APQC's Strategic Overview Knowledge Map: Editable Template

A strategic overview knowledge map is broad in scope and used to gauge the level of knowledge or competency an organization has to meet its strategic business goals. This map looks at strategic focus areas and outlines the knowledge required for each focus area, how critical that knowledge is to achieving the organization’s goals in that focus area, whether the needed knowledge currently exists in the organization, and where any existing knowledge resides.

We recommend using this blank, editable template to complete a strategic overview knowledge map for your organization’s strategic focus areas.  The file also includes a second tab with sample data. Click here to review detailed instructions for using the tool.
