This Site

Associated Knowledge is written by David Sabol. This site provides insight and conversation that takes place at the intersection of learning, knowledge, technology, and community. Associated Knowledge came about as I realized that one of the things I have enjoyed the most about any job of my jobs has been helping people learn and grow. Therefore, this site is my attempt to help people “connect the dots” and understand how technology, knowledge and community interact and interrelate and hopefully meet some great people and learn as I go.

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.

There are many other aspects of this site that I hope to develop in the near future — using technology to enable authentic interactions, innovation, learning and community building in both professional associations and organizations in general. Please feel free to contact me or leave a comment on the site if there’s an idea or suggestion you have on how I can improve it. Thanks for reading.

The only irreplaceable capital an organization possesses is the knowledge and ability of its people. The productivity of that capital depends on how effectively people share their competence with those who can use it.
