Welcome & Keynote: Complexity Informed Agility in Knowledge Management

Will Evans, Chief Design Officer, Praxis Flow Design Thinker-in-Residence, NYU Stern's Berkley Center for Innovation & Entrepreneurship
Although the application of agile methods to software development is most common, the heart of agile is knowledge management. Agile relies on direct communication and intense collaboration across an integrated team of subject matter experts. Agile focuses on concurrent efforts with learning built into all phases and levels of the effort. Our experts in agile and KM provide a lively discussion of the types of knowledge, key methods of transferring and sharing knowledge, and how these can lead to innovation.
Unbounded Discovery: Designing a Taxonomy-Driven User Experience
9:45 a.m. - 10:00 a.m.
Taxonomies are a proven enabler for information discovery as distinct from targeted search. How does one interpret and anticipate user needs and intentions when designing an information system? When do they need more options, fewer options, and how can they get reoriented should they go down a blind alley? Clarke explores how taxonomies, metadata, and graph queries can help transcend these design challenges and deliver an exceptionally engaging user experience.
