Planning in Knowledge Management
PLANNING IN KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT
DEFINITIONS:
1.PLANNING:
Planning is a process which involves the determination of future course of action, i.e. why an action, how to take an action, and when to take action are main subjects of planning. So planning is actually a future thinking for achieving goals.
2.KNOWLE DGE MANAGEMENT: Knowledge management is a discipline that promotes an integrated approach to identifying, capturing, evaluating, retrieving, and sharing all of an enterprise's information assets. These assets may include databases, documents, policies, procedures, and previously un-captured expertise and experience in individual workers
The 4 steps of Planning for Knowledge Management:
1- Knowledge generation:
Organizations acquires knowledge in a variety of forms. knowledge generation can be categorized into the following five methods:
1-Acquisition: Buy out organizations or hire individuals who possess the requisite knowledge. This is a rather nebulous approach, because it's nearly impossible to establish a value for knowledge. In the case of an organizational buy-out, some of the most critical knowledge may not transfer with the sale.
2-Dedicated resources: Establish units or groups to generate knowledge, such as research and development departments.
3-Fusion: Bring together people with different knowledge and experience to work on a problem or project and arrive at a solution. 4-Adaptation: Change is often hastened by a crisis. Some organizations create artificial crises to fuel innovation. The most adaptive resources are employees who can acquire new knowledge and skills.
5-Knowledge networking : Informal, self-organizing networks within organizations share expertise and solve problems together. For instance, new technologies may be adopted by initial users and then passed along the network.
So Without documentation either on paper, electronic, or magnetic, the knowledge created may quickly dissipate and be lost.
