Knowledge Sharing in Practice


Add your own review!

Overview

In this volume organizational learning theory is used to analyse various practices of managing and facilitating knowledge sharing within companies. Experiences with three types of knowledge sharing, namely knowledge acquisition, knowledge reuse and knowledge creation, at ten large companies are discussed and analysed. This critical analysis leads to the identification of traps and obstacles when managing knowledge sharing, when supporting knowledge sharing with IT tools and when organizations try to learn from knowledge sharing practices. The identification of these risks is followed by a discussion of how organizations can avoid them. This work should be of interest to researchers and practitioners working in organization science and business administration. Also, consultants and organizations at large should find the book useful as it provides insights into how other organizations manage and facilitate knowledge sharing and how potential failures can be prevented.
