It is a quick and perhaps a fun way to build corporate culture in a non-elitist way. It may also be a very good way to improve morale because it gives everyone forum and voice in decision making process, makes things more transparent and fosters collaboration.
 
Indeed, Tim points out a common sense approach to knowledge management and knowledge sharing.
