Dwight Eisenhower was the general of the allied troops in Europe during the World War. One of the brilliant things about him was that he was fantastic at holding news conferences. Whenever a question was asked, he would have all the data, encapsulated in two-three very elegant sentences. But when he became the President, people found that he got very negative press because most of the press people felt that this guy was incoherent. He never listened to any questions. You asked him one thing and he went off on a tangent on some thing else. This surprised many people.

Very Interesting .The discussion took place way back in 2005........
Modernizing Knowledge Management

Welcome to the key conundrum of the technological age—there are more ways than ever before to store and communicate information, and yet it remains locked in human heads where it can't be accessed. For the 21st century organization to thrive, companies need to knock finally the issue of knowledge management—compiling, organizing, and accessing the knowledge that's in people's heads, without putting an undue administrative burden on how people work. Is such a thing even possible? How do you store knowledge for future—and thus unknown—collaboration needs?

Have been reading and hearing about how KM in major companies make a success of it.

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 12, 2006--Today at CTIA Wireless I.T. and Entertainment® 2006, Glu Mobile, a leading creator and global publisher of mobile entertainment, announced results of qualitative and quantitative research conducted in conjunction with U30 Group, Inc. (www.u30.com).

This was somewhat expected, as the schedule also dictated that the games track for the mobile conference would start just as a keynote Q&A session with Ray Manzarek of The Doors was scheduled to end. People continued to flow into the room, a quick jaunt downstairs from the above keynote, as the panel in front swiftly ran through introductions.

“Success happens from the inside out.” - Jeanne Sharbuno

Most of us, according to Jeanne Sharbuno, live from the outside in. She is correct. Most of us would like to make as much money and worldly possessions as possible and then would plan to relax. As it is said, there are three things that God did not understand after creating human beings:

1. They spent half of their life earning at the cost of their health and they spent the entire earning to regain the lost health.
