Whistleblowing - Are You Getting the Help You Need?
29th April 2013
Reportedly there is now unprecedented awareness of anti-corruption regulation but the UK fraud prevention service finds that the incidence of whistleblowing is still exceptionally low. Perhaps the current staff oversight model is broken; maybe information companies may face special challenges in dealing with internal corruption? Meanwhile consultation is underway on ways to better protect whistleblowers. This could present opportunities for information professionals to have their say and cement their place in their organisation’s risk and compliance function.

But, despite services like Thomson Reuters’ Accelus Disclosure Solutions, there’s always the risk of unauthorised premature announcements. Pressure from Ovum on European banks to improve their social media presence, and new UK rules on directors’ remuneration reporting, could also complicate the situation – not to mention findings from Pew that social media comment may not even be representative of opinion generally.
The Importance of Knowledge Management and KM Roles
24th April 2013
In an organisation that has been using knowledge management for a while there are likely to be several roles that facilitate the creation and dissemination of knowledge, identify the KM strategy, choose the KM tools, help users make the most of the KM system, and much more. The question is, "Why are these roles so important?" James Mullan explores KM in organisations and identifies key roles and responsibilities.
