What is Knowledge Management about?
For centuries in the commercial world, professional expertise was passed on through apprenticeships and various forms of collective memory. This changed with the introduction of the assembly line as a method of production. The assembly lines provided the structural memory for the process involved in the production of several goods, the design of which enabled mass production. This trend is reflected in recent times in the industrial era where the main competitive advantages originated from lower production cost and higher productivity.
In today’s economy, learning and knowledge have become key success factors for international competitiveness with the result that intangible resources have become vitally important. Organisations have seen the competitive battlefield shift from tangible resources (capital, raw materials, land, machinery, etc.) to intangible resources where elements like knowledge and the ability to manage it (knowledge management) play a crucial role for business success.
