The Human Foundation of Knowledge Management

Abstract

Effective knowledge organisation and management is now considered to be a major precondition for successful corporate administration and management. The concept of knowledge organisation includes all the processes and activities needed to optimise the knowledge needed for a company to perform efficiently. It implies that a large amount of implicit knowledge is contained in the organisational structures and the production processes of the company, in the rules of interaction between different persons and groups, and especially in the successful performance of highly qualified employees. One main purpose of knowledge management is to identify the entire body of such knowledge and to make it accessible to all the members of an organisation.
