KMLF September 2026 - TBA

The Evolution of Community and Knowledge Sharing Community and Knowledge Sharing have been a hallmark of KM since the beginning and have remained one of the most resilient tools in our KM toolkits. Why is this the case? A pandemic scattered our people. AI showed up promising instant answers to the questions communities were built to work through together. Through all of it, practitioners kept turning to each other. But every disruption also exposed a gap: who gets a seat, who gets heard, and where practitioners go for peers instead of vendors. This conversation traces those ideas and how they led a small group of KM idealists to start a community that is turning into a movement. Dr. Rachel Teague is VP of Knowledge Management and Organizational Learning at Emory Consulting Services, where she sits at the intersection of KM, change and people. She is a co-founder of EmpowerKM, a practitioner-led KM conference created to give working practitioners a place to learn from each other rather than from a vendor stage. Its Global Stage virtual conference has reached practitioners across 10 timezones and 7 countries. She also co-hosts Not Another KM Podcast with Brittany Persinger, where she and her co-host dig into what KM actually looks like in the real world.
