What is the knowledge of your company and your employees worth?
Every entrepreneur should be able to answer this question.
Have you also asked yourself whether you are doing enough to secure this valuable intellectual capital in the long term? Yes, no, maybe?
Departing employees and inadequate documentation of work processes are sources of knowledge loss. Counteracting this and smartly bundling and transferring know-how within the company is a crucial task that every company must pursue.
These 3 principles must be observed:
- Retain expert knowledge
Skilled workers are a key economic factor. 55% of German companies see a shortage of skilled workers as the number one threat and, according to forecasts, the situation will continue to worsen in the coming years*. This makes it all the more important to use modern technologies to capture the knowledge of employees efficiently – i.e. quickly, easily, comprehensibly and directly in everyday life. Only in this way can it be securely preserved and passed on within the company. - Ensure you are “up to date“
Processes and systems are subject to constant change, which is why it is more important than ever to keep pace with rapid changes. Always give your employees, partners and customers a head start and inform and train them about changes in good time. This is the only way to quickly close qualification gaps and strengthen competitiveness. - Visualize interrelationships
A good visualization of interrelationships is essential for complex issues. Good 2D images as well as realistic 3D models in virtual or augmented reality can help here. Studies show that learning success can be increased through the use of VR/AR content. Take advantage of the opportunities offered by these technologies and combine them as an additional tool in your learning concepts and platforms such as e-learning and blended learning.
