Value as a Knowledge Professional

January 25, 2014

The article on SMR titled Are You Valued? How Indispensable is the Strategic Knowledge Professional? is an invitation from Guy St. Clair to his free webinar brought to you by Soutron Global. St. Clair is a well-known librarian and knowledge management professional who has served as the president of the Special Libraries Association and lectured at Columbia University. The article suggests the topics of the webinar,

“In November, at the last Soutron Global Transforming Libraries Webinar, I spoke about how we move to a new role as the organization’s knowledge thought leader. I gave special attention to the role of the librarian (or other collections manager) as strategic knowledge professional, with the emphasis on our role as influencer, communicator, and doer (as I phrased it in the webinar). You can see the slide deck from that webinar here.”

He suggests a few thoughtful queries that will accompany his talk, such as what is the standing of knowledge services in your association? He demands that people ask themselves if they are valued as a knowledge professional. The seminar also promises to offer tips on improving the economic feasibility of increasing knowledge assets while cutting costs. There will also be a concluding Question and Answer session.
