Download or read book Shedding New Lights on Organisational Learning Knowledge and Capabilities written by Joaquin Alegre and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-30 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research on organisational learning, knowledge and capabilities has indeed become one of the most fruitful and interesting areas in the field of management, and has not only improved our understanding of organisations, but also helped them to face the new challenges of our turbulent age. Are our organizations learning to face a new age? What kinds of learning and knowledge are necessary to understand our age? What new lights can help us to understand organisational learning and knowledge? Are there shades? Shedding New Lights dispels uncertainties and provides a better observation and understanding of this particular phenomenon. This book includes an overview of the major topics on organisational learning, knowledge and capabilities. There are three parts: the first focuses on organisational learning, and particularly on practice and communities of practice. The second part deals with knowledge creation and transfer, two main knowledge management processes that are extremely relevant for firm performance. Finally, the third part examines the phenomenon of ambidexterity (explorative and exploitative learning) and the absorptive capacity of the firm.

Download or read book Organization Theories in the Making written by Linda Rouleau and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-08-25 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organization Theories in the Making aims to demonstrate how, over the last 25 years, the field of organization theories (OTs) has been providing stimulating, thoughtful, and innovative perspectives. The book offers a selective immersion in organizational institutionalism, convention analysis, network analysis, knowledge studies, discourse studies, and practice studies. For each of these perspectives, the book explores its different research streams and zooms in the research communities that give rise to them. In addition, it highlights how these perspectives all intersect with each other to form a mosaic of ideas that define today's organizations. Rouleau also invites graduate students and early career researchers to learn how recent theories view and portray the organization and, more specifically, to understand current research questions, conceptual resources, and methods. A deep knowledge of recent OTs is key when building a compelling literature review and making meaningful theoretical contributions. This book offers readers with the opportunity to develop their theory-building skills and more by taking a deep dive in the complexities and controversies of OTs. The main arguments of each perspective are illustrated by specific exemplars from academic journals. Each chapter contains a synoptic table summarizing the main scholarly components within each perspective and its research substreams.

Download or read book From Knowledge Management to Strategic Competence written by Joe Tidd and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There continues to be much interest in the business and academic communities in the concept of strategic competencies or core capabilities, in other words, how organisations define and differentiate themselves. More recently, this movement has fragmented into a number of related fields with subtle differences in focus: knowledge management — how organisations identify, share and exploit their internal competencies, in particular the knowledge of individuals; organisational learning — the relationship between individual and organisational knowledge and how organisations 'unlearn' past competencies and acquire new competencies; strategic management — how competencies can be assessed, and how these contribute to performance; and innovation management — how such competencies are translated into new processes, products and services. This book attempts to integrate strategic and knowledge management approaches to capability-building and the development of competencies. The third edition is fully updated with five additional chapters by bringing together the latest research and practices from experts in the field.In addition, this book is a core text for the Imperial College London's Distance Learning MBA, and contains essential readings for students enrolled in this programme.

Download or read book International Theory and German Foreign Policy written by Jakub Eberle and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-06-23 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central aim of this book is to foster connections between scholarly discussions of German foreign policy and broader theoretical debates in International Relations and beyond. While there has been a lively discussion about ‘new German foreign policy’, this book argues that it has not engaged substantially with international and foreign policy theory, especially with respect to its more recent developments. Reviewing the recent literature on German foreign policy, this book posits that the most discussed works are still largely provided by the ‘Altmeister’ (Maull, Szabo, Bulmer and Paterson) who were already dominating the field a quarter of a century ago. While there is a general decline in the academic study of German foreign policy, the chapters in this edited volume show that a range of novel, theoretically sophisticated but often disconnected scholarship has appeared on the margins. This book contributes to this emerging work by providing conceptual interrogations, which question the existing research and provide theoretically-grounded alternatives; initiating critical discussions and evaluations of the nature of Germany’s actorness and the environment in which it operates and proposing applications of less familiar perspectives on German foreign policy. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of German Politics.

Download or read book Organisational Learning and the Modern Army written by Tom Dyson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-08 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing upon extensive original research, this book explores best practice in army lessons-learned processes. Without the correct learning mechanisms, military adaptation can be blocked, or the wider lessons from adaptation can easily be lost, leading to the need to relearn lessons in the field, often at great human and financial cost. This book analyses the organisational processes and activities which can help improve tactical- and operational-level learning through case studies of lessons learned in two key NATO armies: that of Britain and of Germany. Providing the first comparative analysis of the variables which facilitate or impede the emergence of best practice in military learning, it makes an important contribution to the growing scholarship on knowledge management and learning in public organisations. It will be of much interest to lessons-learned practitioners, and students of military and strategic studies, defence studies, organisation studies and security studies.
