Best practice and
beyond: Five accounts of knowledge strategies |
|
|
Explores the practical implications of
a wider view of knowledge for strategy formulation. As
traditional structural advantages decay and more products and
services enter the global competitive arena, strategies formed
around knowledge can change the game and open up new paths to
profitability. The bulk of the fixed cost in knowledge products
usually lies in creation rather than in manufacturing or
distribution. Once the knowledge has been created, the initial
development cost can be spread across rising volumes. :Jonathan
Day, James Wendler :The McKinsey Quarterly, :6/1/1998

"What" Is in the World of Work
and Working: The Shift to Knowledge Work |
|
|
The world of work has been turned
topsy- turvy by a shift from manual work to knowledge work. As a
result, managers, consultants, academics, and other professionals
in the fields of management, performance, and instruction have
two reasons to reexamine their relationship to that world: (1) as
knowledge workers, it is their world; and, (2) as professionals,
it is their market. Discusses skill, role, control and power
shifts related to knowledge working. :Fred Nickols :The Distance

Capping the Gusher:
Turning Information Torrents into Competitive
Power |
|
|
Although businesses are awash in
information and most are using it to support their current
business models, few companies are leveraging information
strategically. Firms that do can drive profitable, top-line
growth. They also achieve tighter integration across business
units, are better able to monitor customer and competitor
activity, and tend to be first in identifying new business
opportunities. Our research shows how companies can harness
information deliberately to help power their businesses. :Jane C.

KMWorld's 100 Companies
that Matter in Knowledge Management 2003 |
|
|
Just as in previous years, the list
was conceived as a way to identify some of the organizations
leading the way in the knowledge economy. It was compiled
informally through discussions with colleagues, analysts, vendors
(and their competitors) and has been designed to encourage the
broader discussion of knowledge management. Criteria for
inclusion varied, but all companies have things in common. Each
has either helped to create a market, redefine one or enhance
one, and they all share one thingÐvelocity of innovation.

Unlocking the value
of intellectual assets |
|
|
Too often, hugely promising inventions
were unused by the companies that owned them and, at the same
time, off-limits to third parties that understood their true
value. Meanwhile, as the return on investment in physical assets
has declined, the return on intangibles has soared. Insofar as
such assets were managed at all, they were mostly managed
defensively: after a company's labs developed something new, the
legal department would get a patent and try to ensure that third
parties didn't infringe on or otherwise misappropriate it.

Knowledge Management
Research Report 2000 |

All of us operate as members of the
information society. What matters is what we know and how we
deploy that knowledge. The emergence of the 'dot.com' economy
demonstrates the importance of know-how over the traditional
sources of economic power, such as capital, plant and labour. The
organisations that prosper in the future will be those that
capture, expand and exploit their know-how - in all its guises.
