DESCRIPTION

This is a presentation delivered to the Consortium for Service Innovation during a workshop held in September of 2007 in Dallas, TX with ATG (now Oracle). It highlighted the early successes and challenges encountered by the early adopters in Application Support & Services while implementing Knowledge Centered Support (KCS) and the lessons learned and shared as adoption of KCS grew throughout other internal organizations at Dell. Download the PowerPoint file and you'll also get the slide notes I used during this presentation, which offers some additional explanation & background info on the main points of each slide.

Management Perspectives

• Performance Metrics Alignment – Management and IC’s must BOTH incorporate KM metrics for success

• Create the Right Incentives – Don’t encourage bad behavior

• Adapt Metrics as Rollout Progresses – Metrics you use in the beginning of rollout will need to be modified over time.

• Set & Manage Expectations – KCS isn’t something you can “turn on” and expect success.

Training & Change Management

• Planning for Success – Bring in stakeholders early to discuss how KCS will affect all user groups.

• Technical Change Management – Identifying integration opportunities with relevant IT Systems

• Process Change Management – Communication essential to preventing Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt

• Training & Coaching – Start with Basic Usage Training, but must evolve. Coaches must be trusted and have respect of knowledge workers.

• Developed New Philosophy towards knowledge & KM

• Workflow Design - should enable that articles are technically accurate, findable, and re-usable.

• Security Planning – Develop a Flexible model that can change over time. Take into account natural tendencies to hoard and silo knowledge.
