Many organizations are increasingly viewed as knowledge-based enterprises in which formal knowledge management is essential. Nowadays, KM is rapidly becoming an integral business activity for organizations as they realize that competitiveness pivots around the effective management of knowledge. KM promises much, but often delivers very little. There are no simple solutions to this challenge. This article starts by trying to define what KM is. It then identifies where the problems lie and suggests five steps to resolve those problems. KM has become an important tool in staying ahead in the competition between companies. In this article five different phases of the KM process are distinguished: acquiring knowledge, codifying knowledge, disseminating knowledge, developing knowledge and applying knowledge. The occurrence of KM problems is demonstrated in a case study in a knowledge-intensive company. Most of the problems in this case occur in the first three phases of the KM process. It is recommended that the company monitors on a regular basis, starting from its core competencies and its strategy, what essential knowledge their employees are lacking and encourages them to acquire it. Furthermore, the company should ensure that employees have time to codify their knowledge regularly and that adequate information systems are in place and kept up-to-date. The dissemination of knowledge can be improved by working in different teams, coupling junior with senior employees, and by the exchange of new knowledge between employees on a regular basis by encouraging the development of communities of practice and by the systematic creation of learning histories.Introduction河北科技师范学院 2013 届本科毕业论文外文翻译KM is an emerging management technique that is aimed at solving the current business challenges to increase efficiency and efficacy of core business processes while simultaneously incorporating continuous innovation. Some approaches to KM seem to view any manipulation of knowledge as KM. On this view, knowledge sharing, knowledge production, and knowledge transfer are KM. On this view, knowledge use is KM. On this view, KM is part of every business process. But, is KM really everything and anything having to do with knowledge and knowledge processing?• Knowledge use occurs whenever any agent makes a decision. It is part of every business process.• Knowledge processing is knowledge production and knowledge integration, two distinct knowledge processes constituting the Knowledge Life Cycle (KLC).• KM is knowledge process management, that is, the management of knowledge production, knowledge integration, the KLC, and their immediate outcomes.What is Knowledge?There is no consensus on the nature of knowledge. Nor has there ever been in the history of human thought.Here's a brief and far from comprehensive survey of definitions offered by writers and researchers in knowledge management. Knowledge is: “Justified true belief”: This is the venerable definition of many philosophers, especially of empiricists who believe knowledge claims can be justified by facts. It also is the definition adopted by Nonaka and Takeuchi. “Information in context”: Its import is that a knowledge claim is valid if it fits without contradiction and adds to the systematic coherence of a larger framework of knowledge. “Knowledge is understanding based on experience”: This is an idea that is central to modern pragmatism and its associated epistemology.“Knowledge is experience or information that can be communicated or shared”. “Knowledge, while made up of data and information, can be thought of as much greater understanding of a situation, relationships, causal phenomena, and the theories and rules (both explicit and implicit) that underlie a given domain or problem.” “Knowledge can be thought of as the body of understandings, generalizations, and abstractions that we carry with us on a permanent or semi-permanent basis and apply to interpret and manage the world around us. It will consider knowledge to be the collection of mental units of all kinds that provides us with understanding and insights.” “The most essential definition of knowledge is that it is composed of and grounded solely in potential acts. A definition offered in the same spirit is "knowledge is social acts," & 河北科技师范学院 2013 届本科毕业论文外文翻译"Knowledge is the capacity for effec。
