To celebrate the final of the Lions' Series* today, here's Brian O'Driscoll's** take on the value of Knowledge."I played on instinct in 2001. My rugby awareness is a lot better nowadays. My understanding of players and why we do what we do, why you run these lines, why you tackle a certain way. There's a lot of things you pick up by playing. I've played a lot of rugby and if you pick up one thing each time you play, there is a wealth of knowledge there."
Maybe that's a good way to approach Knowledge Management in organisations as well - "Pick up at least one thing each time you play"
*a northern hemisphere Rugby Union tour of Australia
** a famous and highly skilled Rugby player, captain of the Ireland team, unaccountably dropped for the final.
Absolutely agree, learn by doing, wise words from Brian, thats what make good players (team members) great! "Pick up one thing each time you play..." - Reflection, asking yourself:- How can I improve the way I'm doing what I'm doing...
