The Psychology of Records Management: Rules of the Road for Cultural Change by Craig Grimestad

I trust many of you have found The Psychology of Records Management: Rules of the Road for Cultural Change segments and series to be enlightening and useful to you in your efforts to implement change going forward. I suspect some number of you would like to share this information with others in your chain of command or elsewhere in your organization, but find it a bit awkward to suggest that others read blogs. Well, good news! The Iron Mountain team has developed an impressive article on Advocating Change that uses the Rules of the Road introduction along with the first five Rules as it foundation. You'll find it at: http://www.ironmountain.com/Knowledge-Center/Reference-Library/View-by-Document-Type/General-Articles/A/Advocating-Change-5-Steps-to-a-Smooth-RIM-Transition.aspx At that location the entire article is viewable, and near the top you'll find a button that says Download PDF . Click on that and you'll find the full dress version of the article that you'll be pleased to share with others - not to mention being a great reference for yourself. If you like what you see there, maybe pass along a comment or a word that you appreciate the Iron Mountain team developing this article, and would similarly like for them to develop Part 2 - picking up the rest of Rules and Guidelines. Half a loaf is better than none - but let's go after the full loaf.

I digress, but some of you know that I am actually a mechanical engineer by training, and that is a totally different world. In that world there are patents and trade secrets - to try to protect information for the exclusive use of the discoverer. In this industry individuals share information and encourage each other to successfully persevere toward RIM governance objectives. So if you have found these materials helpful, share them with you colleagues, with your network, even your AIIM and ARMA chapters. Then in turn, when they find something of value they will be all the more certain to share it with you.
