Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Gang der Untersuchung: „Value Based Knowledge Strategies“ ist eine Diplomarbeit, die in Zusammenarbeit mit einem Partner von (Arthur) Andersen – nach Enron nun Member of Ernst & Young – entstanden ist. Das Ziel der Arbeit ist es zu erforschen, inwieweit Wissen den Wert eines Unternehmens steigert und um mögliche Strategien zu erarbeiten, damit immaterielles („intangible“) Wissen in explizites (wertsteigerndes) Wissen („intellectual property“) umgewandelt werden kann. Folgende These liegt der Arbeit zur Grunde: K = (I + P)s - Wissen (K) ist die Kombination aus Informationen (I) und Menschen (P), die über eine Datenbank (+) verbunden ist und durch den Austausch (s - „knowledge sharing“) einen wirtschaftlichen Mehrwert schafft. Gang der Untersuchung: Die Arbeit ist in drei Teile gegliedert: Literaturrecherche, Primärerhebung, Synthese und Konzeptentwicklung. In der Literaturrecherche werden die Mechanismen, der Beitrag und die Rolle von Wissen zur Steigerung des Unternehmenswertes erarbeitet: Welche Bedeutung und Einfluss hat Wissen? Wissen als Asset? Inwieweit bestimmen materielle und immatierielle Assets den Unternehmenswert (Marktkapitalisierung)? Wie wird man ein „Industry-Shaper“ und welche „Capabilities“ sind hierzu unerlässlich? In dem praktischen Teil wurden die Top 25 Unternehmen nach Marktkapitalisierung (lt. Financial Times vom April 2000) aus den USA, Deutschland, Europa, Japan und Asien mit einem Fragebogen kontaktiert. Der Einfluss von Wissen sollte in offenen Fragen von den ca. 130 kontaktierten Unternehmen beschrieben werden, z.B.: Inwieweit realisiert und steigert der Austausch von Wissen den Wert für das Unternehmen und für die Kunden? Welches Wissen wird im Unternehmen nicht ausreichend genutzt, um die Effizienz und Effektivität zu steigern? Was verhindert den Austausch von Wissen (grenzüberschreitend und funktionsübergreifend)? Welches Wissen fördert den Austausch und überwindet die Probleme wie Info-Egoismus? Die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse aus der Literaturrecherche und der praktischen Untersuchung wurden in einer Synthese verdichtet. Darauf aufbauend wurden Lösungsmöglichkeiten entwickelt. Das Konzept umfasst mögliche Strategien, welche die Unternehmenskultur, Führungsstil (Einführung von „T-shaped Management“) und Wissensmanagement beeinflussen.

Download or read book Sharing Expertise written by Mark S. Ackerman and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of knowledge management focuses on how organizations can most effectively store, manage, retrieve, and enlarge their intellectual properties. The repository view of knowledge management emphasizes the gathering, providing, and filtering of explicit knowledge. The information in a repository has the advantage of being easily transferable and reusable. But it is not easy to use decontextualized information, and users often need access to human experts. This book describes a more recent approach to knowledge management, which the authors call "expertise sharing." Expertise sharing emphasizes the human aspects -- cognitive, social, cultural, and organizational -- of knowledge management, in addition to information storage and retrieval. Rather than focusing on the management level of an organization, expertise sharing focuses on the self-organized activities of the organization's members. The book addresses the concerns of both researchers and practitioners, describing current literature and research as well as offering information on implementing systems. It consists of three parts: an introduction to knowledge sharing in large organizations; empirical studies of expertise sharing in different types of settings; and detailed descriptions of computer systems that can route queries, assemble people and work, and augment naturally occurring social networks within organizations.

Download or read book Value Based Software Engineering written by Stefan Biffl and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-02-23 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The IT community has always struggled with questions concerning the value of an organization’s investment in software and hardware. It is the goal of value-based software engineering (VBSE) to develop models and measures of value which are of use for managers, developers and users as they make tradeoff decisions between, for example, quality and cost or functionality and schedule – such decisions must be economically feasible and comprehensible to the stakeholders with differing value perspectives. VBSE has its roots in work on software engineering economics, pioneered by Barry Boehm in the early 1980s. However, the emergence of a wider scope that defines VBSE is more recent. VBSE extends the merely technical ISO software engineering definition with elements not only from economics, but also from cognitive science, finance, management science, behavioral sciences, and decision sciences, giving rise to a truly multi-disciplinary framework. Biffl and his co-editors invited leading researchers and structured their contributions into three parts, following an introduction into the area by Boehm himself. They first detail the foundations of VBSE, followed by a presentation of state-of-the-art methods and techniques. The third part demonstrates the benefits of VBSE through concrete examples and case studies. This book deviates from the more anecdotal style of many management-oriented software engineering books and so appeals particularly to all readers who are interested in solid foundations for high-level aspects of software engineering decision making, i.e., to product or project managers driven by economics and to software engineering researchers and students.

Download or read book Value Based Management in Government written by Douglas W. Webster and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-01-29 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides step-by-step guidance on implementing and using a value-based management system within the government Countless books on proposed management practices have been written and published over the past century. Some of these have focused on specific management practices for government. In more recent decades, the topics of strategic planning, performance management, cost management and risk management have been extensively covered. However, little has been offered as an approach to integrate these and numerous other management methods and practices in a manner that maximizes the delivery of value to the organization’s key stakeholders. A general management framework is presented in this book in a manner particularly applicable to government organizations. Value-Based Management in Government introduces a new, integrating framework for management practices that optimizes the balancing of results sought; resources supplied and allocated; and risks accepted. These considerations are all balanced for the purpose of delivering maximum stakeholder value. The book offers guidance on how strategic planning, performance management, cost/resource management, and risk management must all be integrated as part of a portfolio management framework across the organization. The book also discusses the role of information technology (IT) in providing data for insights and decision-making, and the importance of organizational change management to implement the needed organizational and behavioral changes. Beginning by explaining the concept of Value-Based Management for the public sector and government, the text goes on to explore topics such as the evolutionary stages of maturity of management accounting, the benefit of attributes (e.g., value-add versus nonvalue-add) in cost data, predictive planning with expense projections, risk management, and various performance measurements (e.g., key performance indicators [KPIs] ). This authoritative book: Discusses a framework for balancing and integrating cost, performance, and risk Explains IT systems integration issues related to activity-based cost management (ABC/M) Addresses why some ABC/M implementation projects fail to meet expectations Describes how quality management efforts can be measured in financial terms Explores the wider uses of predictive accounting (e.g., driver-based budgeting, what-if scenario analysis) Provides organizational change management insights and recommendations needed to achieve the required changes in management decision-making. Value-Based Management in Government is an important source of information for leaders, executives, managers, and employee teams working within or with government organizations.

Download or read book Knowledge Management Handbook written by Jay Liebowitz and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1999-02-25 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many organizations are now realizing that their competitive edge lies mostly in the brainpower-the intellectual capital-of their employees and management. To stay ahead of the pack, companies must leverage their knowledge, internally and externally. But it is not enough to develop lessons-learned databases. Experts now believe the current savior of organizations is knowledge management-the conceptualization, review, consolidation, and action phases of creating, securing, combining, coordinating, and retrieving knowledge-in short, the process of creating value from an organization's intangible assets. Jay Liebowitz, one of the leading knowledge management and expert systems authorities in the world, brings together over thirty articles contributed by the top researchers and practitioners to produce what seems destined to become the key reference for this emerging field. With it you will find: How to create a knowledge-sharing environment How senior executives can show tangible benefits using methods that value the intellectual capital-especially the "human capital" within the organization How knowledge management is not the same as information management How senior management commitment and involvement are essential to the success of a knowledge management system
Download or read book Knowledge Management and Risk Strategies written by Akira Ishikawa and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2007 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with knowledge management with an emphasis on knowledge risk, i.e., a general trend of knowledge value getting shorter and becoming temporary. The shortening of knowledge value lifespan will have a profound impact on companiesOCO employment policies, and employeesOCO strategies for gaining knowledge. How to manage knowledge selection, including personnel management, will be the key to survival for companies, when corporate competency shifts from stable business contacts to the quality of their offers, and when the value of knowledge, which is the foundation of products and services, is becoming more and more short-lived. Work-sharing and human resource derivatives are thus proposed as new concepts in order to deal with knowledge selection risk."
