The Knowledge Value Chain® Workbook, a key feature of TKA’s clinics and workshops, is now available on its own. You asked for it, and you got it!
IN STOCK - Version 3.2 now available. US$100. plus shipping.
The KVC Workbook is a 120-page oversize (8 1/2 x 11″) spiral-bound book containing slides, text, and other KVC Clinic discussion and reference materials. This is a limited-edition, deluxe version, printed in full color on heavy paper.
The Workbook contains four major sections:
Introduction - A series of short essays about the organizational applications of knowledge and intelligence. Some of these appear in the “Stories” part of this site.
The Knowledge Value Chain® - 90 illustrated PowerPoint slides that form the basis of KVC clinics and workshops, most annotated with speaker’s notes. This contains sections on basic KVC Principles and on KVC Applications in solving business problems.
The KVC ScorecardTM - A 67-point checklist system you can implement to ensure the quality of intelligence and other knowledge processes and products.
The Knowledge Value Chain: How to Fix It When It Breaks - A 2001 monograph that describes the KVC model and its implications for business.
The Workbook is written in English. However, it contains a minimum of business jargon, and key points are highlighted in slide bullet-points. In this way, we’ve tried to make it easily understood by people whose primary language is other than English.
Hear what KVC users say
The Workbook is a basic user’s manual for any knowledge-based process. The head of the information center at a large pharmaceuticals firm says, “We were looking for ways to describe visually what our work consists of. The KVC model gives us the tools to do that.”
Another Workbook user, former SCIP President Mark Little, agrees. “I like the KVC as a teaching and diagnostic tool. Your model is easily understood by anyone who has spent even a month inside a business. By explaining intelligence to the many people who don’t understand it, it adds to intelligence—and ultimately, to value.”
With some imagination and initiative, you can begin the apply the KVC model on your own using just the Workbook. Of course, we’re glad to help if and when you need. TKA offers clinics, diagnostic assessments, and consulting to help you maximize the benefits from the KVC model.
