Opening Keynote: How to Survive in Knowledge Management, with Bonnie Cheuk, Chris Collison, and Roznita Othman
What does it take to survive and prosper in knowledge management? In this keynote panel we bring together three "survivors" in knowledge management to share their stories of persistence, challenge and success: Bonnie Cheuk, who has worked for over 20 years in a series of senior roles in knowledge management, business transformation and digital transformation; Chris Collison, who worked on the pioneering knowledge management team at BP in the late 1990s, and has since worked as an independent consultant with many different organizations worldwide; and Roznita Othman who spent more than ten years building and deepening a knowledge management programme within the Public Works Department Malaysia. Discover what it takes to achieve success in both breadth and depth from our three KM survivors!
