Mr. Swanstrom is the founder and president of eKnowledgeCenter. He developed the Extreme Innovation(SM) technique and the eKC Knowledge Management Method taught by eKnowledgeCenter. Based on a factory model, and backed by an economic model, the eKC Knowledge Management Method is an active system for capturing tacit knowledge in a company, preventing loss of knowledge, and improving knowledge acquisition at all levels of business. Webinar Focus: Enterprise Knowledge Portals (EKPs) are increasingly popular in organizations because they provide access to explicit knowledge in the organization and collaboration and other tools for the identification and sharing of tacit knowledge. But do they really manage knowledge and innovation? Webinar participants will take a look at the application of the GKEC Knowledge Economics Model in the portal environment, using innovation indicators embedded into the enterprise knowledge processes to drive the Innovation Cockpit. The Innovation Cockpit offers a unique meta-view of innovation across the enterprise that can be directly tied to economic results.

Without effective management, it can quickly become the most complex and expensive application in the enterprise.
