As competition intensifies in every market, it's not surprising that organizations should be seeking new ways of reducing overheads and improving the efficiency of their internal units.

Managing Knowledge: A Practical Web-Based Approach (1998) "The authors quickly evangelize the concept of the "information economy" and explain that for businesses to be competitive, it is imperative that they leverage institutional information and empower in-house decision making. In an easy-to-read style punctuated by encouraging quotes, the authors describe the process of profiling the way people inside and outside your organization work and structuring your overall plan around knowledge and process rather than just technology. This book is aimed at corporate environments and emphasizes the importance of managing personnel as well as information." Stephen W. Plain (Amazon) | Available for loan or purchase from Amazon Books |
