3. Agenda
- Why (and how) did the CSIR became
interested in technology stewardship?
- What are the practical value and
implications of technology stewardship
for knowledge management
initiatives? Is this not something KM
practitioners have been doing all along?
- What are the traits of value-adding
technology stewardship?
- What’s next in terms of technology
stewardship for the CSIR?
8. “Technology stewards are people with enough
experience of the workings of a community to
understand its technology needs, and enough experience
with technologyto take leadership in addressing
those needs. Stewardship typically includes selecting and
configuring technology, as well as supporting its use in
the practice of the community .”
Digital Habitats (Wenger, Smith, White)
14. What are the practical value and implications of
technology stewardship for knowledge management
initiatives?
Is this not something KM practitioners have been
doing all along?
Is this part of the KM agenda?

• It is about the second wavers
• Geeky friends, information specialist friends, communications friends
• Ambient awareness of community, community boundaries and technology use
• Mindful learning agenda
What are the traits of value-adding
technology stewardship? (3)
25. What’s next in terms of technology
stewardship for the CSIR?
Focused initiatives

Overcoming tool barriers?
Embedding technology
stewardship in relevant places
Digital literacy?

28. Waves are funny things. Think of ocean
waves. They go up and down, they can
be gentle or pound us into the sand.
Just when we think we have their
rhythm, the next wave changes and
surprises us. The key is staying alert,
knowing how to swim and to expect
the unexpected.

1948 architectures for knowledge – wide passages, tea rooms.
Or is it not that hard? Do you agree or disagree?
Collaboration shouldn’t be an elusive practice. We recognize we can and must work together. We recognize that technology has changed what it means to work together, both when we are in the same place or scattered across the globe. We have the business imperatives. We have the technology. Yet why does it remain so hard?
Interesting – but what to use or not to use?
There is a rich history of real experience. The tools and modalities we have today is not that new and also not without roots. The technology/social reciprocal influence is ongoing for a long long time – even prior to PCs and digital networks.
Is this a KM thing? Accidental?
Is this not what the good BAs are doing?
Any different from Change Management?
This is probably not of much help for the community…
