Book Description
Successfully implement and utilize knowledge management in any size company group—large or small.
Book covers both the explanation of the subject and the process, but also practical steps for understanding and implementing knowledge management in any size company or group.
Author is a well-respected expert with one of the top companies in the world known for their knowledge management program.
Lots of special sales, international, customized, corporate and government opportunities for this title. The KM mantra is that the sum of the company is greater than the individual knowledge of each employee. That philosophy not only sums up knowledge management, but also demonstrates first-hand why KM can be so hard to implement. In the old corporate environment, individual knowledge is power. But in the new corporate economy, an individuals worth is not only based on what he or she knows, but how easily and successfully he or she shares it. Enter knowledge management. Hundreds of thousands of employees today and millions tomorrow are and will be affected by KM programs. The Complete Idiots Guide® to Knowledge Management is a handbook for those employees and managers—not only to explain to them what is happening, but to show them how they, too, can implement practical KM solutions at any level of management or size of company. Coverage includes- KM models and concepts; getting buy-in and evangelizing; how to take a small pilot program big; why culture is so important and how to effect change; how IT drives KM and vice versa; and measurement to goals and for success.

Synopsis
The KM mantra is that the sum of the company is greater than the individual knowledge of each employee. That philosophy not only sums up knowledge management, but also demonstrates first-hand why KM can be so hard to implement. In the old corporate environment, individual knowledge is power. But in the new corporate economy, an individual's worth is not only based on what he or she knows, but how easily and successfully he or she shares it. Enter knowledge management. Hundreds of thousands of employees today and millions tomorrow are and will be affected by KM programs. The Complete Idiot's GuideA (R) to Knowledge Management is a handbook for those employees and managers-not only to explain to them what is happening, but to show them how they, too, can implement practical KM solutions at any level of management or size of company. Coverage includes: KM models and concepts; getting buy-in and evangelizing; how to take a small pilot program big; why culture is so important and how to effect change; how IT drives KM and vice versa; and measurement to goals and for success.

Most Helpful Customer Reviews   26 of 28 people found the following review helpful: Far better than many of the other 'academic' books, 4 Oct 2001 By  dariusbaria@totalise.co.uk (Nottingham, UK) - See all my reviews This well thought-out book provides one of the easiest and intuitive explanations of knowledge management. Indeed, the definition is one you can say to others when they ask you "what is knowledge management?". The author's practical and personal experience of trying to implement knowledge management strategies into companies has seeped into every page and there are plenty of golden 'knowledge nuggets' from her learning the hard way. One thing that could be improved :- there still isn't enough detail to actually implement a KM strategy at a lower level - but then again - it is an 'idiot's guide'!  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
