Playbooks in Practice: Capturing Knowledge to Drive Excellence

The professional services firm’s knowledge management team was tasked with creating playbooks to capture both tacit and explicit knowledge, highlighting the services they provide. These playbooks aimed to transform insights from across the organization into accessible documents that promote continuous improvement and operational excellence.

APQC collaborated with the organization’s KM team to create a plan for building playbooks, identifying best practices, tools, and templates, and ensuring alignment with the services offered, such as communities of practice.

• Knowledge Management Strategy
• KM Implementation

APQC’s support streamlined knowledge capture and standardization, enhancing service delivery and operational consistency, while accelerating the development and implementation of playbooks.

• The KM team needed critical insight to clearly define its products and services, laying the groundwork for effective playbooks that align with organizational objectives and can be consistently replicated across service domains.
• Developing a comprehensive change and communications strategy to promote KM services and playbooks fosters organizational adoption, engagement, and a culture of continuous improvement and knowledge sharing.
