5:07 pm CDN: #KMers chat - Ready to go?
5:08 pm CDN: #KMers chat - INTRO - Both #Innovation AND #KM need a supportive environment, access to expert knowledge, collaboration across boundaries...
5:08 pm AndreaMeyer: #KM Twitter Chat Knowledge for #Innovation 12-1pmET right now today #KMers http://ow.ly/1nTMII
5:08 pm CDN: #KMers chat - Q1 - So what could Open Innovation learn from #KM? Which KM practices are applicable in the (Open) #Innovation environment?
5:09 pm swanwick: @CDN Could you define open innovation for us? #KMers
5:09 pm WeKnowMore: Johan Lammers @ UNICEF New York. Flying around today. hopefully able to join as much as possible in this chat #KMers
5:09 pm technogenii: Q1 - Open Innovation and KM are both about sharing #KMers
5:09 pm WeKnowMore: RT @AndreaMeyer: #KM Twitter Chat Knowledge for #Innovation 12-1pmET right now today #KMers http://ow.ly/1nTMII
5:09 pm klowey22: anytime we talk about #innovation, i'm a big fan of the hbr 'innovator dna' article http://tinyurl.com/y85nkz6 #kmers
5:10 pm MVMNT_Mike: @CDN knowledge Transfer, Best Practices, Knowledge of how not to reinvent the wheel are carry overs from #KM to #Innovation I think. #KMers
5:10 pm CDN: #KMers chat - Simply stated, Open Innovation is when you don't go alone, but you collaborate with outside world: clients, competitors, etc.
5:10 pm klowey22: hbr says innovator dna includes skills of Associating, questioning, observing, experimenting, networking #kmers
5:11 pm Gwen_Ishmael: @swanwick Per Joel West: Open innovation is using the market rather internal hierarchies to source and commercialize innovations. #KMers
5:11 pm swanwick: RT @CDN: Q1 - So what could Open Innovation learn from #KM? Which KM practices are applicable in the (Open) #Innovation environment? #KMers
5:11 pm technogenii: Q1 The development of Open Innovation could be enhanced by #KM best practices in information sharing and collective expertize #KMers
5:12 pm CDN: RT @klowey22: anytime we talk about #innovation, i'm a big fan of the hbr 'innovator dna' article http://tinyurl.com/y85nkz6 #kmers
5:12 pm WeKnowMore: RT @CDN: #KMers chat - Simply stated, Open Innovation is when you don't go alone, but you collaborate with outside world: clients, competitors, etc.
5:12 pm plantpixie: Open Innovation recognizes that knowledge is widely distributed. Something KMers know well and can apply our best practices. #KMers
5:12 pm swanwick: well orchestrated KM is always for a positive business purpose. Innovation should be the same. There are bad innovations. #KMers
5:13 pm Gwen_Ishmael: OI sometimes can be a messy process; KM seems to have that mess a bit more under control. #KMers
5:13 pm teromakotero: RT @CDN: #KMers chat - Simply stated, Open Innovation is when you don't go alone, but you collaborate with outside world: clients, competitors, etc.
5:13 pm CDN: RT @plantpixie: Open Innovation recognizes that knowledge is widely distributed. Something KMers know well and can apply our best practices. #KMers
5:13 pm JoeRaimondo: The people who know and talk about innovation (e.g., Christensen, et al) know nothing about KM, IMHO #kmers
5:13 pm technogenii: Also, check out Five Secrets of Great Innovators - Chief Learning Officer magazine http://tinyurl.com/y8qkw8z #KMers
5:13 pm JoeRaimondo: We have worked with clients on this -- open innovation is the wave of the future, but the IP management issues are terrifying #kmers
5:14 pm Gwen_Ishmael: @plantpixie I think OI is getting there, but we still have trouble casting the net as wide as we should. #KMers
5:14 pm WeKnowMore: RT @plantpixie: Open Innovation recognizes that knowledge is widely distributed. Something KMers know well and can apply our best practices. #KMers
5:14 pm Ridgehead: Innovation is often a by-product of successful KM. #KMers
5:14 pm WeKnowMore: RT @technogenii: Also, check out Five Secrets of Great Innovators - Chief Learning Officer magazine http://tinyurl.com/y8qkw8z #KMers
5:14 pm technogenii: RT @mneff: Innovation is just KM in action <grin>. #KMers
5:14 pm Gwen_Ishmael: Bingo! RT @JoeRaimondo: ...open innovation is the wave of the future, but the IP management issues are terrifying #KMers
5:15 pm jeffhester: RT @plantpixie: Open Innovation recognizes that knowledge is widely distributed. Something KMers know well and can apply... Yep! #KMers
5:15 pm CDN: @plantpixie But isn't it so that those KM Best Practices were developed INSIDE the organization? How valid are they OUTSIDE borders? #KMers
5:15 pm Ridgehead: It's like Maslows hierarchy, KM is the base and Innovation is Self-Actualization #KMers
5:15 pm CDN: RT @JoeRaimondo: We have worked with clients on this -- open innovation is the wave of the future, but the IP management issues are terrifying #kmers
5:15 pm klowey22: in km, we tend to talk about knowledge creation, transfer and retention...hence overlap with innovation and collaboration #kmers
5:15 pm swanwick: If u r managing knowledge/process better than the next guy then open IP should be less of an issue. No? #KMers
5:16 pm Gwen_Ishmael: @JoeRaimondo Curious... why is it that innovators know nothing about KM? Silos? No interest? Different discipline? #KMers
5:16 pm technogenii: RT @plantpixie: OI recognizes that knowledge is widely distributed. Something KMers know well and can apply our best practices. #KMers
5:16 pm jeffhester: I agree that innovation should be an outcome of effective KM, but isn't Open Innovation a little different? #KMers
5:16 pm stangarfield: @CDN In many cases, KM works better across companies than it does inside companies, e.g. KM CoPs such as SIKM Leaders. #KMers
5:16 pm Gwen_Ishmael: In order for OI to be successful there must be good KM. The former can't be sustained without the latter. #KMers
5:17 pm CDN: RT @mneff: Innovation is just KM in action <grin>. #kmers
5:17 pm plantpixie: KM principles listed by @klowey22 are universal and could apply across organiations. It's when you get into Tech that it's tricky. #KMers
5:17 pm jeffhester: Does Open Innovation necessitate "Open KM?" #KMers
5:17 pm technogenii: @jeffhester What differences do you see? #KMers
5:17 pm swanwick: How many enterprise KM systems do you know that are sharing knowledge with partners? Customers, some. #KMers
5:17 pm PhillyNewsBiz: RT @MVMNT_Mike: Joining #KMers chat soon. Today's topic Knowledge for Innovation http://ow.ly/1nTMII http://ow.ly/16tS5a
5:17 pm klowey22: i think there are many potential synergies between km processes, innovation processes and EA processes... #kmers
5:18 pm AndreaMeyer: true! RT @Gwen_Ishmael: In order for OI to be successful there must be good #KM. The former cant be sustained without the latter. #kmers
5:18 pm stangarfield: Recent example: I asked the same question in both an internal and external discussion board, and got many more answers externally #KMers
5:18 pm mneff: @stangarfield Yes, amazing how that is sometimes. The IP question comes up from time to time but KMers seem to be more open than most #kmers
5:18 pm swanwick: RT @jeffhester: Does Open Innovation necessitate "Open KM?" --> great question. Seems it does. #KMers
5:18 pm jeffhester: @swanwick Not so many. But therein lies the opportunity. #KMers
5:18 pm rickladd: I hope all this multi-tasking keeps my synapses from getting wrinkles (or psoriasis!) #e2conf #kmers
5:18 pm Gwen_Ishmael: @AndreaMeyer I think I agree. As a marketer/innovator I seldom cross paths with KM, which is unfortunate and counterproductive. #KMers
5:19 pm JoeRaimondo: @Gwen_Ishmael WRT innovation experts, I think it's a lack of interest and "siloed" mindset. They operate @ hi-level strategy; #kmers
5:19 pm CDN: @stangarfield If CoP work well across organizations, are they a source of Innovation? Unsure about that (more Best Practices) #KMers
5:19 pm AndreaMeyer: @rickladd don't tell me you're going to try all 4 now! :-) #kmers
5:19 pm technogenii: @jeffhester What is Open KM as opposed to regular # KM? #KMers
5:19 pm mneff: @rickladd Don't feel bad, I was on a conference call at the same time. Just finished so I could join this chat. #kmers
5:19 pm JoeRaimondo: @Gwen_Ishmael ..drilling down into KM and the impact on IP management looks tactical to them. #kmers
5:20 pm plantpixie: good question: RT @technogenii: @jeffhester What is Open KM as opposed to regular #KM? #KMers
5:20 pm CDN: RT @Gwen_Ishmael: In order for OI to be successful there must be good KM. The former can't be sustained without the latter. #KMers
5:20 pm MVMNT_Mike: @Gwen_Ishmael Yet in some firms, the Marketer is the KM because they have the content. Just not the knowledge of what to do with it #KMers
5:20 pm AndreaMeyer: @CDN of course, why wouldn't CoPs be a source of #innovation? I'd say prime area #kmers
5:20 pm Somebaudy: C'est quoi ce hashtag #kmers ?
5:20 pm technogenii: RT @CDN: @stangarfield If CoP work well across orgs, are they a source of Innovation? Unsure about that (more Best Practices) #KMers
5:20 pm jeffhester: @technogenii off-the-cuff: Open KM would include participants from outside the enterprise (maybe even anyone who plays nice?) #KMers
5:20 pm Gwen_Ishmael: @JoeRaimondo I think you're probably right about the experts.Then there are those of us who have to make innovation happen. :-) #KMers
5:21 pm BarbLeonCO: #KMers I very much agree with @joeRaimondo. Are you paying attention to Joe?
5:21 pm Netview_Impact: RT @mneff: Innovation is just KM in action <grin>. #kmers
5:21 pm JoeRaimondo: There is a counter-criticism to OI arising-that it's just outsourcing R&D into a global labor mkt=> wage arbitrage #kmers
5:21 pm swanwick: @AndreaMeyer Perhaps COI's are the best place to start I=interest. They flow better across organizations. #KMers
5:21 pm Gwen_Ishmael: @MVMNT_Mike Yes, that's more in line with my experience. Often, though, we didn't have good #KM tools to do a good job. #KMers
5:21 pm stangarfield: @CDN It's all in how you use the CoP - if you ask a question and get 15 ideas which build on each other, by acting, you can innovate #KMers
5:21 pm technogenii: @CDN @stangarfield For CoP and Innovation, read Collective expertise (Niina Koivunen) http://bit.ly/b8sZi9 #KMers
5:21 pm swanwick: eg. KMers = a COI #KMers
5:21 pm plantpixie: RT @JoeRaimondo: There is a counter-criticism to OI arising-that its just outsourcing R&D into a global labor mkt=> wage arbitrage #KMers
5:22 pm technogenii: @jeffhester Ah so it's just a question of the #KM network parameters #KMers
5:22 pm Gwen_Ishmael: @JoeRaimondo Wow! That feels like a mistake... OI is so much more than just R&D. #KMers
5:23 pm jeffhester: I don't buy the "outsourcing R&D" protest. We live in a global economy. Get over it. #KMers
5:23 pm CDN: @JoeRaimondo The IP Management issues are related to sharing & trust etc. That is something that the #KM community works with, not? #KMers
5:23 pm Netview_Impact: @technogenii Thanks for the book recommendation! #kmers
5:23 pm mneff: Outsourcing - wage arbitrage - smart business - OI - leveraging resources - asking more people to help me solve my problem and theirs #kmers
5:23 pm technogenii: @stangarfield: @CDN CoP are about advancing practice, therefore about innovating #KMers
5:24 pm mneff: I think as the world gets flatter and more people get engaged based on interest and passion the wage arbitrage question will fade. #kmers
5:24 pm innovKelli: Great chat going! First time I've happened upon you all. Does this happen every Tuesday? #KMers
5:24 pm plantpixie: Outsourcing ideas has that collaborative element so critical to modern KM. #KMers
5:24 pm technogenii: @Netview_Impact Pleasure. I've written about this, unpublished to date so contact for more info #KMers
5:24 pm jeffhester: Here at Fluor, KM is open, but only within the enterprise. Next step? Clients, suppliers... competitors? #KMers
5:25 pm Gwen_Ishmael: @innovKelli Hi! My first time as well - good to see you here. #KMers
5:25 pm plantpixie: @innovKelli Yes : ) #KMers
5:25 pm mneff: @innovKelli Yes, glad you found us. Welcome. #kmers
5:25 pm jeffhester: RT @plantpixie: Outsourcing ideas has that collaborative element so critical to modern KM. - TOTALLY! #KMers
5:25 pm AndreaMeyer: Organizing expert knowledge: RT @technogenii: @CDN @stangarfield For CoP & #Innovation : Collective expertise http://bit.ly/b8sZi9 #kmers
5:25 pm CDN: Book reco by @technogenii - For CoP and Innovation, read Collective expertise (Niina Koivunen) http://bit.ly/b8sZi9 #KMers
5:25 pm MVMNT_Mike: @innovKelli Just about every Tues. kmers.org for more info! #KMers
5:25 pm Ridgehead: OI and Crowdsourcing are quite similar, although OI tends to be behind firewall, within restricted community for orgs #KMers
5:25 pm Smart_People: via @stangarfield: I asked the same question in internal & external discussion bds, & got many more answers externally #KMers <so true
5:25 pm innovKelli: I see several familiar faces - I'd love to join this group on a regular basis. #KMers
5:25 pm klowey22: RT @jeffhester: Here at Fluor, KM is open, but only within the enterprise. > how might you take on that next step? #kmers
5:26 pm JoeRaimondo: @cdn The IP stuff is absolutely is a KM issue, but at a C-level, there isn't the same 'enlightened" perspective on managing IP #kmers
5:26 pm Gwen_Ishmael: @AndreaMeyer @CDN We use CoPs a good deal in our innovation projects. They can be excellent sources of innovation if guided well. #KMers
5:26 pm technogenii: In my industry, aviation, we are building a CoP across Co. but w/in 1 industry for sharing best practices and innovating #KMers
5:26 pm AndreaMeyer: @innovKelli it'd be great to have you, Kelli! #kmers
5:26 pm MVMNT_Mike: @Ridgehead Philadlephia is actually trying to create OI through the Entrepreneurs and Creatives in the city. #KMers
5:26 pm KFiles: RT @CDN: Could today's #KMers chat on Knowledge for Innovation http://ow.ly/1nTMII interest the #Innochat community 2? (thx 2 @Gwen_Ishmael)
5:27 pm technogenii: @JoeRaimondo When you say IP, it is an abbreviation for what? #KMers
5:27 pm mneff: @JoeRaimondo Agree. The lawyers and records management folks still have a hard time with OI and IP sharing. Not sure how to resolve #kmers
5:27 pm jeffhester: @klowey22 How to take the next step? I'll have to get back to you on that when we sort it out. #KMers
5:27 pm Ridgehead: Intellectual Property #KMers
5:28 pm technogenii: RT @mneff: IP = Intellectual Property Thx! #KMers
5:28 pm CDN: Looking at the tweetstream: Could we say that good #KM practice is SUPPORTIVE of #Innovation, but not ENOUGH in itself? #KMers
5:28 pm Gwen_Ishmael: @mneff They're making progress, but it's slow. This was a key topic of discussion at last year's OI Summit in Las Vegas. #KMers
5:28 pm JoeRaimondo: IP = Intellectual Property #kmers
5:28 pm AndreaMeyer: @Gwen_Ishmael great to hear! Any recommendations for good guidance of CoPs for #innovation? #kmers
5:28 pm mneff: @jeffhester You are not alone. We are trying to do the same with our clients, partners, subcontractors, suppliers, ... #kmers
5:29 pm klowey22: RT @jeffhester: @klowey22 How to take the next step? I'll have to get back to you > us too! :) #kmers
5:29 pm CDN: #KMers chat - I don't want to stop the discussion on Q1, but time is running. Preparing for Q2 in a few moments...
5:29 pm Gwen_Ishmael: They're turning off the WiFi - thanks for letting me join. @CDN @AndreaMeyer @mneff et all, good to see you! #KMers
5:29 pm Gwen_Ishmael: @AndreaMeyer Whoops, will get back on that one in a later post. :-) #KMers
5:29 pm technogenii: @AndreaMeyer @Gwen_Ishmael CoPs purpose is #innovation - Advancing the practice #KMers
5:30 pm AndreaMeyer: @Gwen_Ishmael eek - bye! #kmers
5:30 pm CDN: #KMers chat - Q2 - What constraints are imposed by Open Innovation? How do we deal with discovery, partnering, trust, and protection issues?
5:30 pm JoeRaimondo: WRT OI backlash, see http://blog.openinnovation.net/2008/10/open-innovation-on-cheap.html #kmers
5:30 pm CDN: #KMers chat - EXAMPLE - An Open Innovation platform for the Euro BIOCHEM industry must allow to find partners, develop trust, share IP, etc.
5:31 pm jeffhester: RT @technogenii: @AndreaMeyer @Gwen_Ishmael CoPs purpose is #innovation - Agreed! And CoPs are best equipped to make it happen. #KMers
5:31 pm technogenii: RT @CDN: #KMers Q2 - What constraints are imposed by OI? How to deal with discovery, partnering, trust, and protection issues? #KMers
5:31 pm Netview_Impact: How is intellectual property related to social and human capital? #kmers
5:31 pm plantpixie: Are there sufficient legal protections in place for inno ideas to be discussed in open forums or is this a new consideration? #KMers
5:31 pm 4KM: via @stangarfield: I asked same question in internal & external discussion bds; got many more answers externally #KMers <so true
5:32 pm AndreaMeyer: @technogenii great that you've got a cross-industry CoP in aviation #kmers
5:32 pm AndreaMeyer: @plantpixie the IP issues have yet to be resolved; it's a challenge for many! #kmers
5:32 pm CDN: RT @Ridgehead: It's like Maslows hierarchy, KM is the base and Innovation is Self-Actualization #KMers
5:32 pm technogenii: @Netview_Impact: social and human capital is where where the IP resides in a knowledge based economy #KMers
5:33 pm VMaryAbraham: Interesting to consider cross-industry #innovation, when it can be hard to have innovation/collaboration within a company. #kmers
5:33 pm plantpixie: Agree: RT @technogenii: @Netview_Impact: social and human capital is where where the IP resides in a knowledge based economy #KMers
5:33 pm technogenii: @AndreaMeyer Thx! It's great fun to see the sharing of best practices and problem solving - They do share! #KMers
5:33 pm KFiles: Hi back to @Gwen_Ishmael & @cdn. I will def mark my calendar. Nice to meet you @MVMNT_Mike, @mnett & @plantpixie #KMers
5:34 pm rickladd: RT @VMaryAbraham: Interesting to consider cross-industry #innovation, when it can be hard to have innovation/collaboration within a company. #kmers
5:34 pm innovKelli: Hi back to @Gwen_Ishmael & @cdn. I will def mark my calendar. Nice to meet you @MVMNT_Mike, @mnett & @plantpixie #KMers
5:34 pm JoeRaimondo: Have talked with several firms about designing OI platforms-doing it right falls under the wicked problem space, esp wrt governance #kmers
5:35 pm technogenii: @rickladd It's about creating a culture of sharing. If you don't then you have constraints. #KMers
5:35 pm jeffhester: RT @CDN: RT @Ridgehead: Its like Maslows hierarchy, KM is the base and Innovation is Self-Actualization - Well said! #KMers
5:35 pm AndreaMeyer: @VMaryAbraham interestingly, @stangarfield said KM works better across Co's than it inside Cos, e.g. KM CoPs such as SIKM Leaders #kmers
5:35 pm VMaryAbraham: Who has solved the problems of achieving high degree of #innovation/collaboration within a company? Any tips? What works? #kmers
5:35 pm BarbLeonCO: I am not a lawyer, but sharing IP in an Open Innovation tech platform must be difficult. Or maybe not, because it is documented. #KMers
5:35 pm CDN: @technogenii a CoP in the aviation industry seems interesting, because very competitive. How does it deal with IP protection? #KMers
5:36 pm 4KM: I'm also interested in how individuals make moment-2-moment decisions about where the line is btwn potential IP and synergies #KMers
5:36 pm JoeRaimondo: e.g., once corporate counsel see the implications of OI, it really starts fluyng! #kmers
5:36 pm innovKelli: Just found #KMers chat and KMers.org http://bit.ly/bqDDIv - Chat going on now! Join in. #yam
5:37 pm Netview_Impact: @technogenii Great definition! #kmers
5:37 pm K4Health: Become a member of K4Health LinkedIn page 4 job announcements, news, research http://bit.ly/aMy7Ef #KM4Dev #ICT4D #Kmers #Tech4Dev #USAID
5:37 pm CDN: @Ridgehead Shared IP is an otion. It often entails creation of a new company (joint venture) or similar construct = legally complex! #KMers
5:38 pm technogenii: @CDN RE CoP in the aviation industry & IP protection - it focusses sharing Intl Best Practices for Security, Safety, etc Good for all #KMers
5:38 pm VMaryAbraham: @BarbLeonCO Consider recent #innovation/collaboration sponsored by Netflix.They must hv shared IP, bt prob'ly w/ a confi agt. #kmers
5:39 pm 4KM: Public sector may need OI most, and IP is often ignored, but so much is treated like unofficial IP that collab is very difficult. #KMers
5:39 pm Ridgehead: @CDN Corporate greed and ego are constraints too. A 'we can do it better' mindset needs to broken for OI to flourish #KMers
5:39 pm BarbLeonCO: Aviation industry. I work for an airlines. IP protection is held tight; while safety, security, etc are shared with other airlines. #KMers
5:39 pm technogenii: In aviation, the focus of CoP is to make Air Transport safer, there is incentive, less constraints. Everybody wins with #CoP #KM #KMers
5:40 pm VMaryAbraham: @AndreaMeyer Curious how deep the #KM is when done across companies. How much detail is actually shared? #kmers
5:40 pm JoeRaimondo: In bigger orgs, even the internal silos can be intractable-eg, sales finds new idea, biz unit has to productize, R&D has to sign off #kmers
5:40 pm CDN: @technogenii If a CoP focuses on sharing Best Practices, then it does NOT deliver #Innovation, or does it? #KMers
5:40 pm 4KM: @BarbLeonCO So do you see innovation in safety & security work across aviation companies? #KMers
5:40 pm technogenii: @BarbLeonCO Agreed for when it comes to Best Practices in business, but not for Safety & Security. #KMers
5:40 pm mneff: Many still believe that there must be a need to know before they are willing to share. This flies against the sharing mantra. ... #kmers
5:41 pm VMaryAbraham: @CDN Best practices can lead to #innovation - provided everyone is trying to improve the best practices. #kmers
5:41 pm mneff: ... on the flip side, if you share everything you have, then how will you secure profits for your knowledge products and services. #kmers
5:41 pm technogenii: @CDN: CoP first shares issues, then discusses, recommends best practices and/of will go towards #Innovation in solutions #KMers
5:42 pm Ridgehead: @mneff and most competitive companies are not beating the "sharing" drum #kmers
5:42 pm 4KM: "trying to improve the best practices" via @CDN -- another example of why "best practices" is a problematic term #KMers
5:42 pm MVMNT_Mike: @VMaryAbraham But many times the Best Practice IS what was innovated. #KMers
5:42 pm plantpixie: Agree: RT @mneff: ... on the flip side, if U share everything U have, then how will you secure profits for your K products and svcs. #KMers

5:43 pm 4KM: "if U share everything you have, then how will you secure profits" @mneff. Good Q: creative use of K? rapid response? unusual links? #KMers
5:44 pm VMaryAbraham: @4KM Agreed. At best, "best practices" are current practices for which there is no obvious improvement. That could change over time. #kmers
5:44 pm WeKnowMore: RT @VMaryAbraham: @CDN Best practices can lead to #innovation - provided everyone is trying to improve the best practices. #kmers
5:44 pm 4KM: If any of you have worked on policy in the OI-IP arena I'd love to hear from you. #KMers
5:45 pm technogenii: @4KM "if U share everything you have, then how will you secure profits" - don't share yr bread & butter, share what grows yr industry #KMers
5:45 pm VMaryAbraham: Yes, but this shldn't be a static state. RT @MVMNT_Mike: @VMaryAbraham But many times the Best Practice IS what was innovated. #kmers

5:45 pm JoeRaimondo: Innovation in big orgs is almost exclusively seen as the finding approaches to capture, amplify and disseminate process innovations #kmers
5:45 pm BarbLeonCO: Yes @KM. Innovation in S & Sec works across aviation competitors. e.g. We share safety videos, best practices in crisis management. #KMers

5:47 pm MVMNT_Mike: @VMaryAbraham Agreed, but just sharing the BestPrac doesn't innovate unless ur sharing it within an OI environment or Entrepreneurs. #KMers
5:47 pm CDN: I think most often Best Practice is Old (outdated) Practice. #Innovation breaks with Best Practice! #KMers
5:47 pm mneff: Innovation is about establishing next practices. Staying ahead. Provinding something of more value. #kmers
5:47 pm 4KM: @BarbLeonCO Thanks & very interesting. Wonder if motives relate to litigation or ethics or rewards of being excellent? #KMers
5:47 pm technogenii: It's a continuum! RT @CDN: I think most often Best Practice is Old (outdated) Practice. Innovation breaks with Best Practice! #KMers

5:49 pm jmcgee: RT @mneff: Innovation is about establishing next practices. Staying ahead. Providing something of more value. #kmers - nice phrase
5:49 pm 4KM: RT @CDN: ...often Best Practice is outdated Practice. #Innovation breaks w Bst Prctc! <& importance of context; how often to refresh. #KMers
5:50 pm CDN: Best Practice still has a role to play: it's the baseline from which #Innovation progress can be measured! #KMers
5:50 pm mneff: The KM part is making sure that best practices are generally available to make it easier to develop next practices. #kmers
5:50 pm JoeRaimondo: They key missing step in innovation practice is moving to monetization--how do you generate revenue or show sustainable cost cuts? #kmers
5:51 pm mneff: KM also allows the free flow of information so that the innovation cycle can be sped up. The challenge will be adoption. #kmers
5:51 pm 4KM: Re: @CDN: Best Practice as a baseline from which #Innovation progress can be measured! <Agree if environment is stable. #KMers
5:51 pm VMaryAbraham: Next/Best Practice is critical in areas of safety/risk. But these R also areas in which #innovation can be most valuable & rewarding. #kmers
5:51 pm hjarche: @cdn Best Practice is 100% backward looking - can't develop emergent practices that way - BP may be wrong baseline #KMers
5:51 pm BarbLeonCO: @KM Good question on motives. I'll have to think through this more fully. #KMers

6:02 pm CDN: #KMers chat - We are already running towards the end of this chat! Great discussion. There is a clear KM - Innovation relationship, but...
6:02 pm plantpixie: Thanks everyone for the lively conversation! #KMers
6:02 pm jeffhester: The key objective of #KM CoPs is not to maintain an archive, but to ferret out innovation that supports business strategy #KMers
6:02 pm CDN: It seems to me that a lot in the KM - Innovation relationship still needs to be worked out. Practitioners need to work together... #KMers

6:09 pm mneff: @cablelady5 One tweet at a time. #kmers
6:09 pm sscullion: @mneff LOL! I wonder how often that actually happens! Is that a valid fear resulting in a barrier to sharing? I think it is for many #kmers
6:09 pm technogenii: @mneff @sscullion Authority of info & credibility of author is still and issue in Social Media, we need more peer review #KMers
6:10 pm CDN: @clarionwave There's an appropriate #KM saying: well stolen is half done! #KMers
6:11 pm cablelady5: @mneff Thank you. I came in late, so reading back through #KMers

6:12 pm dineshtantri: @JoeRaimondo - I agree there is a overlap between KM and innovation as long as the former enables serendipity #KMers
6:12 pm ideas4all: RT @mneff: Innovation is about establishing next practices. Staying ahead. Provinding something of more value. #kmers
6:13 pm cablelady5: @CDN Isnt that the fear of sharing innovative ideas via KM..who gets credit? #KMers
6:14 pm CDN: @dineshtantri About ?How much of KM do the most innovative companies in the world do?? - Check out the MAKE directory. #KMers
6:15 pm mneff: @cablelady5 That is the fear of some. Most KMers do not care who gets the credit as long as something useful is actually done. #kmers
6:16 pm CDN: MAKE = Most Admired Knowledge Enterprises http://tinyurl.com/2sbtfp (for @dineshtantri et al) #KMers
6:17 pm cablelady5: @mneff I think it is the top-down philosophy- silos are created from the top down #KMers
6:18 pm mneff: @cablelady5 Agree. Challenges exist in getting people to collaborate across silos since the management structure lacks incentives. #kmers
6:20 pm mneff: Some innovation happening there. Getting them to tie their bonuses to overall performance and not just their own. Fine line. #kmers

6:27 pm mneff: Best business case is getting them to understand the value of KM for their specific goals. #kmers
6:27 pm edublogging: RT @technogenii @mneff @sscullion Authority of info & credibility of author still an issue in Social Media, we need more peer review #KMers
