Book  Serious Play (2000  ) by Michael SchrageHow the World's Best Companies Simulate To Innovate Shared Minds by Michael SchrageLink  Prototype Culture by Michael Schrage Article in Marketing Computers magazine Person  Michael SchrageQuotation  On knowledge and power by Michael Schrage On knowledge management and bullshit by Michael Schrage On serious play by Michael Schrage Quotations from Michael Schrage:  The ability to act on knowledge is power. Most people in most organizations do not have the ability to act on the knowledge they possess.Michael Schrage I think "knowledge management" is a bullshit issue. Let me tell you why. I can give you perfect information, I can give you perfect knowledge and it won't change your behavior one iota. People choose not to change their behavior because the culture and the imperatives of the organization make it too difficult to act upon the knowledge. Knowledge is not the power. Power is power. The ability to act on knowledge is power. Most people in most organizations do not have the ability to act on the knowledge they possess. End of story. Michael Schrage You can't be a serious innovator unless and until you are ready, willing, and able to seriously play. 'Serious Play' is not an oxymoron; it is the essence of innovation.
