To prosper in today's economy it is critical to manage enterprise knowledge from the “outside-in” not from the “inside-out.” The introspective corporate strategies, tactics and centralized information systems of the past don't hold water in the new knowledge-intensive environments of today.

Leading executives, professionals and knowledge managers are slowly mastering this key shift. They strive to validate and enhance zones of collaboration, sharing, learning, context and community for people across today's longitudinal enterprise value-chain.

Quite simply, the new organizing foundation for the enterprise is the networked marketplace. In the future, business collaboration will surpass competition and rivalry as the key tool for sustained business development, wealth creation and innovation. The top organizations will ease the ability to instantly craft the knowledge nexus and continuously drive frictionless, real-time inter-firm knowledge environments.

Every strata of the enterprise must implement the new networked value ethos of interactive reconnaissance, synthesis, innovation and performance. They must establish interactive, self-managing processes and teams. These new processes are network proximate and operate preemptively. Leaders must assure these robust, fail-safe knowledge networks are adaptive and their processes excel instantly, perpetually and globally.

The Toronto KM Cluster has assembled a terrific team of experts to examine the future of the "Real-Time Knowledge Enterprise," on September 24, 2003 in Toronto, Canada from 8AM-5PM.
