About the Book

The way an organization manages and disseminates its knowledge is key to informed business decision-making, effectiveness and competitive edge. Because knowledge management is not a one-size-fits-all method, you need a framework tailored to your organization and its priorities. The Knowledge Manager's Handbook takes you step by step through the processes needed to define and embed an effective knowledge management framework within your organization. Knowledge management experts Nick Milton and Patrick Lambe draw on their practical experience as consultants and project leaders to guide you through each stage of creating and implementing a knowledge management framework to answer your organization's specific needs. The framework takes into account the four essential aspects of knowledge management - people, processes, technologies and governance - and shows how each of these can be optimized to unlock the value of your organization's knowledge. With international case studies from organizations of all sizes and sectors, and user-friendly templates and checklists to help you implement effective knowledge management procedures, The Knowledge Manager's Handbook is the end to end guide to making a sustainable change in your organization's knowledge management culture.

The tips and real case studies provided throughout the book nicely illustrate the concepts presented. A must-have in your knowledge management book collection!" "If you are new to knowledge management, this will be the book to help you get started quickly and surely. If you are already an experienced knowledge manager, you'll be surprised how this book can help you check your blind spots and show you how to move forward." "This is the most comprehensive book I have ever read on the implementation of knowledge management. Whether you are just starting out or a seasoned professional, it is all here. Absolutely a first-rate reference."

"For knowledge practitioners, no other knowledge management book comes close. Milton and Lambe cover a comprehensive set of topics and challenges spanning the conception of knowledge management to post-implementation, as well as treatments on change management and sustainability, two of the hardest problems in any KM journey. Valuable in-depth case studies further enhance the value of this practitioner's bible."
