Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Ulla de Stricker has experience in the information industry and in information related operations since 1977 and focuses in her consulting engagements on strategic planning for an organisation's information and knowledge management policies, practises and delivery mechanisms (including, where relevant, specialised information/knowledge centres). Frequently engagements involve modernising existing information operations or developing strategic plans for new information services and relationships tuned to the practises of today's intellectual workers. In consulting practise since late 1992, Ms. de Stricker has built a strong track record executing numerous information audits and needs assessment studies and recommending approaches for dealing with information services and knowledge management challenges. Prior to 1992, she held senior positions in the information industry in customer facing and product development roles. Ms. de Stricker is known for her simultaneously visionary and practical approach to her clients' challenges and development projects and for her special attention to the impact of corporate culture and extrinsic pressures on the actual day to day practises of knowledge workers. A particular area of professional concern is the considerable challenge of capture, protection and availability of intellectual capital. In many projects, she identifies for clients new opportunities for establishing practises and reward mechanisms to foster a knowledge friendly culture supporting innovation and leverage of learning. Ms. de Stricker is a popular speaker and workshop leader frequently appearing at information management related conferences and she contributes regularly to information industry journals. In 2009, she received the Association of Independent Information Professionals' Sue Rugge Memorial Award for her support to colleagues. Active in professional associations for decades, Ms. de Stricker served (2011-2013) on the Board of Directors of SLA, an international association of information professionals. She is the author of three career oriented books: The Information and Knowledge Professional's Career Handbook: Define and Create Your Success with Jill Hurst-Wahl (Chandos Publishing, 2011); Business Cases for Info Pros: Here's Why, Here's How (Information Today, 2008); Is Consulting for You? (American Library Association, 2007)
