Knowledge Management
View future Management Training Courses
In business terms knowledge management is the process that a company takes to utilise knowledge and to use it for business purposes. The knowledge spoken of here is often primarily internal knowledge based on past experiences although to be used to best effect a knowledge management focus should also include knowledge gained from external sources. This knowledge can be used to maximise the success of a business -- if used correctly -- which is where knowledge management techniques come into play.
The knowledge or experience that a business has or can access can be an invaluable business tool. A company that takes knowledge management seriously will pull in knowledge from various sources and will use it for various initiatives/aims. The knowledge of employees, for example, is invaluable to the successful running of a business and its profits.
A company that is serious about knowledge management will therefore attempt to build a culture where internal knowledge is shared between all employees and where external knowledge is also gathered and used as appropriate. External knowledge factors can also be extremely important here. A business can gain a lot of useful information from customer and partner knowledge, for example, that can help it meet its business targets.
