Developing an Information Management Strategy

“Matt facilitated a workshop with our entire Executive team and it was extremely successful. We felt it was important to have buy in from the very top and Matt achieved this through his vast experience and masterful story-telling, which highlighted how information is the basis for everything we do. As a direct result of Matt’s workshop we now have executive level information champions and have started on our transformation journey. I would highly recommend Matt’s workshop to anyone, and particularly to executive and leadership level to gain organisational buy-in.”

i³ Stories

Below are some great stories of how i³ thinking is empowering people and organisations like never before, transforming how we live, work and play.

These stories are provided to stimulate your own thinking in applying the i³ paradigm in your organisation or business and also demonstrate the centrality of information in all facets of our lives.

They also provide a preview of some key i³ constructs such as dark spots, invisible information and information forms.

The traditional construct we have about information changes dramatically in the i³ paradigm, which considers information to take almost a limitless number of forms (many of which are still to be discovered). The power of this thinking is that we can use information for virtually any purpose and it becomes an ‘agent of action’.
