Please join me and Dan Holme, as we have a Swedish fika and ponder on some of the hottest topics right now in the wonderous world of Knowledge Management: Grounding tacit knowledge in the explicit, why and how AI is completely changing the knowledge landscape, and why keeping humans in the (knowledge) loop is key to success.

And of course, we may be getting a few hints abouts what's hot and coming soon, in Viva Engage, as well!

This episode was recorded live at the Irving Convention Center in Dallas TX, during the North American Cloud & Collaboration summit, on April 10, 2024.

On Monday we'll release the first episode of our new podcast: Knowledge Fika!

Here's a bite-sized taste of what me and Dan Holme chatted about, when we shared a "dammusgare" and talked about AI, Knowledge Management & Viva Engage, in Dallas (TX) a few weeks ago.

The first Episode will be available on Monday, May 6, at 1:00 pm (CET) - on Spotify!

Before we launch Episode 1 of our new podcast, Knowledge Fika, we'd like to introduce ourselves and tell you a little more about our new show!

In this second prequal, co-host Rebecka Isaksson will tell us a little bit more about herself, why she is passionate about KM and what Swedish Fika means to a Swede having lived for many years in the U.S.
