Maximizing Consultant-Client Partnerships: Key Success Factors

Whether we are in business for ourselves or working for a larger organization, most of us in the information profession have been in the role of consultant (providing knowledge or expertise to others) and client (receiving knowledge or services from someone else). The session focuses on enabling attendees to make the most of such partnership opportunities, including negotiating for services, understanding the roles of the consultant and the client, establishing consultant access to and sharing of information, agreeing on deliverables and time lines, addressing "bumps along the road," and enabling partnership beyond the project. Ilene Strongin-Garry, a former client, will complement the session by speaking about the consulting experience from the client perspective.

Presenting Information in Visual Formats: Tools for Adding Insights and Value to Your Deliverables

In an age of DIY search tools and information overload, it's no longer a matter of how much information you find - it's what you do with it. Our clients crave answers and insights – not more information – and research professionals need to find new ways to deliver results in order to stay relevant. Displaying research results in charts, diagrams, data maps, and other visual formats adds impact and brings clarity where words often fail. In this session, Marcy Phelps shares some low-cost techniques for packaging and delivering information that's useful to clients, while increasing your value. Learn how to choose the right information graphic, simple tools for creating graphics, and tips for communicating your message more effectively - and no coding required. Bring your laptops and create some templates that you can use right away!

Program Take-Aways

Participants will identify three reasons why presenting information in visual formats adds value to deliverables.

Fundamentals of Knowledge Management and Knowledge Services (KMKS101)

This course links knowledge management (KM) theory to knowledge services (KS), the management methodology that brings together information management, KM, and strategic learning. Throughout the larger organization, the goal of knowledge services--characterized as the practical side of KM--is to strengthen research and enterprise-wide knowledge asset management, thus enabling contextual decision making and accelerated innovation. Participants learn techniques for implementing knowledge services--that is, for "putting KM to work"--and, in so doing, learn to support the organization as a knowledge culture. Topics include KM/KS history and an exploration of the KM/KS framework (people, process and technology). Participants will develop an action plan to take back to their organization.

Program Take-Aways

Participants will be able to describe knowledge services and their role in effective strategy development and implementation.

Participants will be able to apply and demonstrate the role of KM and knowledge services to management and knowledge workers.

Video Magic! Production Advice and Secrets

Go behind the scenes with our speakers as they explain the process of creating videos and share their tips for creating an attention-getting production. Learn how to avoid the dreaded "talking heads" video and the one that drones on … and on. Discover what to expect when engaging the services of a videographer or production company and the sequential process of creating a viedo from start to finish. And for those of you who are DIY, pick up tips for your own video efforts. What's your story? Your narrative voice? Your message and desired outcomes? Do you have a creative device or hook? What's the "shoot schedule" , location, and who's going to be in your video? Will there be scripts? Storyboards? And then there's music, editing, file format, and distribution options. Videos featuring information service customers are popular in-house communications tools, but they've got to be done right otherwise no one will watch them. Join us for lunch as we learn about producing videos, watch examples by seasoned videographers, and have our video production questions answered.

If you want to attend this engaging session but don't want to buy the conference lunch, please feel free to bring your own lunch and join us.
