Episode notes

The two most important things that I think would be the benefits of doing that effort would be, one, being able to understand the things that you have within that project that you're doing and two, finding things more quickly. It's kind of like an inventory and also hooks for people who are typing things into a search box. So if we were carpenters, so to speak, and looking at this design thinking would be a chisel and ontological thinking might be the hammer.

My guest today is Ren Pope. Ren is a Principal at Info-Do, which offers data, information, and knowledge architecture consulting. He’s worked in these domains for the last 25 years or so, and has also taught colleagues how to do these things through workshops and presentations. In this episode, we focus on why organizations need to know about and develop ontologies.
