The actKM knowledge management forum announces that it is holding its 2011 conference in cosmopolitan Melbourne. Once again, the cost will be held at the very affordable price of $690 per person or $590 per person for early bird registration or a team of five.

We are looking for participants that are passionate about how organisations are managed.  You should be prepared to enthusiastically engage with other KM/OD practitioners and professionals that are willing to share their experiences or views on our theme of ‘what keeps CEOs awake at night - how KM can address the top challenges facing today’s leaders’.

Keynote Speakers

We can announce that we have lured:

Phillip Ruthven, Chairman IBISWorld Pty Ltd, and

Matthew Tukaki, Chief Executive Officer of the Sustain Group Pty Ltd

…as our keynote speakers for the conference.  Both of these gentlemen have had outstanding business careers leading major corporations and have a profound understanding of the value of intellectual capital in organisations.

Following on from the keynotes we have the following outstanding KM professionals facilitate strategies and techniques to address the issues:
