business relocation

Relocating a newly acquired function of 43 people from Coventry to Leicester, in the UK without losing unique and vital knowledge was the challenge presented to Steve in 2003. This was made doubly challenging by the fact that 20 people with key knowledge were unwilling to move.

A staged knowledge capture, classification, and transfer process was proposed to ease the move. In addition to assisting the move the Knowledge Assets developed are now instrumental in focussing and enabling the business to hit aggressive future growth targets.
