Introduction

Jaye A. H. Lapachet, M.L.I.S. is a knowledge manager and was, for many years, a consultant.

Prior to consulting I was a professional law librarian. I have worked in law firms and libraries since 1987, and was an information management consultant for 8 years. I have set up databases and workflow systems in numerous information centers and am an expert at identifying methods of streamlining workflow. These projects have included a variety of database projects, technology implementation, training programs and department reorganizations. I have written for a variety of publications and speak at conferences. My strengths are knowledge management, out of the box thinking and idea generation. I feel that the identification of information assets, followed by the organization and successful reuse of those information assets is critical to the ongoing success and daily efficiency of an organization as whole.

I have a solid understanding of information organization and management. I am passionate about metadata and reusing rather than recreating information.

Specialties: Knowledge management, systems analysis, workflow analysis, idea generation, out of the box thinking to generate solutions
