  • Recruit high level executive or partner champions to share success stories.
  • Select a platform that is easy to use without too many bells and whistles.
  • Do not force participation.
  • Remove barriers and impediments by keeping the wiki open for editing and transparent.
  • Create a process for updating that transfers responsibility to each practice group or department.
