We are now in the 'third wave' of Knowledge Management - the first
was focused on the potential of new technology, while the second
focused on the nature of knowledge and how people 'know' and learn.
The focus in the third phase is two-fold: building individual and
team productivity, and proper alignment of Knowledge Management
efforts in helping deliver on strategic goals of the organization.
Knowledge Management- a Blueprint for Delivery explores and builds
on current ideas about the dynamics of knowledge in organizations,
answering such questions as: 'What is knowledge management?' and
'What does it mean for today's companies and organizations?'
Written by two leading knowledge management practitioners, this
book looks beyond academic theory and software company hype to
focus on the roles that knowledge and information play in creating
high-performance organizations.
Built on their extensive experience of Knowledge Management
programme design and delivery, Knowledge Management- a Blueprint
for Delivery:
- contains a comprehensive survey of the whole area of Knowledge
Management, from theory and strategy creation through to
techniques, tools, and delivery of change
- provides an insight into developing and managing Knowledge
Management initiatives
- bridges the gap between theoretical, strategic, and practical
hands-on perspectives
