ic knowledge center

Reshaping business and the world by leveraging knowledge intangibles

I was reading a guest post on the Ning blog (this network was built on the Ning platform) and found a post that talked about how the Peace and Collaborative Development Network had published a series "over 30 resource guides on central themes that address critical issues and gaps in the field."

This seems like a way that we could begin to create content around IC Management. My idea would be that a guide be a .pdf document of no more than five pages that would explain an idea related to IC Management. Larger ideas would be broken up into smaller documents. I make this suggestion so that our Guides can be quick reference documents for mainstream managers.

Then, we can use the comment section of the discussions to get feedback from readers and users of the Guides and continue to revise them over time. I think the right thing to do would be to have the Guides be subject to the Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 License

I will commit to taking a first stab at a Guide called, "What is IC?" I hope other members of the community will step up to help out with future guides. The original author/editor can post the Guide and take the responsibility of adapting it over time.

We'll see how this goes and can adapt the idea over time. In the meantime, any and all suggestions welcome!

Hi Mary,

Thanks for organizing this network around IC and I believe it will become and stike more importance as we move forward in time.

I am a bit lost on where the placeholders is of open source documents: here (but I don't see how) or at the Resource tabs, but that refers to blogs...

I had some documents published already on my profile, but I can also put it in the open source content of the total ICKC network.
thanks for shedding some light
Regards
Joris
Joris-

Please continue to post your own content to the Resources section. Yes, the language calls it "blogs" right now. I will change all the language in the program once we settle on the right vocabulary.

The short answer on the open source content is that we haven't created any yet. In the next day or so, I am going to put up a trial "Guide" called "What is IC?" Then we can collect comments on it and update it based on community feedback.

Many of us in the field have large bodies of work and systems for IC measurement and management. The idea with the guides is to start at the foundation and create short reference documents (<5 pages) that an average businessperson can pick up and use to inform a problem they have at hand. Andrea Gasperini has suggested a number of issues that could be the subject of future guides.

I see the Guides as being components of an open source IC management system, something that can be shared by all. We will all have our own deeper content but we will create this foundation in order to cross the chasm and reach a broader audience.

What do you think?

Sounds great Mary and a lot of work ahead, but we are used to that... :)

I will await your publication on what is IC, cause we have one too and maybe we can compare int he discussions and agree the common content, and the additions we need to add out of the differences.

For now I'll just make my IC presentation public under Resources,

Till talks
Joris.
