Chris Collison is an internationally recognised consultant, author and speaker in the field of knowledge management and organisational learning.

He is sought-after because he combines his track record as a practitioner, experienced in the practical, real-world knowledge management with a strategic ability to inspire at board level.

Testimonials include:
…Chris’s involvement has made a real difference here, inspiring us to take our knowledge management activity to greater heights.
…a wonderfully energetic speaker whose knowledge and enthusiasm shines through…
…a superb combination of powerful anecdotal stories and real practical help in carrying forward the concepts of knowledge management.

Chris has worked with and advised leaders at the highest levels of more than twenty public and private-sector organizations, sharing the practical experiences he gained whilst working in BP's knowledge management team, and his deep understanding of the human dynamics of major change programmes.

Chris joined BP in 1989, occupying a series of positions in Research, IT and Organisational Development. In the late '90s he worked as part of BP's acclaimed knowledge management team which led him to co-author the book "Learning to Fly" which has now become a standard work in the field of knowledge management selling over 10,000 copies worldwide, available in five languages. A second edition, drawing in stories from ten new organisations was published in 2005.

In 2001 Chris joined international energy and essential services company Centrica plc, occupying a series of Director level positions before becoming “Director of Change & Knowledge management”. In this role he was responsible for developing organisational capability across this organisation of 35,000 employees, for developing Knowledge Management Strategy and for coaching the leadership team in the leadership of change and transformation.

After 15 years in corporate roles, Chris now operates as an independent management consultant, owner and director of Knowledgeable Ltd.
