Every act of knowledge sharing for social benefit creates new knowledge and strengthens understanding to make the world a better place.

Start With The Knowledge You Have

Leave a Comment Posted by KMbeing on April 11, 2013

Remember, changing the world and harmful social conditions doesn’t depend on who you are or what you own – it depends mostly on the knowledge you share – whatever that knowledge is – if it’s intended for benefit and not for harm. You change the world by using even the “limited” knowledge you have. Start by being you with the knowledge you have…and keep going.

Not Sharing Your Knowledge

Not sharing your knowledge for social benefit is easy – but that’s not what knowledge is for.

No Knowledge Being Shared By Two People Are The Same

Leave a Comment Posted by KMbeing on March 23, 2013

No two people are the same and no knowledge being shared by two people are the same. It’s impossible to say that all knowledge can ever be the same. Individual experiences and contexts create different knowledge. Each person has different realities and perceptions. It may be possible to draw general similarities in knowledge and it’s always much easier to find differences in knowledge; but how an individual chooses to share their knowledge to find common ground for social benefit is what makes a difference. Learning to co-create new knowledge from diverse knowledge sources for everyone’s benefit is what makes the world a better place.

Equality Of Knowledge vs Equity Of Knowledge

1 Comment Posted by KMbeing on March 15, 2013

Not all knowledge is of the same value – but all knowledge for social benefit can contribute to making the world a better place. The difference between equality of knowledge and equity of knowledge is providing opportunities to level the playing field in sharing knowledge.

Knowledge Is Not Solid

1 Comment Posted by KMbeing on March 11, 2013

Knowledge is not solid. When exposed to the knowledge of other people, knowledge morphs – by the very act of sharing knowledge – into an ongoing, flowing and ever-changing form.

Your Unique Knowledge Fingerprint

Leave a Comment Posted by KMbeing on February 16, 2013

A person’s knowledge may be called ignorant, useless, mocked and devalued, but our knowledge – stemming from all of our personal life experiences – is always knowledge, and is always our own knowledge.

Others can say all the negative things they want about you and your knowledge, but the only way that it will affect you is if you allow their words to affect you. Again, your knowledge is your own knowledge, all the good, bad and ugly of the experiences that make up all of your knowledge in your lifetime. Just as your fingerprint is unique to you – so too is your knowledge to share with others.

Your knowledge – any of it at anytime in your life experience – can always teach others something, whether you think it’s “limited” or not.

But knowledge on its own, without turning it into action is limited. It’s like having hands and fingers (and fingerprints) without ever using them.

It’s how we share our knowledge; combine our knowledge to make the world a better place that creates the most value.

Some people are so insecure that they try to hurt others by knocking even the slightest amount of knowledge that a person may have, to take away their dignity or self-esteem. But if we believe a cruel, insecure person’s view that our knowledge is useless, if we let them take away our dignity, what does that say about how we see our own knowledge, about how we see ourselves?

People have acquired knowledge in war, in prison, in concentration camps, in abuse, in difficult social situations, in loss, in love, in friendship, in ignorance, in education, in failure and in success – why shouldn’t we value any of the knowledge we have where we are, right here and right now?

But again, knowledge on its own, without turning it into action is limited.

A person’s knowledge always has some value. Sharing our knowledge for social benefit creates greater value, and is always worth it. When we share our knowledge with this understanding and intention – we can use our own knowledge to make the world a better place.

Knowledge Mobilization Post With The Most 2012

Leave a Comment Posted by KMbeing on December 30, 2012

Below you will find a repost of KMbeing’s most viewed post for the year 2012. My KMbeing blog about Knowledge Mobilization (KMb) takes a more philosophical and holistic approach to knowledge sharing in order to create social benefit through KMb and knowledge exchange to make the world a better place. It seems to continue to gain more popularity with this inclusive and humanist approach, and I am very humbled and grateful to my many KMbeing blog followers who find value and inspiration in my shorter and longer posts – while also sharing knowledge for social benefit. I am also humbled and thankful for being voted for the second year in a row as one of the top ten in the Knowledge Mobilizer 100 people influencing our thinking about knowledge mobilization practice.

KMb is about sharing our knowledge and putting it into active service to help make the world a better place. So, it’s no surprise that this year’s post with the most for 2012 was a reflective question asking how we can help others to value their knowledge. I applaud all who recognize the connection between the value of our sharing knowledge with and from everyone for social benefit – and in so doing – making the world a better place to live.

Thanks again to all my followers who have made this year and the KMbeing blog so successful! I look forward to continuing to mobilize knowledge with you all in 2013!

A Holiday Knowledge Mobilization (KMb) Hope

Leave a Comment Posted by KMbeing on December 19, 2012

As the holiday season approaches and a New Year of hope is set to begin, I wish to thank the many followers of my KMbeing Knowledge Mobilization (KMb) blog from around the world from over 110 countries for your ongoing support, valued comments and constant encouragement – and wordpress.com for the amazing platform in which to share knowledge!

Knowledge is often symbolized by a tree. I felt the holiday card above is particularly appropriate as an expression of connected knowledge sharing from everyone around the world.

As many of you know, I have always taken a more holistic approach to KMb – seeing the idea of sharing knowledge for social benefit to create a better world as a possibility for everyone. Everyone has knowledge to share to make the world a better place – regardless of “intelligence” level, race, color, creed, gender, sexual orientation, nationality, religion or political affiliation. Combining all our knowledge beyond borders to create a truly collective human knowledge to make the world a better place is the answer – and the greatest hope for the future of humanity.

In the spirit of the season, I have put together a few borrowed words from some of the more popular and traditional Christmas songs that you may recognize – and though they are Christian in origin, they are meant to transcend all religious and political differences with the hope of someday using all of our collective personal knowledge for a better tomorrow! For Peace On Earth Will Not come Through Religion Or Politics – But From Shared Connected Human Knowledge to make every life on this planet a valued and appreciated life!

I wish you all best wishes for health & happiness at this time and peace into the New Year and beyond!

Away in our world, no home or a bed,

A hungry child lays down a sweet head.

No food is roasting on an open fire

As disease is nipping at someone’s toes

There’s no place to deck the halls with boughs of holly

No reason to be jolly

Do you see what I see?

As a star above is dancing in the night

Do you hear what I hear?

As a song is sung high above the trees

Do you know what I know?

The need for peace, people everywhere!

And by the light of that same star

Where all are wise that come from afar?

Now let us all with one accord

See that we can no longer afford

Two thousand years of wrong

With worlds at war for so long

Joy to the world! Is what we need

Let all people everywhere – their knowledge share

Repeat this sounding joy!

A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices

For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!

That leads to a silent night

When all is calm and all is bright

When we all can sleep in peace

On earth

Joy to the world! Is what we need

Let all people everywhere – their knowledge share

To overcome our problems faced

And make the world a better place

Repeat this sounding joy!

Sharing Knowledge With The People You Don’t Know

Leave a Comment Posted by KMbeing on December 17, 2012

Making the world a better place and creating new knowledge doesn’t come from sharing knowledge with the people you know. It comes from sharing knowledge with the people you don’t know.
