Beyond Knowledge Management provides a balance of conceptual and practical aspects of knowledge management, offering the opportunity for students and practitioners to understand and effectively consider knowledge management approaches in their organizations. Everyday examples are used to lead the reader into the development of knowledge management, then further into a conceptual perspective, and finally to the practical application of knowledge management in organizations. Beyond Knowledge Management is presented in a style that appeals to students and business managers. In order for knowledge management to be more effectively used, it is essential that clear practical guidelines become available. This book is an important contribution to existing and future managers.
