Summary |
Knowledge management is more than a buzzword - it's a way of thinking and acting. Stemming from a rich organizational history, the term knowledge organization has evolved to describe organizations that recognize the competitive advantage of intellectual capital, particularly that represented by their employees. Based on their landmark study of more than 200 of America's largest companies, Richard C. Huseman and Jon P. Goodman found that 78 percent of the corporations surveyed say they are moving toward becoming knowledge organizations. Leading With Knowledge provides examples of best practices and blueprints for developing a leading 21st century organization |
