Knowledge and innovation play an increasingly vital role in
technological advances and the transformation of society. The
transformation of society form agrarian to industrial and now to
information and knowledge has largely been brought about as a result
of the accumulation and increasingly sophisticated deployment of
knowledge.
Knowledge management looks at a wide range of issues that involves
information management, knowledge acquisition, knowledge sharing,
organizational culture, organizational learning, communities of
practice, best practices, and learning organizations.
The emergence of the knowledge based economy, the threat of
globalization, and the intensification of competition have profound
implications for organizational growth, adaptability, sustainability
and survival. For many organizations and countries alike, innovation
and knowledge management are no longer luxury items, but rather
necessities and a means of sustaining economic development and
competitiveness.
The Innovation and Knowledge Management series focuses on issues
related to innovation and knowledge management, the role of knowledge
management practices in innovation and vice versa. This could be at
the level of organization or society, and will take place in diverse
cultural settings.
