Effective knowledge sharing is much more difficult than you might think. The basic process involves the distribution of knowledge throughout a corporate entity. In order to be effective, this sharing of knowledge must be rapid and it must be thorough, reaching every relevant stratum of a business.

Re-Imagining the Relationship of Citizens to Power-Holders Through “Accountapreneurship”.

Spending time on the ground in countries like Liberia and Nepal, it soon becomes clear that despite good intentions, we still have very little idea how best to support the accountability of power-holders to citizens.

E-governance initiatives, heavily touted as the ICT revolution took off in the past decade, have generally not lived up to expectations or functioned as effectively as hoped by many citizens. A number of these initiatives famously drew in significant amounts of public funds but produced online systems that were difficult to use, over-priced and based on clunky back-end architectures. Many of those projects that did work were not so much examples of e-governance as “i-government”- through…
