My name is Henrik Togero and I am a researcher and consultant at SERC
(software engineering research center) in Melbourne, Australia. Im
particularly looking at problems like "knowledge loss" within the
telecommunication/computer industry. With "knowledge loss" I mean the
processes within a company that counteracts "learning".
A hypothesis is that "knowledge" within this business has a half life of
five years. I am trying to verify this and work out what are the
organizational implications and also how to be proactive to minimize any
critical loss. Reasons for losing vital knowledge might be turnover
of knowledge workers but also poor procedures for knowledge storing,
sharing and retrieving. Would be most grateful if anyone had any ideas
about this.
