19.03.2025 | Harnessing Youth Potential

Organizations face complex challenges. To solve these challenges, there is a belief that we should «give youth a voice» What if, they were given a seat at the decision-making table?

Join this SKMF Roundtable discussion. Explore how young employees and other special stakeholders can help drive innovation by sharing their unique knowledge.

Should we just build on existing knowledge or explore entirely new sources? Gain a fresh perspective and share your insights on empowering tomorrow’s leaders.

16.10.2024 | Digital Knowledge Management at Siemens

"Siemens References" is an innovative web platform designed to facilitate the worldwide exchange of knowledge, experiences, and best practices across the Siemens company. This platform connects and stimulates direct exchange and communication amongst employees. Observations have shown that the resulting knowledge transfer takes place not only via the application but also, in tandem, through bilateral channels.

During this roundtable, participants will learn about the “Siemens References” platform and explore interesting questions about how to engage people in internal collaboration platforms and how to motivate and sustain the surrounding communities – and linkages to performance and knowledge management.

What has, and will knowledge management become? Find out in this session delivered in the form of a survey and follow-up conversations about the full range of today's KM – to see where you and your organisation stand on this question and related issues.
