About the Book

Officially, KM is almost two decades old. Yet much has changed over the years in terms of global work contexts, organisational knowledge dynamics, and technology environments. If you're not keeping up-to-date with emerging trends and implementing systems and processes to support change, your organisation is at risk. Ark Groups report, Next Generation KM: Insights and Practice for Resilient Organisations examines the top ten emerging KM trends for business leaders to assess and implement for sustained success. Shaped by the increasing complexity of the global economy and demographic shifts, as well as pressures to become more innovative and pro-active, these trends include: Incorporating social media in enterprise KM; Using KM innovation to drive products, services, processes, and culture; Using knowledge networking to go beyond organisational boundaries to external partnerships; Cultivating the art of conversation to enable and nurture knowledge flows; Sense-making through group collaboration, organisational agility, and cultural narratives; Leveraging crowdsourcing and their respective tools, risks, and rewards; Incorporating new knowledge behaviours of the youth workforce through cross-generational KM; Changing KM research mindsets to dig deeper into issues of practice and theory of knowledge initiatives; Prioritising knowledge retention; and, The changing the role of the CKO for the 21st century. Each chapter and trend is supported by practical case studies, insights, and tips from a range of industry sectors and organisations, including: KM and social computing maturity at Unisys; Process and project approaches to external KM at Larsen & Toubro Hydrocarbon; Collaboration and innovation through Ideaken.com; KM community initiatives to facilitate collaborative learning and experiential knowledge sharing at eClerx; Crowdsourcing strategies at Deloitte, Goldcorp, and Kaggle; KM leadership at Mindtree; Cross-generational KM strategies at MAKE award winner Wipro; and, Knowledge retention at NASA, MITRE, ABB Switzerland, and Shell. Understand and implement emerging KM practices to future-proof your organisation.
