Knowledge Management Matters

Knowledge Management Matters: Words of Wisdom from Leading Practitioners is a collection of works penned by an amazing and diverse group of thought leaders.  Each of these trailblazers has generously shared their knowledge with a view to helping you and your organization succeed in the knowledge environment.  The tips, tactics, and techniques they suggest are time-tested and proven concepts that will help you achieve your organizational objectives.  Their collective works are based on decades of experience with real-world organizations.  This is not a book of untested theories that might work, but rather a compilation of genuine words of wisdom from experienced KM practitioners who know knowledge management.

Knowledge Management Matters starts with a brief overview of the evolution of knowledge management.  Building on this historical foundation, we launch a wide-ranging exploration of the domain.  Throughout the book are excellent examples of what works, what doesn’t, and some thought-provoking teases about the future.  The authors offer great advice on a variety of subjects including storytelling, big data, creativity & innovation, leading communities, knowledge assets, co-creation, catering to a transient workforce and so much more.
