Services

Founded in January 2007, Knowledge Mobilization Works is a consulting and training company based in Ottawa, Canada.  We are dedicated to helping individuals and organization move what is collectively known into what we do. Our goal is simple: help make better decisions to produce better outcomes.

We define knowledge mobilization as the complex process of making knowledge ready for service or action to create new value and benefits. The concept of “readiness” is recognition that while data and information can be analyzed by machines and presented in various ways, for this analysis to become knowledge, the content requires a social life with feedback loops that support the adaptation to variations in contexts, capacities of individuals and organizations, and cultures (both social and institutional).

We offer a range of services that are combined in ways that best support each of our clients. Our CFIT model brings together consulting, facilitation, imagination, and training into comprehensive and customized packages that meets the needs of each client to improve their specific condition.  From our perspective, the client is always at the centre of what we do.
