Come off it!
Most of this lot have barely got past the first few pages of the Elise Workshop Manual and the FAQ
That's all the KM we need here thankyouverymuch!
Oh, and live access to Lawrence, Robin, Fergus, Shug, RichHumble, John Donaldson, N1ck Rossi, and too many others to mention [and sorry to those I've offended for leaving names off that list in my sheer ignorance...these are just the ones I actually remember helping me with my car, there will be many more!!]

People often confuse Knowledge Management with storage of information in a library. Thats why you often get organisations saying they have a knowledge management system in place and it is not much more than a electronic database full of files and directories.
KM should delve more into the socialology and human elements of learning and teaching. Its easy for someone to mind dump information into words - not so easy for them to describe how someone else would pick up that information and make it knowledge in their head.
This is based on the fact that Knowledge is personal and therefore someone wishing to adopt someone elses knowledge has to convert, decode and apply their own personalised experience before the information becomes knowledge.
Its mainly aimed at the 'learning organisation' who have identified that they are repeatedly failing on the same thing over and over again and wish to learn from experience - something which is hard to do in a large national or global company.
Knowledge Management is not my subject, but I am researching into the use of computer-aided Facilities Management and have been directed down the path of Knowledge MAnagement.
Like most academic management principles, they tend to overcomplicate processes that individuals often take for granted.
- bet you're glad you asked now!

Too true - Katie is in year one of the OU's Psychology degree and it's full of ghastly words that mean nothing and were invented simply to make it seem more of a sciencer055 wrote: Like most academic management principles, they tend to overcomplicate processes that individuals often take for granted.
Good luck with the application of computers - I suspect you are pissing up a tree though - they are really good at storage and indexing but not so good at being clever
