International KeynoteJames Robertson, Managing Director, Step Two Designs
James is a thought leader on the topics of web content management and intranet strategy. He has worked with many organisations in both the public and private sectors, including Fortune 500 companies. His primary focus is on the strategic aspects of information management and on the organisational change required to deliver effective business outcomes. He also has a deep understanding of usability, information architecture and user-centred design. He is the author of What Every Intranet Team Should Know.
Topic: The Future of Intranets
To this point, intranets have been the dumping ground for corporate documents and organisation-wide news, little connected to KM objectives. With the advent of new technologies, this is changing rapidly in many organisations. James gives us a global perspective on what the future of intranets will look like, and what it will mean for KM.

Tea break
10.45am
Singapore KeynoteMaish Nichani, Founding Partner, PebbleRoad
Maish Nichani is principal at PebbleRoad, a user experience consultancy specializing in intranets, websites and apps. He has worked with all types of organisations from global giants to local non-profits, helping them unearth value and improve the customer experience. He is also the author of the Manager’s Guidebook on Intranet Redesign Projects.
Topic: Iceberg Intranet Projects: Excellent Implementation, Traumatic Adoption
So your intranet project is finally done. You have met with many staff and figured out the requirements, the information architecture and the brand. The systems folks have worked frantically over the last four months putting things together. It should be a time to celebrate, shouldn’t it? Many project teams are finding out that the months following the intranet launch are traumatic at best. The “killer app” is not being used. Collaboration is in disarray. Content is missing. People are going back to email. Why is there such a big gap in expectations? What is missing? In this talk, Maish will guide you through the traps of an intranet design project. By being aware of these traps we can plan ahead and dedicate the time and resources needed to deal with them, rather than wait with crossed fingers till the very end hoping that they will not show up. They usually do!
11.45am
Practitioner Case Presentation
Roxanna Samii, International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD)
Roxanna is responsible for IFAD’s web-based communication channels, social media channels, internal communications and numerous corporate KM activities.

IFAD is an international financial organisation and a specialised United Nations agency based in Rome, Italy.
Topic: Giving a Voice to the Voiceless using Social Media
How can social media add value to our work and help us disseminate our messages without coming across as propaganda? And how can we exploit the power and potential of social media tools? Roxanna will share how IFAD is using social media to raise awareness about agriculture and the role of smallholder producers in feeding future generation.

International KeynoteGary Klein, PhD
Gary is the author of Sources of Power (named one of the best books of the millennium) and Intuition at Work. He is a research psychologist renowned for his pioneering work in the field of naturalistic decision making. He has notably worked with the U.S. Marine Corps, firefighters and business organisations in determining the role intuition plays in individual performance.
Topic: The Cognitive Dimension of KM
As highly skilled professionals retire, there is an opportunity to try to discover their secrets and the basis of their skills in order to preserve this knowledge and pass it on to the next generation. This type of KM quest can be very successful as long as the skills involve explicit knowledge. However, expertise usually depends on tacit knowledge, which poses a challenge to KM efforts. In this talk, Gary will discuss a Semi-Directed approach to expertise retention, one that is structured around specific questions but flexible enough to make discoveries.

Tea break
10.45am
Singapore KeynotePatrick Lambe, Founding Partner, Straits Knowledge
Patrick is one of Asia’s most respected KM practitioners. Originally trained in Library Science, he arrived in KM via a second career in training and development. Patrick is the author of Organising Knowledge: Taxonomies, Knowledge and Organisation Effectiveness, an Adjunct Professor in KM at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, 2-term past President of the iKMS and a member of the editorial advisory board of the Journal of Knowledge Management.
Topic: Smart People, Stupid Organisation: How do organisations produce ignorance and how can we overcome this?
Organisations process information to coordinate their activities, possess organisational memory, and adapt to changing environments, just as individuals do. But they are not the sum of the intelligence of their people. Organisations are often structured to ignore the knowledge that is at their disposal. In this talk, Patrick will describe some of the main forms of organisational ignorance and discuss with participants ways of overcoming this ignorance.
11.45am
