I’m happy to announce that De Gruyter, my publisher in Berlin and Munich, has published my latest commentary, posted on February 4 in De Gruyter Conversations.
The title is We Need to Talk: How Knowledge Sharing Catalyses Post-Pandemic Recovery, and you can see it by clicking on the title or by clicking here.
Please send any comments to me at guystclair@smr-knowledge.com.
I hope this is of interest to you as we move forward toward the end of this awful pandemic.

But I see that the original post was published more than two years ago. Was there are any update for this elsewhere on the page?
Dear Loyce Hand,
The post you’ve seen was actually published on February 4, 2021 at De Gruyter, the publisher in Munich.
In July, 2021 the subject for the KM/Knowledge Services Community Discussion Forum was about what knowledge services will be like after the pandemic.
The topic created considerable (and many) good thoughts. Here is some of what we picked up from the chat comments:
1. A very important consideration (and a provocative suggestion) was that we knowledge strategists – instead of thinking in terms of “recovery” – might move to thinking about “realignment” as we consider what comes next.
2. We also recognized that in knowledge services, it would be an advantage to begin thinking about a distributed work force, so that the knowledge “framework” (as we often refer to what we do) might become of part of the organization or community’s more “spread-out” management and functional operations.
3. Another valuable consideration came up when one of the group suggested we take a positive attitude to some of what we are going to be facing, and in particular give attention to some of the “good things” (a good way of putting it) that come up when we’re trying to address some of the chronic concerns relating to information and knowledge sharing.
In doing so, we could find ourselves – as knowledge strategists – with a variety of opportunities for defining and re-defining information sharing values within the organization, community, or group.
4. Building on this, we knowledge strategists can impact the knowledge strategy in terms of resourcing and priorities and, as quickly grew out of the discussion, give us even more evidence that KM/knowledge services is very human-centric: key players matter.
I hope this is of interest to you.
All the best, Guy
