Knowledge Value Chain® Clinic

The Knowledge Value Chain® is a model for effective evidence-based decision-making.  The KVC model can be applied in a diverse range of situations. The KVC Clinic teaches your team the basics of this powerful, proven approach—and how you can use it to raise the effectiveness of intelligence and other knowledge work in supporting your organization’s strategies.

The KVC Clinic is conducted at your site, and typically takes 2 days to complete.  It’s based on a Master’s level course developed at a major university.  It goes way beyond “101-level” group training, and incorporates deeper hands-on learning and problem-solving exercises.  That’s why we call it a “clinic”—our goal is to accomplish useful, applicable work.  And it’s priced comparably with more basic intelligence training offered by others.

We’ll raise your “return on intelligence”

We’re confident that your intelligence ROI will improve significantly as a direct result of this Clinic and using the tools and techniques you’ll gain here, including how to:

  • Raise the ROI of any intelligence or knowledge process
  • Produce value-added intelligence that has immediate usefulness
  • Consistently satisfy, and even anticipate, the needs of decision-makers
  • Become “invited to the table” when key decisions are being made

We learn by doing

The KVC Clinic employs a powerful combination of techniques to identify and solve intelligence problems:

  • Group instruction. Basic materials are presented in classroom format. We reinforce core insights with corporate-quality, professionally-designed graphics.
  • Workbook. Each participant receives a personal copy of the The Knowledge Value Chain® Workbook containing slides, text, and other clinic discussion and reference materials.
  • Diagnostic assessment. We conduct a confidential baseline KVC assessment during the Clinic. This allows participants to begin to diagnose and solve their most pressing intelligence problems.
  • Open discussion. Participants are encouraged to actively contribute intelligence problems that need solving. We discuss real-world examples of how the KVC model applies to their own situations.
  • Follow-up. The Clinic’s sponsoring organization receives a customized written summary of the group’s work.  This is useful in creating follow-up initiatives to reinforce and build on Clinic insights.
