As you’ll know from the home page, I’m Dion Lindsay, and I provide training and consultancy services in the rapidly growing knowledge management market.
I have done for a few years, although for the last two I have focused on public training while I took time away for family needs. Now that I’m returning to the full range of services (public training, inhouse training, and consultancy), this is what I’m intending for the rest of this year:
Public workshops:
- Continuation of my Practical KM workshop and Advanced KM workshop, which I run in the Spring and Autumn under the CILIP UKeiG banner.
- Communities of Practice, Collaboration Tools, Knowledge Transfer and Retention probably as public courses under my own Real KM banner
- All these will be extensively advertised – on twitter @dionl, LinkedIn and JISCmail lists and everywhere else I can think of!
In-house workshops
These are by arrangement when public workshops don’t quite cover what your IM and KM workforce needs, or when the timing of my public workshops isn’t right for you. The best way to find out about these is by emailing me at dion@dionlindsayconsulting.com
Consultancy
- In previous years this has included organisation-wide knowledge management strategies, and development programmes for Libraries and Information Units wanting to adopt knowledge management as a new service.
- My clients have included Amnesty International, the General Social Care Council, Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, the Motor Neurone Disease Association, and the International Bureau of Fiscal Documentation (Amsterdam)
- The best way to find out about all this is to email me dion@dionlindsayconsulting.com for a list of the topics and services I provide or to discuss your needs with me. Watch my blog here and my twitter account @dionl for a view of my current expertise and interests.
Developing my resources
- I’m maintaining a strand of research on genuine KM digital tools as they come to market, including those that claim an element of artificial intelligence. Definitely part of KM future, but we need to be realistic
- Discovering what employers think KM involves, by analysing detailed job advertisements on LinkedIn and similar
- Sifting my consultancy experience, of course, for lessons learned and new perspectives to offer on KM
Looking forward to hearing from you if any of these have a value to your organisation. This year promises to be productive and fun!
