Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Business economics - Personnel and Organisation, grade: 75 %, Queensland University of Technology, course: Contemporary Issues in HRM, language: English, abstract: Since the beginning of the 1990's knowledge management has gained a significant role in research as well as in practice in today's global organisations. This is due to several changes that took place in the last 20 years, one of the most important ones being the general and global shift from manufacturing to service business (Evans, 2003), increasing global competition and the rise and development of information and communication technology (ICT) (Davenport & Prusak, 1998). Information and knowledge today are often seen as the main determining factors of competitiveness of organisations (Evans, 2003). Modern organisations therefore have to ask themselves how to implement an effective knowledge management. The terms knowledge and knowledge management are difficult to define and differ in meaning according to the context. Therefore, in order to keep it simple, both terms should be seen, in this essay, in the context of an organisation's knowledge management system which is "a system that enhances organizational learning through facilitation of knowledge (both tacit and explicit) exchange and sharing" (Yahya & Goh, 2002, p. 458). This essay will deal with the link between knowledge management and human resource management (HRM) and in particular with the question how HRM can contribute to share tacit knowledge within an organisation.

This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we approach the beginning of the 21 st century, we are beginning to see the emer gence of knowledge management as a natural evolution of the focus and importance of quality in the 1980s and reengineering in the I 990s. Quality placed a huge em phasis on getting all employees to use their brainpower better. Reengineering em phasized the use of technology to streamline business processes and take out costs. With the lessons of quality and reengineering firmly embedded in our everyday op erations (continual cost containment and higher quality is a way of life), businesses are now turning their attention to growth. Growth is a common pursuit. Customers are calling for it. Financial markets are calling for it. Employees are asking for it because they want an exciting and stimu lating environment in which to work. If a business doesn't grow, it will eventually die because knowledge workers ofthe 21 st century won't want to work with or for a business that's not growing. Skilled workers have plenty of options to choose from as demand for knowledge workers escalates around the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2005 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Miscellaneous, grade: 2, University of Brighton, language: English, abstract: Globalization and fast technological innovations are changing the world markets and competition at enormous speed. The current years have shown that both production as well as employment are no longer limited to a specific geographic location. A more global workforce occurred partly caused by the desire of multinational companies to also benefit from professionals and engineers outside the domestic markets. Competition increased, supported by deregulation processes which decreased the domestic protection for many companies. With the fall of the former Soviet Union new political systems emerged. Almost all former communist states changed to capitalism opening new markets with millions of possible customers. All together, this new environment has lead to a higher degree of competition, consumer choices, complexity and uncertainty combined with many business failures and shorter product life cycles (Dessler 2002; Yaw, De brah & Smith 2000).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knowledge Management (KM) has attracted much attention as a key strategy to achieve organisational success and survival in today's unpredictable and highly competitive environment. And yet, unless people in organisations possess the learning capability to use knowledge creatively, a well developed knowledge management system cannot be directed at sustaining profitability. In the new economy, the achievement of a sustained competitive advantage depends on firm's capacity to develop and deploy its knowledge based resources. One way of ensuring competitive advantage is to develop a highly-skilled workforce equipped with the knowledge and expertise required to stay ahead in the marketplace. The topic of KM is still at a relatively young stage of development. There are many areas of debate within the literature concerning the management of knowledge. One of the main areas where understanding is still limited is the role of Human Resources Management (HRM). Within the search of the key factors that explain knowledge management effectiveness, this publication aims to advance a simultaneously conceptual and practical framework that links HRM and knowledge management.
