Gestión del conocimiento en Organizaciones Internacionales

Si bien la gestión de conocimiento en las organizaciones juega un papel importantísimo en la creación de valor, ya que sus individuos y equipos impactan directamente el desempeño de la organización cuando comparten conocimiento, en un entorno internacional toma aún más importancia.


En el caso de organizaciones multinacionales la gestión del conocimiento ofrece múltiples ventajas que contribuyen a la eficiencia, innovación, y competitividad global de la compañía. Sin entrar a discutir el grado de “centralización” necesario, si que es importante el empleo de plataformas comunes de gestión.


Sin pretender presentar una lista exhaustiva, se presentan a continuación una serie de ventajas asociadas a la gestión de conocimiento desde un punto de vista global:

UNA SOLA ORGANIZACIÓN.

Si bien en el caso de clientes locales, no parece evidente el beneficio asociado, en el caso de clientes con presencia en varios países o regiones, los beneficios son evidentes:

  1. Homogeneidad de Procesos: todos los empleados siguen las mismas políticas y procedimientos, lo que garantiza la uniformidad y calidad del producto/servicio.
  2. Normalización y Mejores Prácticas: fácil implantación de estándares comunes y prácticas a nivel global.
  3. “Toque Local”: el empleo de una plataforma de gestión adecuada, da cabida a la “localización” del conocimiento, integrándose perfectamente en la monitorización y “reporting”.

MEJORA DE LA INNOVACION: QUIEN MÁS SABE, MÁS COMPARTE.

En principio, el conocimiento se puede crear de forma centralizada, pero la mejora del mismo se producirá también de forma descentralizada, en función de la experiencia.

  1. Optimización de Recursos: facilita la identificación y movilización de expertos y talentos a nivel global para abordar problemas específicos o proyectos estratégicos.
  2. Compartir: facilita el intercambio de ideas, innovaciones y mejores prácticas entre diferentes partes de la organización, fomentando una cultura de aprendizaje continuo.
  3. Colaboraciónn Global: potencia la colaboración entre equipos de distintos países, lo que puede llevar a soluciones más creativas e innovadoras.
  4. Economías de escala: reduce costes operativos mediante la consolidación de funciones y recursos, eliminando redundancias y aprovechando la tecnología.

ADAPTABILIDAD Y RAPIDEZ DE RESPUESTA.

Si a nivel local el rendimiento de las herramientas digitales es fundamental para su aceptabilidad por parte de los equipos de una organización, parece obvio que su impacto en un entorno internacional es mayor. Un sistema global de gestión de conocimiento debe de poseer las siguientes características:

  1. Flexibilidad: Facilita la adaptación a cambios en el entorno empresarial global de manera más ágil y coherente.
  2. Rapidez de Difusión: Permite una comunicación instantánea de cambios en políticas, procedimientos, o cualquier otra información relevante.
  3. Gestión de Crisis: Permite una respuesta coordinada y eficiente ante situaciones de crisis, al tener protocolos y planes de acción incorporados en el sistema de gestión de conocimiento.

DESARROLLO ORGANIZATIVO.

El desarrollo de las personas y los equipos resulta vital para garantizar la supervivencia a largo plazo de las compañías, ya que les permitirá adaptarse a los cambios a los que se enfrentaran con el tiempo.

  1. Formación y Desarrollo: facilita la implementación de programas de formación y desarrollo profesional, gestionados de forma colectiva o individual, lo que refuerza el desarrollo profesional.
  2. Retención del Talento: ayuda a retener el conocimiento dentro de la organización, incluso cuando hay rotación de personal, al tener plataforma de información y experiencia.

CONTROL Y SEGURIDAD

Al igual que el rendimiento, el control y la seguridad de las herramientas digitales requieren una vigilancia total en un entorno global:

  1. Gestión de Calidad: Permite una supervisión más estricta y centralizada de los procesos de calidad, minimizando riesgos y mejorando la conformidad regulatoria.
  2. Protección de Datos: Asegura una gestión más segura y controlada de la información sensible, cumpliendo con las normativas internacionales sobre protección de datos.
  3. Análisis Centralizado: Mejora la capacidad de análisis y monitoreo de la organización a través de datos consolidados, permitiendo una mejor identificación de tendencias y oportunidades.

Por este motivo, en SHA centramos el desarrollo de nuestras soluciones en todos aquellos aspectos que ayudan a las organización al maximizar los beneficios de la gestión de conocimiento, independientemente de la función, unidad de negocio o geografía, buscando siempre maximizar el valor de la organización.

Gestion de la connaissance dans les organisations internationales 

Il est à présent reconnu que la mise en place d’une Gestion de la Connaissance en Entreprise joue un rôle critique dans la création de valeur, chaque équipe et chaque individu ayant un impact direct sur la performance de l’organisation. Ces effets bénéfiques prennent une autre dimension si l’on se place dans un contexte international, ce qui est de plus en plus le cas pour les entreprises.


Pour les organisations multinationales, la Gestion de Connaissance offre de multiples bénéfices qui contribuent à l’efficacité, à l’innovation et à la compétitivité globale de l’entreprise. Sans même évoquer le débat sur comment positionner le curseur de la centralisation, l’utilisation d’une plateforme commune pour la Gestion de Connaissance est primordiale.


Sans rentrer dans l’exhaustivité des bénéfices apportés, nous allons nous focaliser sur les avantages qu’apporte une Gestion Globale de la Connaissance d’Entreprise :

1) UNE ORGANISATION.

Bien que rarement perçus par les structures strictement locales, les bénéfices associes à une Gestion Globale de la Connaissance peut se décliner de la façon suivante :

  • Homogénéité des processus : tous les employés suivent les mêmes politiques et procédures, ce qui garantit l’uniformité et la qualité du produit/service.
  • Normalisation et meilleures pratiques : mise en œuvre facile de normes et de pratiques communes au niveau mondial.
  • « Local Touch » : l’utilisation d’une plateforme de gestion appropriée permet la « localisation » des connaissances, s’intégrant parfaitement dans le suivi et le « reporting ».

2) AMÉLIORATION DE L’INNOVATION : QUI SAIT PLUS et MIEUX, PARTAGE PLUS et MIEUX

En principe, les connaissances peuvent être créées de manière centralisée, mais leur amélioration se fera également de manière décentralisée, en fonction de l’expérience.

  • Optimisation des ressources : facilite l’identification et la mobilisation d’experts et de talents au niveau mondial pour résoudre des problèmes spécifiques ou des projets stratégiques.
  • Partage : Facilite l’échange d’idées, d’innovations et de meilleures pratiques entre les différentes parties de l’organisation, favorisant une culture d’apprentissage continu.
  • Collaboration mondiale : améliore la collaboration entre les équipes de différents pays, ce qui peut conduire à des solutions plus créatives et innovantes.
  • Économies d’échelle : réduire les coûts d’exploitation en consolidant les fonctions et les ressources, en éliminant les redondances et en tirant parti de la technologie.

3) ADAPTABILITÉ ET RAPIDITÉ DE RÉPONSE.

Si en local, la performance des outils numériques est critique pour leur acceptabilité par les équipes d’une entreprise, il apparait évident que ce facteur performance se retrouve encore plus sensible en environnement international. Un système de Gestion de Connaissance Global se doit de fournir :


  • Facilite l’adaptation aux changements de l’environnement commercial mondial d’une manière plus agile et cohérente.
  • Vitesse de diffusion : Permet la communication instantanée des changements apportés aux politiques, aux procédures ou à toute autre information pertinente.
  • Gestion de crise : Permet une réponse coordonnée et efficace aux situations de crise, en intégrant des protocoles et des plans d’action dans le système de gestion des connaissances.

4) DÉVELOPPEMENT ORGANISATIONNEL.

Le développement et la rétention active des personnes et des équipes est vital pour garantir la survie à long terme des entreprises, car ils leur permettront de s’adapter aux changements auxquels elles seront confrontées au fil du temps.


  • Formation et perfectionnement : facilite la mise en œuvre de programmes de formation et de perfectionnement professionnel, gérés collectivement ou individuellement, qui renforcent le perfectionnement professionnel.
  • Rétention des talents : aide à retenir les connaissances au sein de l’organisation, même en cas de roulement de personnel, en disposant d’une plateforme d’information et d’expérience.
  • Respect des différences culturelles et des spécificités locales sur  les modes et règles d’apprentissage. Cela est possible avec une plateforme de Gestion de la Connaissance d’Entreprise Globale.

5) CONTRÔLE ET SÉCURITÉ

Au même titre que la performance, les aspects contrôle et sécurité d’outils numériques réclament une vigilance totale en environnement global :

  • Gestion de la qualité : permet une supervision plus stricte et centralisée des processus de qualité, minimisant les risques et maximisant la conformité réglementaire.
  • Protection des données : Assure une gestion plus sûre et contrôlée des informations sensibles, conformément aux réglementations internationales en matière de protection des données.
  • Analyse centralisée : Améliore la capacité d’analyse et de surveillance de l’organisation grâce à des données consolidées, permettant une meilleure identification des tendances et des opportunités.

SHA Knowledge Management boosts your CS superpowers by adding Coaching features

Level up your coaching sessions and unlock the superpowers of SHA’s integrated coaching features.

For those who, like us, believe that coaching is the secret sauce to fix Customer Service operations, SHA swoops in to save the day!


Say goodbye to:

    • Quality issues like an increase in repeated calls rate.
    • Customer experience issues like incorrect or incomplete solutions.
    • Productivity issues like call duration drifts.

    With SHA, you’ll become the superhero of knowledge management, creating improvement plans for KB users and saving the world from content chaos.


    Training and coaching are your trusty sidekicks, helping you close the loop and conquer any challenge. Let’s dive into a (not so) imaginary business case and unleash your coaching superpowers!

    Meet Peter Tek, the rookie contact center agent fresh out of onboarding training.

    Armed with a technical background, Peter has been assigned to the prestigious technical team.

    However, trouble lurks in the shadows as his quality coach has detected some chinks in his armor while listening to a few calls.

    The coach has also taken a peek at Peter’s SHA Knowledge Base usage and confirmed that Peter needs to pay more attention to administrative policies instead of relying solely on his technical prowess.

    Brace yourselves for the shocking revelations from Peter’s SHA KB usage reporting:

    • Stellar follow-up on tech training.
    • Lackluster usage of the KB for policy content.
    • And a disappointing performance in policy update training.

    But wait, there’s more!

    During the coach’s undercover mission of call monitoring, they stumbled upon a few calls that seemed to last longer than a Marvel movie.

    Why, you ask? Peter’s hesitation with administrative details left callers hanging, resulting in a second call for help.

    Fear not, for the coach has prepared a top-secret coaching session form integrated in SHA. This form will be shared with Peter, outlining the good, the bad, and the ugly, and setting the stage for improvement.

     And here’s the cherry on top: the coach can sprinkle some magic training articles into Peter’s curriculum using the “push” feature.


    Witness the wonders of SHA’s short training modules in a previous publication and get ready to save the day!

    SHA integrates nugget training in its Knowledge Management Platform!

    Image by pch.vector on Freepik

    Ever heard of Nugget or Snack Training? Is it any good? Here are some delicious insights from our CHEFs, the SHA experts!

    The tasty news is that, as expected, Snack Training is as easy to understand as devouring a bag of chips and as quick to complete as a microwave dinner.

    “Nugget training” or “Snack Training” refers to an approach that breaks down complex concepts or skills into smaller, more manageable “nuggets” of information. These nuggets are typically as easy to understand and remember as your favorite comfort food, making the learning process more effective. It’s a method of delivering information in bite-sized, easily digestible pieces.


    You can not only satisfy your hunger with snacks, but the same goes for training. There is an obvious need to balance the formal, fundamental classroom training with shorter, complementary sessions that can easily fit into a busy schedule. So, grab your training nuggets and let’s feast on knowledge!”

    Combining Knowledge Management with flexible and agile Training feature is especially adapted to Customer Facing Operations where information is volatile and frequently updated and where keeping all employees at similar level of skills is very challenging, new hires cannot compete with veterans!


    With SHA Training Module, you’ll be able to:

    • Edit and share very quickly snack training content.
    • Select the group of people that are required to go through those learning short modules.
    • Schedule a beginning and an end to have this performed..
    • Provide the selected trainees with alerts that they must learn those content within the time frame.
    • Create, when necessary, a quiz (thanks to the quiz editor) which enables you within minute to create a questionnaire to ensure that everyone has digested the nugget!
    • Collect their feedback so you can measure the quality of the content (like for any other content shared on SHA)

    The benefits are clear:

    • Ensure that all targeted trainees have been trained at their own pace..
    • No organization issue to train large group of staff working on shift.
    • No training room and trainer availability headaches.
    • Full control and monitoring of how the message went through.
    • Individual monitoring in case of difficulties digesting the content.
    • Individual monitoring in case of difficulties digesting the content. (like for any other content shared on SHA)

    Your training staff is the Chef, don’t bother a Chef cooking basic stuff and leave SHA handles the nugget training!

    Video Killed the Radio Stars but Have Chatbot Killed Knowledge Management Systems?

    As most of tools existing for quite a while, Knowledge Management Systems (KMS) were recently challenged by tools that looked more dynamic and more adapted to current tech trends: CHATBOT for example were expected to take over the support of clients having all kind of questions & queries.

    Image by kjpargeter on Freepik

    After a few years of hype, where do we stand?


    Facts:

    Let’s look at the bright side first:

    • Yes, CHABOT are up and running 7 days a week
    • Yes, CHABOT can address some easy to ask and easy to analyse queries. It is important to note that those queries have to be easy ones – means the customer have to ask those queries in a very simple manner, so the bot replying, will not get lost with too many words …

    BUT


    Facts again:

    Studies shown that users don’t like to get support from bots (and very probably it is because they could not get proper answers from them…) Recent studies (ie study from Statista.com) found that the huge majority of customers (rough average 80%) prefer human interaction to AI driven interfaces as chatbot.

    More studies forecast that bot assistants lacking integration with Knowledge Systems will NOT bring the expected CS and savings.

    Very few businesses require 24/7 replies on queries, and when there is a critical need (health, security, financial transactions for instance) most of the time it is low volume and high quality required so human interfaces have to be there.

    So KMS seems to be considered as the fundamental foundation which should not be neglected for both human and virtual Customer Support.

    Designed by rawpixel.com / Freepik

    Knowledge Management: a fundamental element that is here to stay?

    No surprise that some other studies shows that KM has a bright future to help and support human beings (but not only) to reply accurately and consistently to queries from other precious human beings: customers and prospects.

    Gartner found that 74% of Customer Support Professionals mentioned improving knowledge and content to their customers and employees as a priority.

    There is a spot for bots and probably in the forthcoming years, technology will evolve so the current rejection could reduce. But we also need to consider that robots need to be fed, and when they’ll be working better, they’ll need to use some fundamental pieces of knowledge, and they’ll find in your KMS.

    The days IA/Bots/ML will create their own knowledge (and mimic the current knowledge life cycle and workflow: identification of need, authoring, validating, monitoring, improving, and managing obsolescence…) are not there yet. And when it will happen, we’ll still have to ensure that 2 different lines of code would not generate 2 different solutions to similar queries just because some synonyms were used…


    Some advices from the Customer Support Experts at SHA:


    • Start today with a KMS solution that will enable you to create, maintain and monitor your enterprise knowledge for your contact center staff as well as for your digital virtual agents, today and tomorrow!
    • Video might have killed the video stars some years ago (same as streaming has killed some others) but LPs are still there and Chatbot did not killed KMS, just made their existence more critical and more visible…
    • If you need to set up a KMS from scratch or move your existing KMS to a much more agile and cost-efficient system, have a look at what SHA can provide you!

    In less than 3 minutes evaluate your need for a (new) Knowledge Management System

    Knowledge Management System Return on Investment (aka KMS ROI) … trust me, with such a headline it can be difficult to attract someone’s interest, we all keen on reading easy stuff and learn new things and much less likely to read complex calculations that are not fitting our business specifics (and we ALL have our own specific business, don’t we?)

    So instead of writing a nice and long article on the hidden benefits of KMS or a very comprehensive suite of questions to estimate what could be the ROI (basically, when would your KMS bring tangible, monetized value to your business) we decided to play an easy game: just allocate points to each of the 10 features below

    0 point if you believe this item is irrelevant to your business

    1 point if you believe this item is of low importance to your business

    2 points if you trust this item is important to your business

    3 points if you strongly believe this item is totally critical to your business

    And to have a proper evaluation: provide DELTA in the second column to evaluate how far you think you are from where you’d like to be. (using the same logic with points: 0 is low, 3 is high)

    “your business” is not restricted to your bottom line, your sales number, but you’d agree that the your business’ ultimate value is made of a lot of others items such as: brand image, product innovation, customer experience, talent retention, financial health…

    Irrespective of how you performed this test, just contact us at SHA, we have extensive business experience on how KMS can support your business and operations and get a fairly good estimate on how quickly you can achieve a proper ROI using KMS (it can be a few weeks!)
