Graham Robertson is the Principal Consultant of Bracken Associates,
which he formed in 1988 and specialises in the strategic implementation
of knowledge and information management initiatives, usually acting as a
catalyst and facilitator in problem resolution and the introduction of
new ideas and systems. In these roles, he draws on a wide range of
business and personal experience, and is well known for actively
promoting information auditing as a management process (and a creative
learning opportunity), based on sound financial auditing principles.
Over the past five years, he has been commissioned to run workshop
courses on knowledge mapping and information auditing through Aslib and
CILIP, and lectures on the latter subject to post-graduate students of
several universities within the UK.
After graduating from King’s College, London University, with a degree
in electrical engineering, Graham went on to qualify as a chartered
accountant. He then spent eleven years working with a major
international oil company in both finance and information technology
functions, before venturing out to explore the growing world of
information.
Since leaving the oil industry, he has also been responsible, with
others, for creating a number of small professional networks, dealing
with home based teleworking and employment support. He is a founder
member of the Aslib IRM Network (recently renamed as KIMNET, the
Knowledge and Information Management Network), through which many of his
current ideas on managing information as an organisational resource have
developed.
