I recently wrote an article for the Henley Forum on what I call Societal Knowledge Management that takes a somewhat different perspective to many others on the future of Knowledge Management.
Early in the article, I make the point that Knowledge Management did not start in 1991 or thereabouts. KM started 50,000 earlier when something amazing happened – the emergence of speech and language and with it the cultural big bang.
With the cultural big bang came a great leap forward. Now we could pass down our knowledge from generation to generation much faster through cumulative cultural evolution and not the biologically slower process through our genes.
The article draws on and is linked to much of the material in my book. You can find it here — Societal Knowledge Management.
