The Living Knowledge Podcast

The Living Knowledge Podcast

Some knowledge can't be written down. It lives in an artisan's hands and judgment, and disappears when they stop. The Living Knowledge Podcast explores it through the books of Jean-Claude F. Monney, former Chief Knowledge Officer at Microsoft. The first series draws on One Square Kilometer, his conversations with Swiss master winemaker Jean-Michel Walther. Each episode develops two stories from one chapter: one for knowledge management practitioners, one for wine, sommelier and hospitality students. Discussed by AI co-hosts, introduced by the author.

Monney: one for wine, sommelier and hospitality students, one for knowledge management practitioners. Discussed by AI co-hosts and introduced by the author. Find the book at dtan.ch
