Allison Blanning, a Senior Knowledge Management Analyst at Enterprise Knowledge, is presenting at “Transformation of Librarianship,” a virtual conference organized by the Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, and St. Louis Chapters of the Special Libraries Association (SLA) on Friday, June 10th.

Her presentation is titled “Crafting an Effective KM (Knowledge Management) Elevator Pitch,” and breaks down the key steps to creating a successful elevator pitch that will help KM practitioners and librarians alike to champion and gain momentum for KM initiatives within their own organizations. Participants will learn how to garner buy-in and excitement for KM initiatives from organizational leaders and stakeholders by articulating a shared understanding of KM, the organizational challenges it can address, and the business value it can provide.
