Abstract

Public and private organizations all over the world have recognized the importance of knowledge to their long-term survival and success. Academicians and practitioners observe that knowledge is one of the most important sources of competitive advantage and the greatest asset for organizations. Boisot (1999) observes that we live today in a postindustrial society in which knowledge has increasingly come to be recognized as a primary source of wealth. He further states that the evidence has become overwhelming that economies that are poor in natural resources but skilled in the production and exploitation of knowledge generally outperform economies that have abundant natural resources but are lacking in such skills.
