General
- Knowledge is a
form of Information, which can exist only within an individuals’
mind. It being subjective, cannot be directly transferred or
communicated from one person to another, but must be converted into
Information first. In simple terms Knowledge Management means,
management of Knowledge.
- Knowledge
management enables the creation, communication and application of
Knowledge of all kinds to achieve goals. (Source: - The Knowledge
Management tool kit –Amrit Tiwana) Knowledge Management can be
defined as “the art of creating value of an organization’s
intangible assets”.
- Distributed
Knowledge Management is an approach to knowledge management based on
the principle that the multiplicity (and heterogeneity) of
perspectives within complex organizations is not be viewed as an
obstacle to knowledge exploitation, but rather as an opportunity
that can foster innovation and creativity.
Applications
- Knowledge
Management (KM) plays important roles in Public Administration (PA).
Each role serves specific constituencies and purposes and is
implemented differently. Jointly, they build society’s intellectual
capital (IC) to improve the effectiveness of public and private
decision making and situation handling.
- Broad KM practice
must ultimately be the responsibility of each public agency and each
civil servant. Without broad agreement on concepts KM will not be
effective. A separate, but small PA entity or office should be
created to support the KM practice. Its function must be supportive,
innovative, and collaborative.
- Knowledge
management primer is meant to provide health officials and other
public health practitioners a high level introduction into the
concepts involved in knowledge management, and to share some ideas
about how experts and practitioners have attempted to organize their
information.
Technology
- Digital
technology has long seemed to be an obvious way to improve
enterprise knowledge management. Information that is represented
digitally and placed on an intranet can be accessed by anyone in the
organization any time in the future. They are expensive to create
and maintain, limited in scope, and cumbersome to use.
- A Technology can
be applied to knowledge management and to assess their actual or
potential contribution to the basic processes of knowledge creation
and sharing within organizations. The aim is to identify trends and
new developments that seem to be significant and to relate them to
technology research in the field, rather than to provide a
comprehensive review of available products.
