Introduction
(Back to Table of Contents)

Knowledge Management has taken the business world by storm—and rightfully so. The concepts espoused in Knowledge Management are not only logical, they have also been proven to work in the most competitive environment imaginable—real-life. Knowledge Management is more than a company executive writing a memo, the company purchasing groupware, managing a collection of explicit materials, applying a fragmented policy, and creating an intranet. Having this narrow perception of Knowledge Management is akin to blind men describing an elephant by touch. Each will be correct in the perception of a part of the elephant, but they will not grasp the concept of the whole.

Knowledge Management is not a procedure or a policy. Knowledge Management is a holistic process that demands a total organizational commitment to cooperation in order to succeed. It is a process that has a beginning--an evolutionary process with products, but has no end if pursued properly. As an organization evolves, Knowledge Management must evolve right along with it. John Browne of BP has referred to the "shrinking half-life of ideas"; a good, even great idea will not keep a organization afloat indefinitely. Changes in the market, changes in the competition, and even changes within the company itself force the firm to remain abreast of the most recent developments in its situation. How does it discover and react to these changes? Information. If a company cannot access, store, retrieve, and provide the information to the proper individuals in a timely manner, then the firm will eventually fail. Knowledge Management gives the organization the opportunity to fully utilize all of its assets. This Bibliography is an attempt to collect some of the literature in a useful format for the individual interested in Knowledge Management.

Professionals who are active in the field are probably familiar with most, if not all, of the authors and material cited here. Hopefully, there will be something new that will assist the user, regardless of his/her skill or knowledge level. Who, then, is the intended audience for this work?

This Bibliography is being used by the Center for Knowledge Management at Dominican University as an adjunct to course syllabi and textbooks. It has been examined at length by students in the Knowledge Management courses offered, and I appreciate and have incorporated some the comments and suggestions that have been made.

The Bibliography was also used in and evaluated at the KM 2000 Workshop held on November 12, 1999 and March 17, 2000. This event was sponsored by the Center for Knowledge Management at Dominican University in River Forest, IL. The participants at this seminar are active in various disciplines throughout the United States.

The methodology used to compile this bibliography is as follows:

Bibliography Format:
There is a brief introduction and description of the materials included in each of the sections of the Bibliography. In the Article Section, not only does it have an introduction, each subheading in the Article Section also has a brief introduction and description of the materials contained within. The citations follow.

When compiling a bibliography, the word "comprehensive" makes one nervous, especially in a field that is growing as rapidly as Knowledge Management. Articles, books, lectures, videos, and web sites are being published and put online as fast as they can be created. At the present time, there are more than 8,000 articles and 900 books devoted to the field of Knowledge Management. Obviously, a line must be drawn in order to publish the Bibliography. The compilation could conceivably go on and on…

I think one would be very hard-pressed to keep current with the literature in Knowledge Management due to the explosive growth of the field. The continuing growth of the field indicates that Knowledge Management is not, as some have said, a flash in the pan. If Knowledge Management was a flash in the pan, then not only would the volume of literature decrease, Knowledge Management would not enjoy the growth that it does on a global scale. Knowledge Management has also shown the flexibility to be applied in virtually every knowledge-related field from academia to business strategy- and decision-making to the sciences—both physical and social.

This is not the only attempt to collect and categorize the literature of Knowledge Management on this level, just the first.

Books
(Back to Table of Contents)

The literature of Knowledge Management, as in most disciplines, began with the publication of articles in professional journals and the presentation of papers at conferences. As the volume of available information increased, the next logical step in the accumulation, creation, and dissemination of a knowledge base was the production of books.

This list contains books published with "Intellectual Capital" or "Knowledge Management" as their primary focus as taken from Books in Print, WorldCat and the inventories of amazon.com and barnesandnoble.com. The two retail sources were selected because of the sheer volume of their respective inventories and sales. The books listed should be among the most current and most often-selected works available.

The bibliography includes books covering a wide variety of categories in both the Intellectual Capital and Knowledge Management subject areas. This bibliography includes books dealing with the beginnings of Knowledge Management: Peter M. Senge’s The Fifth Discipline: The Art and Practice of the Learning Organization; KM and the art of management: Steven Albert and Keith Bradley’s Managing Knowledge: Experts, Agencies and Organizations; the impact of KM abroad: the American Productivity and Quality Center’s Knowledge Management and the Learning Organization: A European Perspective; KM and business strategy: J. Friso Den Hertog and Edward Huizenga’s The Knowledge Enterprise: Implementation of Intelligent Business Strategies; and the impact of KM on continuing business practices: Dorothy Leonard-Barton’s Wellsprings of Knowledge: Building and Sustaining the Sources of Innovation; and KM and its value to interdisciplinary studies: Kanti Srikantaiah and Michael Koenig’s Knowledge Management for the Information Professional. One of the more recent books, Richard I. Henderson’s Compensation Management in a Knowledge-Based World, covers a subject near and dear to everyone’s heart.

The literature of Knowledge Management is growing day after day--a testament to the validity of the discipline. The list of books that follows, it is hoped, will give the reader not only an over-all view of the Intellectual Capital and Knowledge Management literature that is available, but also introduce some works devoted to specific areas of interest. The reader will find many familiar names here as well as the names of some new contributors to the field.

The books included here are not grouped under the subheadings used for the articles, but they are listed alphabetically by the surname of the author or editor.

Knowledge Management/Background and Development
(Back to Table of Contents)

This group of articles serves very well as an introduction to the field of Knowledge Management. These articles tend to be broader in scope, thus providing a firm foundation upon which the reader can build. Knowledge Management is a relatively new field that is evolving and progressing rapidly. The concept of managing and utilizing data and information has existed for quite a while, but it was not until recently that its characteristics and identity came to be defined as a separate discipline. As the natural progression occurred, this field then matured into Knowledge Management. Knowledge Management is the next logical step. From compiling, processing and storing data to organizing the data (the creation of Information), and investing information with context and value beyond the information itself (the creation of Knowledge) to provide added value to the organization--whether it is in the for-profit or non-profit arena, or the private or public sectors.

As Knowledge Management found and developed its own niche, it continued to evolve and grow. Shortly thereafter, the niche became a functional entity, and the entity grew until it became a multi-faceted discipline. After all of these changes, Knowledge Management still continues to evolve. Continual evolution is the sign that, unlike other schools of thought in the management arena, Knowledge Management is not only here to stay but it will also continue its evolution into areas not yet imagined as more and more minds focus on it, add value to it, and take it further and further.

If one stops to think about it, Knowledge Management is the next logical, productive, and professional step in the way to conduct "business" whether or not the institution is a for-profit organization. Management experts have been talking for years about streamlining operations, increasing productivity, and creating revenue. Yet, until the advent of Knowledge Management, virtually every institution has not been applying the one ingredient it seeks in every employee--experience (Tacit Knowledge) to its every day pursuits.

More than many "management concepts", Knowledge Management is one concept that is useful, indeed necessary, outside of the working environment as well as within professional situations. In fact, most individuals who are at the top of their profession (whether it is in library science, the physical sciences, or any other discipline) have been practicing Knowledge Management before it had a name. They were seeking out and adding information to their skill set to enhance the value of their performance. Now that Knowledge Management has been identified and incorporated into many professional systems, these same individuals are now at the forefront in the application of Knowledge Management in their respective professions.

Knowledge Management, as stated above, has come to affect every field of human endeavor that deals with the collection, storage, dissemination, and synthesis of knowledge. The articles in this section discuss the beginnings and subsequent evolution of the subject as it has progressed from a concept to a philosophy to a working model.

Intellectual Capital
(Back to Table of Contents)

What is an asset? According to the New Shorter Oxford English Dictionary, it is "a thing or person of use or value". If one asks an accountant for examples of assets, one will get an array of answers: accounts receivable, bonds, buildings, cash, certificates of deposit, equipment, "goodwill", land, physical plant, stocks…the list goes on and on. Several years ago, if one were to ask an accountant the value of a firm’s Intellectual Capital--one would most likely have been greeted with a blank look, and a hurried excuse to go to an "imaginary" meeting. Now Intellectual Capital is sought as eagerly and intensely as profit. Why? Because Intellectual Capital has and has had a constant and significant impact on profit whether or not it was measured. Greater effectiveness, greater efficiency, greater employee involvement, higher employee morale, and increased productivity are among the results that properly managed Intellectual Capital can produce. Explicit and Tacit Knowledge are what make the business world go round. The value of Explicit Knowledge has long been known, but the greater value of Tacit Knowledge is finally being addressed. If Tacit Knowledge cannot be located, collected, stored, and distributed in a timely manner to those who need and can use it, then a firm will not last very long.

The value of Intellectual Capital has been quantified. It is valuable in the corporate suite, it is valuable to the Administrative Assistant, it is valuable in the hallowed halls of academia, and it is also has value on the floor of a factory. Ask any productive employee at any level: Who does one call to ensure that an "emergency" task gets done correctly and on time the first time? That information is worth its weight in gold to any organization. Every employee knows the answer to that question after a period of time, but wouldn't it be better if every employee knew the answer as soon as it was needed? This type of knowledge has been around since the beginning of the business world and its value is in direct proportion to the effort and time required to locate the answer.

Knowledge of one's given field has always been a requirement for an individual to perform productively in a professional environment. Given the explosion of inter-disciplinary functions and operations, it is now essential that if one does not have expertise in another, separate discipline, then one needs to know where the requisite expertise lies and how to get access to it in a timely manner. It is only recently that various forms of endeavor have identified Intellectual Capital as an asset that not only needs to be defined and utilized, but also valued and pursued as much as a positive cash flow.

This section discusses the collection, compilation, storage, accessibility, and utilization of this long-overlooked but indispensable asset.

Knowledge Management and the Learning Organization
(Back to Table of Contents)

Continuing education, continuation training, as well as seminar and conference attendance are prerequisites for any employee who wants to remain abreast of current events, innovations, and issues in his or her respective area of expertise. If the whole is equal to the sum of its parts, then the organization as a whole must move forward as well. The organization must not merely approve of employee intellectual improvement, it must demand and actively support the educational efforts of all employees regardless of their position in the company. Organizations have routinely offered the option for the intellectual improvement of its management and corporate hierarchy. Since the world is changing as rapidly as it is, this option must be extended to every person on the company payroll because the actions of every person on the company payroll have an impact on the firm. Continuing education is no longer a perk. It is a necessity.

If intellectual improvement is perceived as an option awarded to "The Chosen Few", then disaffection will soon spread throughout the organization. As more employees become involved in continuing their education, the firm, in turn, will reap greater benefits. The greater the employees’ stake in the organization’s success becomes, their efforts to increase productivity and quality will soon increase as well. No matter how skilled a company’s personnel are, unless they (and their organization) move forward together as an intellectual entity, they will eventually be overtaken by their competitors.

The environment in which the organization functions and the organization itself are constantly in flux. No matter how effective or efficient any system is, unless it is consistently and constantly improved upon, the organization will eventually fall behind.

No matter how good an idea is, unless it is continually scrutinized, reworked, and improved, the advantage it gave the organization will disappear.

This will be avoided by continually learning more about oneself, one’s skills and talents, the organization itself, customer needs, one’s suppliers’ procedures and policies, and one’s competition. The organization can assist in this undertaking by fostering intellectual improvement at every level in the company.

Getting and staying ahead means the productive use of all knowledge in the organization by all of its members. This is a Learning Organization.

These articles deal with the creation, implementation, and maintenance of a learning organization.

Knowledge Cultures/Knowledge-Based Organizations
(Back to Table of Contents)

This topic may seem very similar to "Knowledge Management and the Learning Organization", and it is. But it is not identical. The key word here is "Culture"—the beliefs, conduct, norms, and values that are defined as appropriate behavior by a firm and are encouraged by upper management. Knowledge Management must be integrated into the organizational culture. Unless upper management visibly supports all aspects of a Knowledge Management project, no matter how relevant, useful, and valid a Knowledge Management program is, it will invariably fail because the employees can see that it is not perceived as valuable by the upper echelon.

If a Knowledge Management program is going to be successful, then it must be supported throughout the entire organization. Any organizational changes must be adopted by the organizational culture as a whole in order to be successful. Organization-wide acceptance of change is the single most difficult, the most expensive, and the most time-consuming stage in the process. It difficulty lies in the fact that most humans do not like change, especially if the organization is going back to the old ways eventually. "This one will go away after six months just like (choose your acronym)." Trying to adapt to change can be a traumatic event--especially after all of the build-up that traditionally precedes it. Factor in the pressure created because the change comes from the Executive Suite, and this situation can become unbearable--especially if the change that is recommended fails from lack of support from those who initiated it. In extreme cases, employees will become apathetic and disaffected.

As rapidly as the business world is moving today, an organization must accept and support Knowledge Management throughout its entire structure—not just in the "Information Technology", "Knowledge Management", or "Technical Services" departments. Knowledge creation and sustenance are essential. The culture of the organization must change and support the Knowledge Culture. In order to be successful, Knowledge Management must be an organizational imperative. If not, an organization can miss an opportunity that will break the company.

Knowledge Mapping/Information Audit
(Back to Table of Contents)

Knowledge is everywhere. The $64,000 questions are: where is it, who has it, and how do we get it to those who need it when they need it? The Knowledge Map/Information Audit are two ways that will assure a company a proper beginning to its Knowledge Management program. Haphazard application of any new system will cause the system to fail, regardless of the quality of the system. To implement a Knowledge Management program properly, much groundwork must be done in terms of changing the organizational culture. Since this is the most difficult and lengthy process of the implementation procedure, it must be started first. The Knowledge Map/Information Audit is the next step toward the goal. If a The Knowledge Map/Information Audit is not done prior to any computer, network, or personnel changes, then all of the effort, resources, and time will be wasted. How will the new systems be selected, and by whom? Who will have access to which parts of the system? Who is best suited to oversee each section? These questions are best answered by a Knowledge Map/Information Audit. Unless a company has unlimited resources, a Knowledge Map/Information Audit is an absolute necessity.

The ultimate objective of Knowledge Management is to get the necessary knowledge to the people who can best apply it in time for it to have a positive impact on the organization. Knowledge managers are generally familiar with the systems and infrastructure since they often have a hand in its creation. They are also very likely to know what specific knowledge is located where and with whom. What about the other employees in the organization who are expected to contribute to and use Knowledge Management? The Knowledge Map/Information Audit can also provide valuable information to other members of the organization who access to the knowledge as a prerequisite to performing their jobs.

The Knowledge Map/Information Audit is a way for an organization to not only see where it is in terms of its Knowledge Management program, but also assist in planning its future development. While the Information Audit can indicate shortfalls in performance, it can also indicate where the organizational performance has exceeded expectations.

Knowledge Management and Its Organizational Aspects
(Back to Table of Contents)

Human beings do not like change. Large groups of humans (like organizations, for example), like change even less. Therefore, whenever a new discipline comes along, there is stiff resistance to implementing it. "Things are just fine the way they are." "Once we get used to one thing, they start another." The implementation of change is made more difficult when concrete evidence of its value is slow in coming, or even worse, the results of the change are hard to quantify.

Knowledge Management is a process, a perpetual process. Unlike a monthly Income Statement or a product run, it has no end. It is a continuing, evolving function that changes to meet the changing needs of the organization as the organization and its internal and external environments change. Knowledge Management is not a department within the organization. It is, rather, a function that permeates the organization. From the Finance Department to the shop floor, Knowledge Management reaches out to and connects all departments, thus making the organization more focused. The time of an individual working in a vacuum is long gone. Knowledge Management facilitates the pooling of assets from individual departments throughout the organization. Rather than the group that has information determining if anyone could use it, Knowledge Management makes it available to all. Allowing everyone who might need these insights to determine whether or not something can or cannot be modified to meet their needs.

Knowledge must be explicitly managed. This concept does not mean that once the system is started that it is a static proposition. The system must also be amenable to change because change permeates the organization and its environments.

Therefore, it is absolutely essential that it be supported throughout the organization—from upper management to the newest recruit. If the organization does not fully and absolutely support Knowledge Management, then it will become yet another failed management fad. Knowledge Management has value, it has uses for every organization everywhere, regardless of the type of business the organization does.

In any organization, it is not difficult to see what project(s) have the support of senior management. These are the projects that get everyone’s greatest effort in order to make them succeed, they are the ones most talked about, the ones that receive the most attention throughout the organization as well as the best financial backing. Knowledge Management, especially in the beginning, must also have this type of continual and absolute support. Once the Knowledge Management program is up and running, it is crucial that it still receives the attention and support (of all kinds) from the upper echelon. As the Knowledge Management program achieves some successes and proves its worth, then the organization will be won over to its side.

These articles describe different strategies for making Knowledge Management an organizational imperative, not just a departmental one.

Knowledge Management and the Information Professional
(Back to Table of Contents)

Information Technology is not the end-all, be-all of a Knowledge Management program. No matter how sophisticated a system is, it is created, maintained, and modified by human Information Professionals. Information Technology enables changes to occur within the organization. It does not make the changes in and of itself. That is the role of the employees and the Information Professionals. The Information Professional is able to assess current (and future) situations, determine the value of the technology that is in place, and make recommendations on the modifications that should occur. No machine can do that. No machine is yet able to reason.

The Human Capital of an organization is still its greatest asset. Knowledge Management enables an organization to create an environment that is conducive to making the greatest use of this asset. The Information Professional is the individual who is best educated and best prepared to take this untapped resource, add it to Information Technology that exists and utilize it to its greatest advantage, helping both the organization and the people within the organization. The Information Professional understands the technology, the people, and the processes that are a Knowledge Management system.

CIO’s, CKO’s, Information Specialists, Knowledge Facilitators…Knowledge Management has created new jobs and new functions. Knowledge Management has also had a great influence on existing information-oriented jobs like Librarians and Computer Technicians. Not only do all of these individuals (both The Old Guard and The New Kids) need to work together in order to create this new World of Knowledge, but they also have to learn to integrate the many changes that have taken place and will continue to be taking place within the organization.

Knowledge Management is not the express domain of any of these positions individually. All of these functions have something to contribute—and it is imperative that an atmosphere of mutual cooperation be created and fostered by the organization in order to allow the potential that exists within any organization to be realized.

Ways that these individuals can work together to create a new organizational World of Knowledge is discussed in the following articles.

Knowledge Management Issues
(Back to Table of Contents)

Knowledge Management is thought by some to be a self-contained, individual department within the firm. Yes, the function it serves affects the firm in a direct manner—just as the Finance Department, the Marketing Department, etc. In fact, Knowledge Management is a truly inter-departmental function, providing all groups within the organization the opportunity to connect with one another and share valuable information.

Authority, cooperation, resource sharing, technology implementation, and territory…all of these issues are crucial to the any executive whose responsibility includes the management of a department. In order to perform effectively, each group of employees must have the tools that enable them to perform their jobs well. Individuals involved with Knowledge Management are no different. As the newest addition to organizational culture, Knowledge Management must establish itself as a viable, contributing part of the organization. If Knowledge Management is perceived as simply another management fad that will fade into obscurity in six months, then it will never be given the opportunity or the resources that would allow it to succeed.

Besides the usual corporate in-fighting, there are other issues that Knowledge Management as a new discipline must face. These include the creation and maintenance of an atmosphere of trust and reciprocity within the firm, the creation of a knowledge-sharing environment, and the ethics of information and knowledge sharing and use, among others.

Becoming an accepted part of an organization is a difficult task, but it is even more difficult when no one in the organization knows how to measure the contribution. The creation of legitimacy for the work that Knowledge Management does, how to be taken seriously, how to get adequate financial and organizational support, how to get the organization actively involved in Knowledge Management…these are the first barriers a new Knowledge Management program faces, but they are certainly not the last. Advice on how to succeed in these difficult endeavors is given in the articles that follow.

Knowledge Management and Information Technology
(Back to Table of Contents)

The Information Technology boom has benefited everyone—but few more so than those in the field of Knowledge Management. Knowledge Management has also assisted in the development of new Information Technology, as well. It is obvious that each of these areas is dependent upon the other to assist each other's respective growth. The technology that has been (and continues to be) developed has provided Knowledge Management the technological ability to fulfill its mission.

What Information Technology does is provide a platform, a foundation upon which to build a Knowledge Management program. Without Information Technology, those in the field of Knowledge Management could still perform their function, but I am certain that it would be far more difficult. Information Technology is one side of the triangle that is Knowledge Management. The other two include Information Professionals and Processes, both of which are discussed in other parts of this Bibliography.

While Information Technology is, in fact, an integral part of Knowledge Management, Information Technology is a Knowledge Management enabler—not the sum total of a Knowledge Management program. It is easy to get caught up in the desire to have state-of-the-art technology in one's firm, but it is imperative that an organization not stake its Knowledge Management program on the purchase of new computer products. The other two sides of the triangle must be accounted for as well.

Knowledge Management practicioners must never forget the human element and the processes that allow Information Technology to work. What follows is a selection of articles describing the value of Information Technology in the realm of Knowledge Management.

Knowledge Management and Intranets
(Back to Table of Contents)

Information Technology, as stated earlier, has had a major impact on the evolution and development of Knowledge Management. One of the applications of Information Technology to evolve that has had a singularly potent effect on Knowledge Management is the Intranet—an internal network of connected work stations and servers whose purpose is to link related (or seemingly unrelated) functions and personnel in an effort to make Knowledge Sharing and Knowledge Management easier, faster, and more efficient.

The Intranet is a powerful tool, but it is just that--a tool. Regardless of its power, its potential, or its reach, Information Technology still has one shortfall--it cannot create knowledge. Information Technology provides a platform for it, stores it, and makes it accessible, but it cannot create it. The human element is still the over-riding factor that makes Knowledge Management what it is.

Tools do not create. Tools allow work to be done in a more effective manner. Used properly, it is an effective and very efficient vehicle to facilitate Knowledge Sharing, and Intranets do a wonderful job facilitating Knowledge Management. The following articles discuss the creation, evolution, and current uses of Intranets.

Knowledge Management Application Packages
(Back to Table of Contents)

Any field of endeavor, if it is alive and well, is constantly changing. As it changes, decisions must be made in order to keep the current hardware and software system as useful and up-to-date as possible. Every concept or every hardware or software system does not work for every Knowledge Management program. Decisions must be made as to what combination of human endeavor, process, and technology will best suit a given situation.

The Technology Boom, as mentioned earlier, has made a significant impact upon the field of Knowledge Management. Innovations such as DSL, groupware, Intranets, ISDN, LotusNotes, and shareware have allowed Knowledge Management professionals to customize the hardware and software they use. As everyone who uses computers knows, the most current applications are being modified and improved all of the time.

Every organization has some knowledge needs in common with other businesses. However, depending on its specific field of expertise, it will also have very specific needs, as well. The challenge in creating these Application Packages is to make them as flexible as possible. The systems need to be able to allow not only the creation of any specific functions a firm might need to have, but also be compatible with the hardware and software system the organization is currently using. The system must have the flexibility to expand as the needs of the Knowledge Management program grow, as well.

One error that many firms make is not taking advantage of the knowledge of those who use the system day in and day out. After all, who is better to qualified to discuss a given job function and its corresponding system than those who do it day in and day out?

This group of articles not only discusses the technology that is available, it also provides some commentary on the suitability of these programs for various organizations, processes, and users.

Knowledge Management Initiatives
(Back to Table of Contents)

The newer the field, the faster and more numerous the changes within the field--especially if it is being adopted by more and more organizations. Throughout this Bibliography, virtually all of the discussion has linked Knowledge Management and the world of business. That is not to say that the only discipline that can apply Knowledge Management to its operations is business-related. In my opinion, the best thing about Knowledge Management is its ability to be applied to virtually any organization, whether it is non-profit or for profit, or in the private sector or in the public sector.

Even though two organizations are vastly different in their missions, goals, and objectives, it is certainly possible, if not probable that they have many knowledge requirements that are similar. The value of Knowledge Management is that its application is broad enough to allow interdisciplinary commonalities to be dealt with, and it can also be specific enough to deal with the proverbial one-in-a-million situation.

The existence and proliferation of interdisciplinary work has re-emphasized the fact that not all of the most current, usable information will come solely from within one given area of expertise. Therefore, Information Professionals must be aware of developments in other areas, being alert for improvements that begin in a different field, yet have uses that can be transferred to and assist in their work in a different field of study. The awareness of happenings in other areas of study is part of what makes Knowledge Management practitioners unique—the ability to see not only the developments within one function, but also take them, modify or improve their underlying mechanisms and apply these functions to other, seemingly unrelated operations.

This group of writings is an effort to provide an overview of some of the more recent programs and innovations in Knowledge Management being pursued in various applications.

Knowledge Management and Training
(Back to Table of Contents)

New equipment, new or changed job functions, new employees, new procedures, and new subjects of study—all of these things require training to provide both current users and new employees with the necessary skills to be able to use the change agents in the most effective and efficient ways possible.

Knowledge Management is the perfect vehicle to increase the value of employee training. By its very nature, Knowledge Management seeks to create an environment which includes Shared Knowledge, functions that can be shared throughout the organization. What better place to start involving employees in a Knowledge Management program than in Initial or Continuation Training? If a new employee is given training emphasizing the value and necessity of Knowledge Management, then he or she will work using Knowledge Management as a foundation.

The main issue with change that most current employees in an organization have is the alleged value of all of the changes. By using Knowledge Management techniques in Continuation Training; e. g., the creation of a Best Practices database, or by demonstrating the benefits of Shared Knowledge, the skeptical employee can see first-hand the true value of Knowledge Management which is to make him or her a more effective and skilled employee. An employee who has performed a given function for an extended period of time often forgets to pass on relevant Tacit Knowledge to new employees. Is it an intentional slight? No. After a period of time, many operations become so ingrained that they become automatic—almost instinctive, and so the training employee doesn’t think to pass this information to others. As a result, the previously skeptical employee can become an agent for change rather than someone who goes back to the workplace decrying the change as yet another soon-to-fail management technique.

The flexibility and innovations that have made Knowledge Management such a valuable tool in the business world can make a substantial contribution in the area of Human Relations and Training as well. After all, how much value does an untrained or under-trained employee have?

Knowledge Management: eCommerce and .coms
(Back to Table of Contents)

Five years ago, approximately 20 % of Fortune 500 companies had Web sites. Now, that number is 100 %. Why? Because the value of a presence on the World Wide Web has been proven to be a prerequisite to doing business in the 21st Century.

Amazon.com, ebay.com, E*TRADE.com—the new blood in the business world has a presence on the Web. And now, even old, established firms like Marshall Field’s (www.marshallfields.com) have joined in this trend. Is it going to end? Not likely. In fact, it is projected that eCommerce will increase exponentially in the future. New companies, old companies, companies trying to renew or re-invent themselves are realizing that there is a vast, virtually untapped market in cyberspace.

The question now becomes how to be successful in this new medium. Obviously, old procedures and policies will not work in this new, rapidly changing environment. How does an organization provide quality service in a virtual environment without alluring merchandise displays or helpful sales staff? The ambiance, the individualized customer service, and the physical presence of a store will no longer exist. Does that mean that customers will accept poor service since the transaction is completed on the computer? Absolutely not.

Knowledge Management is the key to keeping customer loyalty while changing customer’s perceptions about this new environment. Employees and managers will have to learn a new set of skills to satisfy the new needs that this medium creates. The effective and efficient use of knowledge is more important than ever. Should a problem occur with a shipment, there may not be a "manager" to whom the customer can complain in person. The lack of interpersonal contact exists, but by using Knowledge Management techniques ranging from Best Practices to Shared Knowledge, the problems can be rectified without any long-term damage to the customer-provider relationship.

These articles look at the fleeting present and the long-term future of the phenomenon that allows consumers to go "into" almost any store or business without leaving their home or office.

Knowledge Management Chapters in Conference Proceedings
(Back to Table of Contents)

The cycle of creation starts in the laboratory with a concept, a thought. It then moves to discussion of the concept, processe, or theory with one’s peers. This occasionally causes the researcher to re-evaluate some of his or her concepts or perhaps the approaches used. The next stage is usually the presentation of new ideas or utilities at conferences. The additions, changes, or refutations that occur in the arena of debate are among the most important stages of the process. Next is the publication of journal articles that can foster further debate and improvement. At this point, the subject matter is in the "real world". Virtually all scholarship projects have used this cycle to help further the knowledge of their respective disciplines.

Presentation of papers at conferences and seminars allows a concentrated group of professionals to hear what possibilities the new changes and innovations in a given field have to offer. The primary value of these meetings is to put the collective intellects of these individuals together so that the communication is instantaneous and personal. Electronic communication is considered by many to be the be-all and end-all in terms of exchanging ideas and information. Yes, it is fast, and yes, it is inexpensive, but it does not allow for the most important part of communication—face-to-face conversation. Gestures, facial expressions, and posture cannot be conveyed in print. The majority of meaning in communication takes place non-verbally. This is the major benefit of conferences and seminars. Another benefit of face-to-face communication is instantaneous feedback and response. Oftentimes, a question occurs to someone reading correspondence. The reader is interrupted, has to handle an unrelated situation, comes back and realizes that he or she has forgotten the question. Speaking to the writer in person provides a greater opportunity for specific conversation and immediate response.

These Conference Papers will be an excellent guide to cutting-edge information that has been presented at various conferences of various groups who are interested in and pursuing Knowledge Management.

Knowledge Management and Competitive Intelligence
(Back to Table of Contents)

The acquisition of knowledge is the core function of Knowledge Management. Does it matter how this information is acquired? Absolutely. When one thinks of Competitive Intelligence, it has conjured up visions of Industrial Espionage replete with trench coats, fedoras, and whispered conversations in alleys. That, of course, is one of the more unsavory ways of compiling Competitive Intelligence. Is that the only way? Of course not.

The ability to ethically acquire the Competitive Intelligence a firm needs to compete is a skill that has been not given its just due. In order to get quality information, an employee must be a skilled researcher, willing to share knowledge (sources), and be willing to look to others for assistance as needed. Competitive Intelligence is one of the concrete ways in which the people, processes, and technology of a Knowledge Management program can show the financial benefits of adopting this strategy.

The organization with the best Competitive Intelligence division will have a substantial advantage in the workplace whether it involves anticipating market changes, knowing what one’s customer needs, or updating production practices. There is no area of business in which Competitive Intelligence cannot play a proactive role. As any organizational manager knows, the firm that is the most proactive in its business undertakings is the one that will succeed. Competitive Intelligence, if used correctly and in a timely manner can be a great contributor to the success of an organization. If the available Competitive Intelligence is not used, then the firm will soon be in dire straits.

As the reader looks through this Bibliography, the word, "competitive" is used often in the titles of articles, books, and journals. Competition is a fact of life. Any legitimate advantage that can be taken by an organization can only allow it a greater chance for success.

There are many legitimate ways to collect data, and it is truly a skill to do it well. This group of articles discusses some of the legitimate ways in which this truly necessary component of Knowledge Management can be done in an ethical manner.

Web Sites
(Back to Table of Contents)

I am a big fan of print in any format—books, journals, newspapers, etc. The Electronic Age of the last several years has been making significant changes in our daily lives. Much of the information that was only available in print is now available electronically: books, journals, newspapers, etc. In order to remain competitive, an organization must be active in both arenas—electronic and print.

Among the many technological advances that have come in the recent past, the Internet and its many and varied uses may be the single most influential way of communicating since the telephone. Easily accessible, fast, and relatively inexpensive, the Internet and its accompanying technology can carry text, pictures, video, and even voice transmission in a fraction of the time it used to take to communicate with others. The greatest benefit of electronic communication is speed. Once this book was printed, it becomes a static artifact. If I find a journal article on eCommerce, it must wait until the next edition of this book is printed. It can be posted electronically as soon as it is located.

About five years ago, about 20 % of the Fortune 500 companies had web sites. Now, the figure is 100 %. Just having and maintaining a web site is not enough. It must be accessible (easily-located), authoritative, current, professionally-maintained, and user-friendly in order to be effective. The greatest benefit of these properties is currency. As stated above, as events occur, they can be posted to the web site and made available to both customers and users.

As new technology comes into use, decisions must be made to determine the value (if any) of the new technology to the organization. Just because something is new doesn’t mean that every organization should use it. Care should be exercised to ensure that the web site user is not overwhelmed by graphics and other paraphernalia that detract from the value of the site.

The web sites that follow are just a few among the many that exist. The web sites are not indexed, just listed here in alphabetical order. All were viewed between January 2000 and June 2000.

Videos
(Back to Table of Contents)

The videos listed here are not grouped into subheadings. This list contains those videos produced with "Intellectual Capital" or "Knowledge Management" as their primary focus as taken from the inventories of amazon.com and barnesandnoble.com. These two sources were selected because of the sheer volume of their respective inventories, and the videos should be among the most current available.

These will be very helpful as an adjunct to a lecture, seminar, a training session, or for use by the Auditory Learner.
