    S2 Ep3 - Beyond the Learning Culture: Building Networks That Learn with Inkeri

    What happens when organizations stop thinking about learning as something that happens to people and start thinking about it as something they build with people?   Inkeri Lonnrot takes us on a journey through the changing world of work, strategic capabilities, and organizational foresight before diving into her own path to knowledge management. We explore the Finnish approach to learning and KM, and what it can teach us about creating organizations that are ready for what’s next.   We also get practical, digging into the Agile Team Learning Framework, psychological safety, and what it takes to create meaningful learning experiences when your team is working remotely. Along the way, we talk communities of practice, breaking down silos, building learning networks, and creating the conditions for people to learn from one another.   Because a learning culture doesn't happen because you put “learning” in the strategy document. It happens when people have the space, safety, relationships, and networks to actually learn together. Connect with Inkeri on LinkedIn The Learning Framework Toolkit Learn more about Kuulas & Co

    S2 Ep3 - What KM + HCM Collaboration Can Look Like in Practice

    This is Episode 2 of a 2 part series. What happens when knowledge management and human capital management stop working in parallel and start working together? In this episode, Brittany and Rachel are joined by Liz McLean, bringing the KM perspective, and Elissa Tucker, Lead HCM Researcher at APQC, to explore why the future of work depends on stronger collaboration between these two disciplines. They dig into everything from data governance and workforce planning to AI-driven upskilling, knowledge sharing, and the challenges of getting different teams to speak the same language. The conversation highlights why reframing KM around business outcomes—not just knowledge—is key to building stronger partnerships across organizations. Liz and Elissa also discuss taking a more human-centered approach to learning and development by recognizing employees' unique strengths, embracing diverse perspectives, and creating environments where people can learn from one another, not just from technology. Whether you're in KM, HR, learning and development, or simply trying to prepare your organization for what's next, this episode offers practical insights into breaking down silos, building collaborative cultures, and keeping people at the center of every strategy.

    S2 Ep2 - AI, Workforce Skill Gaps, and Why This Isn't a KM-Only Conversation

    This is Episode 1 of a 2 part series. AI is changing the way we work, but it isn't going to solve your organization's skills gap on its own. In this episode, we're joined by Liz McLean, Strategic AI+KM Roadmap Advisor at Knosaic, who brings the knowledge management perspective, and Elissa Tucker, Lead Human Capital Management Researcher at APQC, who shares the HCM perspective. Together, they explore why KM and HR need to be working together—not in separate lanes. We talk about upskilling, reskilling, internal mobility, and what it really takes to help people move into new roles without losing critical knowledge along the way. We also explore why onboarding is really a knowledge transfer challenge, how remote and hybrid work have changed the way we share what we know, and why building a culture of learning requires more than just good intentions. If you've ever wondered where KM fits into workforce planning, talent development, or AI strategy, this conversation connects the dots.

    S2 Ep1 - Tacit Happens: Unlocking Tacit Knowledge with Brittany & Rachel

    Tacit knowledge is the stuff people just know—the experience, instincts, relationships, and lessons that don't show up in a process document or SOP. In this episode, Brittany and Rachel explore why that knowledge is often an organization's greatest asset, why it's so difficult to capture, and what happens when it walks out the door. They discuss the emotional side of knowledge transfer, practical strategies for preserving expertise, and how AI can support the process without replacing the human connection that makes tacit knowledge so valuable.
