Simon Dueckert shared his “best practices” on “one day in the life of a knowledge worker” as part of the latest BITKOM KM meeting (unfortunately only in German but I hope that he is going to translate his presentation…). I particularly appreciate his KM objective: “creating knowledge, sharing, and perpetuating it to achieve the preconditions for a sustainable living on Earth” and the way he connects this objective with his knowledge strategy (slides #14 and #15). Simon also explained the way he organizes all the information stuff crossing his desk, desktop, mobile, mind each and every day.

From his presentation I’m curious to test the following tools for my own personal knowledge management:

Zotero (citation and research tool)

yEd (social network analysis tool)

mixxt (social networking platform creator)
