Classic KM Definitions(with their focus on internal information)
• Ruggles, 1998Knowledge management is a newly emerging interdisciplinary
business model dealing with all aspects of knowledge within the context of the firm, including knowledge creation, codification, sharing, learning, and innovation. Some aspects of this process are facilitated with information technologies, but knowledge management is to a greater degree, about organizational culture and practices.
• Gartner Group, 1998A discipline that promotes an integrated approach to
identifying, capturing, evaluating, retrieving, and sharing all of an enterprise’s information assets. These assets may include databases, documents, policies, procedures, and previously uncaptured expertise and experience in individual workers.
(underlining added)

Another Definition of KM
• Researchers are the quintessential knowledge workers.
• Increasingly business is composed of knowledge workers.
• KM is the movement to create in the business environment at large, the environment known to be conducive to successful research.

RICH DEEP OPEN COMMUNICATIONS
• In a study (Koenig, 1992) of the research winners and losers among two dozen major pharmaceutical companies, the single best correlation with research success was that researchers in the most successful companies perceived their own organization as placing less emphasis on confidentiality and the protection of proprietary information than did other companies in the industry.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF KM
Three, perhaps four Stages
![Page 6: KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT - Unitar, 14 june 2006unpan1.un.org/intradoc/groups/public/documents/un/unpan023431.pdf · Knowledge management is a newly emerging interdisciplinary ... knew](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022022014/5b3f206c7f8b9aff118bbbd7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

The Stages of KM to date
STAGE I “ by the Internet out of Intellectual Capital”
Information TechnologyIntellectual CapitalThe Internet (including intranets, extranets, etc.)Key Phrases: “best practices”, later replaced by the more politic “lessons learned”

STAGE II Human and cultural dimensions,
the HR, Human Relations ,stage
Communities of PracticeOrganizational CultureThe Learning Organization (Senge), andTacit Knowledge (Nonaka) incorporated into KMKey Phrase: “communities of practice”

The Stages of KM to date
• Stage III Content and Retrievability
Structuring content and assigning descriptors (index terms)
Library Science 101Key Phrases: content management, meta data, and taxonomies

STAGE 4 ? KM AND CONTEXT
• One clear aspect of this emphasis upon context is the recognition that KM extends to knowledge beyond and outside the organization. KM traditionally almost entirely emphasized just an organization’s internal knowledge. The classic one line illustration of what is addressed by KM has been the mantra of “if only Texas Instruments knew what Texas Instruments knew”.
• Another dimension of this emphasis is the realization of the necessity to understand the context of the user and the potential user.
• Yet another dimension is the understanding that for the user to have confidence in the information or knowledge provided, the user must also be made aware of the context of the source of the information.

WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF A KM SYSTEM ?
• PORTALS, COMBINING:
• ACCESS TO EXTERNAL INFORMATION, AND
• ELECTRONIC CONTENT MANAGEMENT
• COMMUNITIES OF PRACTICE• BEST PRACTICES / LESSONS LEARNED
• YELLOW PAGES (DIRECTORIES OF WHO KNOWS WHAT)
• EDUCATION AND TRAINING• REWARD AND COMPENSATION SYSTEM

IS KM ANOTHER BUSINESS FAD ?
• I DON’T THINK SO.
• Why Not ?

ANOTHER WAY OF THINKING ABOUT KM
THE METAPHOR OF THE FOREST AND THE TREES
AS IN “He can’t see the forest for the trees.”KM as the name for the forest of all the information and information management
trees (fads) of the last quarter century.

KPMG STUDY - Why KM benefits did not materialize
• The Question was: “Why do you think the benefits failed to materialize?”
1. Lack of user uptake due to insufficient communication
2. Everyday use did not integrate into normal working practice
3. Lack of time to learn/system too complicated
4. Lack of training
5. User could not see personal benefits
6. Senior management was not behind it
7. Unsuccessful due to technical problems
