K-Economy
Knowledge will not kill convensational industries but diversify them
In the K- Economy we buy sell “congealed (solid) knowledge”- a lot of intellectual content in a physical slipcase( the cost of computer chip is incurred on R & D)
The success of K-Economy depends on new skills & new kinds of organisations & management
K-Company
Making business out of knowledge
Services industry
More Companies invest in information technology
The danger of information
No system support
Lack of manpower
Financial constraint
Challenges/Bariers
KM is expensive- expense on technology, implementing corporate culture, revitalizing employees reward culture
Seen therefore raise- skepticism among upper management
Incompatible combination on technology and people
Sharing knowledge : the new way of thinking
Knowledge markets not hierarchies
Organizational politics come into play when knowledge exists is used and is exchanged
Advantages of KM Practises
Those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it
Tacit knowledge is mobile
Knowledge integration is the engine of economic prosperity
Unpredictable markets necessitate ‘organized abandonment’
KM lets you lead the change so that change does not lead you
Cross-industry amalgamation is breeding complexity
