Foreword:

Today’s culture thrives on knowledge. Possessing knowledge gives advantages in making the right decisions or strategies to implement. The Internet distributes knowledge at split-second rates while laptops, tablets and smart phones bring knowledge to our fingertips in an instant. As the old adage says, “knowledge is power.”

Organisations have a wealth of knowledge accessible through the people they touch internally (employees) and externally (customers). Organisations that allow knowledge to go unmanaged may be giving their competitors the upper hand in the market. The organisation that is able to capture, store, and retrieve knowledge effectively is then capable of learning as an organisation. A learning organisation is one where employees are empowered to change and develop new methods, thoughts, and strategies that will advance the mission of their organisation.

Knowledge Management is the establishment of a system that captures knowledge purposefully for incorporation into business strategies, policies, and practices at all levels of the company. This course will teach participants how to initiate a knowledge management program at work. When it comes to knowledge management, any organisation is able to implement a strategy. Wherever there are humans working together for one goal, there is knowledge to be harvested, stored and dispensed as required.
