Knowledge Management comprises a range of practices used by organizations to identify, create, represent, and distribute knowledge for reuse, awareness and learning. An established discipline since 1995 with a body of university courses and both professional and academic journals dedicated to it. Knowledge Management is a multi-billion dollar world wide market.
One aspect of Knowledge Management, knowledge transfer, has always existed in one form or another. Examples include on-the-job peer discussions, apprenticeships, discussion forums, corporate libraries, professional training and mentoring programs.
The advent of Web 2.0 is adding a new dimension to knowledge work (i.e. user modeling {control} of knowledge transfer and management).The Babson Knowledge Blog: is a vehicle for getting knowledge management ideas into the world at large, without being subject to the tyranny of Harvard Business Review or Sloan Management Review editors or WKRC. This is a joint blog of Tom Davenport and Larry Prusak discussing knowledge work, knowledge management and productivity.
In 1999 The Cluetrain Manifesto authors, Rick Levine, Christopher Locke, Doc Searls, and David Weinberger, asserted the Internet enables people to have "human to human" conversations, will transform traditional business practices and call for all businesses to recognize a newly-connected marketplace. They forsaw the impact of the Internet on both markets (consumers) and organizations. Today both consumers and organisations are able establish a previously unavailable level of communication both within and between these two groups
The emergence of email groups, webboards, on-line people to people networks and Web 2 models has now enabled powerful global conversations. Relevant knowledge is exchanged with blinding speed. For businesses "Markets are Conversations" on the Inernet. Now anyone connected to the internet has access to and can particpate in a virtual marketplace and once again achieve such a level of communication between people. Anyone can bypass formal hierarchies. This can totaly rattle organizations and businesses. They often fear their loss of holding ‘command and control’ of knowledge management.
Harvard Business School Working Knowledge {knowledge management} "is a forum for innovation in business practice, offering readers a first look at cutting-edge thinking and the opportunity to both influence and use these concepts before they enter mainstream management practice.
