| Description: | Above and Beyond KM is a blog about how we work and how knowledge management can help. My observations are based on my experience practicing law and then practicing knowledge management in a fantastic New York City firm. I’ve also benefited greatly from the enormous generosity of my friends and colleagues in knowledge management worldwide. Their invigorating conversation and probing questions have forced me to think a bit harder about what we do and why we do it. The resulting musings are captured here in an effort to add a little to that ongoing conversation. I do hope you’ll join us. |

Mind Reading
It may the closest thing to mind reading we’ve seen yet. Starting today, Loopt is offering a new service called Pulse, which claims to be able to provide you with an extraordinary array of helpful information as you move around town: Pulse produces a personalized and ever-changing list of recommendations based on where you are,

Are You Ready for Change?
Are you resistant to change? Are you an obstacle to change? What kind of questions are those for a knowledge manager? Important questions. So much of what we do involves change. In fact, we’re constantly urging our internal clients to try new things, adopt new methods, be open to change — provided it’s the change we’re recommending. But are we willing to eat our own dog food? You can’t be an effective change agent unless you yourself are open to change

100 and Counting
Yesterday we visited the matriarch of our family to celebrate a special occasion — her 100th birthday. She showed us the many humorous and touching birthday cards she had received (including one from the President and Mrs. Obama). Since she’s as sharp as a tack, we were able to have a wide-ranging conversation that covered family, politics and sports. (Just for the record, she’s very disappointed in the Red Sox and unwilling to root for the Yankees.) And then, we shared some cel

KM’s Lawyer Jokes
Q: Why won’t sharks attack lawyers? A: Professional courtesy. Even if you haven’t heard that old chestnut before, I’m sure you’ve heard at least one of the thousands of equally lame lawyer jokes that people all over the world love to repeat. It’s bad enough when a lawyer encounters one of these jokes in a social setting, but it’s beyond reasonable to expect a lawyer to take it sitting down when th

Dating a Beautiful Model
Some folks aspire to be as beautiful as a model, while other folks aspire to have a model on their arm. Lawyers, by contrast, aspire to have a collection of models. Model DOCUMENTS, that is. And, as long as lawyers want model documents, law firm knowledge management personnel are going to try to find ways to provide them. But, should they? As mentioned in my earlier post, KM’s Worst Enemy, mod
