1808 - Summary/Objective
1809 -
180901 - Follow up ref SDS 20 0000. ref SDS 19 0000.
180902 -
180903 - This morning received a copy of a letter from Paul Prueitt's email
180904 - group talking about KM. The letter from Paul responded to a prior
180905 - letter from someone in his group. Paul did not address analysis in
180906 - the record yesterday, ref SDS 20 0001, nor the day before on 030426,
180907 - ref SDS 19 YN83, both answering Paul's correspondence presenting ideas
180908 - and questions Paul has developed on KM.
180910 - ..
180911 - This record of a one-sided analysis lacks reciprocal effort essential
180912 - for effective communciation, similar to experience on the OHS/DKR
180913 - work, cited in the draft letter for Pat Lincoln on 030417. ref OF 1
180914 - IB4M
180921 - ..
180922 - As a result, replied to Paul's letter with instructions to "remove" my
180923 - name from their list, since there is not enough time for doing the
180924 - work needed to make progress.

181301 - Received email from Paul saying....
181302 -
181303 - I am curious.
181305 - ..
181306 - Are you just to busy to communicate with this group?
181308 - ..
181309 - Submitted a response saying....
181310 -
181311 - 1. I am busy trying to keep the doors open, so to speak. We have
181312 - a slight chance of an order for my work and so have to
181313 - concentrate on that, plus figure out how to keep the wolves
181314 - away one way or the other.
181316 - ..
181317 - 2. I contributed for several years on a similar effort, and found
181318 - that my approach to things was not effective, as noted in the
181319 - draft letter for SRI, ref OF 1 IB4M, because people have to
181320 - learn KM through experience and getting experience is blocked
181321 - by understandable desire to use existing skills for IT,
181322 - creating an innovation loop, noted by Andy Grove in his book
181323 - reviewed on 980307. ref SDS 5 3740
181325 - ..
181326 - 3. My ideas for advancing beyond IT were submitted to you on
181327 - 030426, ref SDS 19 SC40, and you have examples of work product
181328 - demonstrating ability to perform, shown further by the record
181329 - submitted yesterday on 030427. ref SDS 20 0001 along with
181330 - references from folks who have experience showing this method
181331 - saves time and money, e.g., USACE report on 971007. ref DRP 2
181332 - 0001 I have pointed you to some research issues where your
181333 - mathematical skills would be helpful under the common rule to
181334 - "study what works." ref OF 1 UQ6V
181336 - ..
181337 - 4. As noted on 030427, it seems to me that some of your ideas are
181338 - headed in the right direction, ref SDS 20 WL6J, and I certainly
181339 - applaud your leadership championing a "Manhattan" project for
181340 - KM, ref SDS 20 KF9K, with an alert that experience shows that,
181341 - without the right design, progress will be slow.
181343 - ..
181344 - 5. If you want help doing KM, let me know.
181346 - ..
181347 - 6. In the meantime, think we have to let it go by wishing you good
181348 - luck.

181701 - Received a letter from Paul saying....
181702 -
181703 - I do not really understand what your innovation or methodology
181704 - is.
181706 - ..
181707 - Do you have an introduction to your way of thinking?

182101 - Submitted an email linked to this record, answering Paul's request for
182102 - information on SDS and Com Metrics. On 030426 Paul was asked why he
182103 - contacted us. ref SDS 19 YN83 This question is heightened by
182104 - disclosure in Paul's letter today that there is no understanding about
182105 - capabilities. ref SDS 0 TX4G
182107 - ..
182108 - POIMS explains SDS and Com Metrics, ref OF 2 0001, which is cited in
182109 - the record previously submitted to Paul on 030426. ref SDS 19 ZY8J
182111 - ..
182112 - The letter on 030417 to Dave Snowden at IBM, ref DIP 1 0001,
182113 - summarizes key points in POIMS. ref SDS 17 0001
182115 - ..
182116 - The draft letter being circulated at SRI and currently dated
182117 - 030417 shows a summary of theory, ref OF 1 K55F, and a blueprint
182118 - for research that enables people to transition from IT to a
182119 - culture of knowledge. ref OF 1 UQ6V
