Disciplined highly-skilled workforce operates more efficiently with a proven knowledge economy, an important business edge

KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT

Your knowledge economy
is an important business edge

Businesses operate most efficiently when a highly-skilled workforce shares a proven knowledge economy, and effective knowledge management disciplines can increase company productivity. Today, companies that treat knowledge management as a priority asset are more resilient, fiercely competitive, and market-ready.

With shareable knowledge management, your organization has a ‘single source of truth’ — made up of a library of knowledge bases and systems that enable teams to access information, facilitate training, and foster collaboration. An effective knowledge management system reduces costs of inefficiency by making company knowledge more available, accessible, and accurate.

However, knowledge is frequently undocumented and difficult to access. The proliferation of third-party apps can mean that useful information increasingly lives within silos within organizations. Further, people can be poor at transferring knowledge, making teams less productive by either searching for or replicating information that already exists.

Six Factor can guide your company to implement a shareable knowledge management platform — particularly important for today as teams are much more distributed. Whether your solution is large or small, we can get you started. To find out how we can assist you with your knowledge economy, contact the Products Team at 604.425.2266 today.

Increase Collaboration

The benefits of increased collaboration become more visible over time. At first, you might see the core benefit of collaboration as the ability to share knowledge and expertise quickly and easily. However, collaboration is a great motivator for improving skill sets and solving problems.

Six Factor knows that operating a collaborative team environment is no simple feat — it takes a concerted effort to integrate unified values throughout your entire organization’s ethos. We can provide strategies for how you can improve collaboration within your organization and how you can ensure better communication of your company’s expectations as to collaboration.

Better Communication

Business communication involves a constant flow of information within and outside an organization, and effective communication skills are fundamental to success. Organizations of any size can struggle with the hierarchy of effective business communication, particularly in how management and staff teams interact to reach organizational goals and be more aligned with core company values.

Six Factor can advise you on how to implement a strong culture of success through better communication and to operate more successfully. The main purpose of better communication is to improve organizational practices, eliminate silos, keep staff informed of guidelines, values, and regulations and policies — thereby reducing disorientation and increasing motivation and skills.

Implement a Strong Culture

Improve your organizational practices, eliminate silos, and keep staff informed and motivated through strong company culture — one that is deeply embedded into the way you do things. With a strong culture, staff and management understand what is required of them and they will try to act in accordance with the core values.

Organizations built on a clearly defined set of core values, consistently applied, use their strong culture as a source of competitive advantage. A weak culture can arise when the core values are not clearly defined, communicated or widely accepted by those working for the organization.

Implementing a strong company culture is the shared set of values, beliefs and attitudes that guide an organization. It’s reflected in the ways customers and staff are treated. A strong company culture boosts productivity, decreases turnover and improves employee engagement.

Six Factor can inform your business on how to be more intentional, communicate core values and initiatives, and create a strong and positive work culture that will inspire teams to collaborate together and help an organization thrive.
