Knowledge champions play an important advocacy and change management role for KM but they differ from knowledge managers in that, the champion role, is only part of their responsibility and of their formal work obligations and performance requirements. The champion role is intended to be a flexible role, being an ‘activist’ or facilitator, for example, to provide local support for KM initiatives and channel information from localised teams to and from central KM functions. Knowledge champions sometimes are called Knowledge stewards, co-coordinators or representatives as these terms may describe a more specific role that they play in that situation.
