Larry Suda describes planning, creation and successful implementation of the UN’s new TEAMWORKS knowledge management platform
28 April 2015 – Dallas and New York, USA – Lawrence (Larry) Suda, CEO and Officer at Palatine group/Management Worlds, Inc. in New York with over 30 years project and program management consulting and training experience in the United States and elsewhere, is the author of a fascinating paper added to the PM World Library this month. His paper titled “If You Build It, Will They Come? United Nations Knowledge Sharing Platform: A project-to-project – people-to-people – knowledge sharing platform”, was originally presented at the PMI Global Congress North America in 2014 and republished in the April edition of the PM World Journal.
According to Larry’s introduction, “Great challenges lay ahead for the world as a whole and especially for organizations with global brands. Large-scale organizations such as the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) have vast knowledge networks and dispersed experienced staff, consultants and advisors, who are in an exceptional position to take further advantage of current capabilities and capacity. Assisting clients and the supply chain in responding to current challenges, contributing to the achievement of the strategic goals and further fostering human capital is critical to the success of all global organizations… Given the degree of the complexities the UNDP faced in the past (as well as today), it was realized that the UNDP had to be better prepared to respond and adapt to changes more quickly… The vision was to produce a realistic, brighter ‘light at the end of the tunnel knowledge sharing system’ for developing country markets by putting forth the best the UNDP organization had to offer, more effectively and in a shorter time frame.”
