In the know: Mary Parker Follett Foundation | Are crowds the cure for misinformation?
In the know is a regular roundup of knowledge management (KM) topics of discussion and the articles, events, videos, and podcasts that are grabbing the attention of KM experts across our community.
Mary Parker Follett Foundation
A previous RealKM Magazine article introduced “Mother of Modern Management” Mary Parker Follett, an important pioneer who is relatively little known in comparison to “Father of Modern Management” Peter Drucker. A previous “In the know” then revealed that Peter Drucker had actually written the introduction to a notable book about Mary Parker Follett, with his words revealing that Drucker himself had been unaware of Mary Parker Follett and her important contribution.
To help support and promote the literary and intellectual legacy of Mary Parker Follett, the Mary Parker Follett Foundation has now been established.
