Knowledge Transfer Sessions
Structured meetings or workshops where experienced employees share their expertise with others in the department, ensuring critical knowledge is retained and disseminated.
Implications
Structured meetings or workshops where knowledge, skills, and expertise are formally shared between individuals or teams, often used during transitions, project handovers, or training programs to ensure that critical information is effectively communicated and retained.
Example
Example: A project manager holds a knowledge transfer session with a new team taking over a long-term project, providing detailed documentation, answering questions, and explaining key processes to ensure a smooth transition.
Related Terms
