APQC CEO,Dr. Carla O'Dell, interviewed Alex Pentland, head of the Human Dynamics Laboratory at the MIT Media Lab and keynote speaker on May 1, 2015 at APQC’s KM Conference. He and his team have collected data, using RFID badges, on hundreds of thousands of interactions between people in companies and governments.

Sharing good ideas and best practices rapidly, as well as harvesting the best ideas from a diverse group of people, should lead to improvement if the conditions are right.
