Putting the power of knowledge in the hands of your people

Employees detest endlessly searching for a resolution to their knowledge need. When poorly managed, this is a tedious and often repetitive task that costs too many priceless minutes of your people’s time. It also has a habit of raising many people’s blood pressure in the process.

Intentional, organized knowledge management with interconnected, trusted systems can improve productivity, inform efficient decision-making, and banish frustration for good.

At Unily, we know centralized, accessible expertise is the only antidote to knowledge management mayhem. Time to bring all that important material together. We’ve put together a winning line-up of five Unily features to champion knowledge across your workplace. If you’re looking to give your organizational wisdom the edge, this is a great place to start.

#1. Intelligent, Unified Search 

Arguably the backbone of any employee experience platform, employees expect an exceptional search experience as standard. It should deliver swift, precise, and reliable results. Without this pivotal component, productivity will slip as your people lose faith in depending on your search bar for answers.

Dissolving digital friction is another search superpower that can optimize knowledge management. If your employees must toggle between various sources of knowledge instead of a single, centralized location, they will become overwhelmed and frustrated with the unnecessary effort. As Gartner states, “More than two-thirds of employees experience significant digital friction at work.”

#2. People Directory

Knowledge is more transferrable than we tend to think, and lessons can often be applied between areas of practice that couldn’t seem further apart at first glance. Connecting your people with internal experts can disperse knowledge across your organization to where it’s needed most.

Empowering your people to understand ‘who’s who’ across the organization may even help your people forge unlikely but assiduous connections. Why shouldn’t the finance team learn a new approach to project management from the product engineering team? Wouldn’t it be a shame if the procurement team couldn’t spread a success story that might be useful for the marketing team to apply within their own remit?
