Knowledge Management (KM) is the leveraging of collective wisdom and experience to expedite responsiveness and innovation. – Carl Frappaolo, “Knowledge Management,” Capstone Publishing, 2006 (book)

Powerful? Yes. Simple? No.

KM is not a technology or an off the shelf solution, it’s  an ecosystem comprised of business strategy, information technology, corporate culture, and business processes aligned and coordinated in order to expedite collaboration, capture corporate know-how and translate intellectual capital into bottom-line profitability.

Although many have failed, many have also succeeded in leveraging KM to:

• Minimize the impact of “brain drain” from a graying workforce
• Increase collaboration and the re-use of intellectual property
• Decrease Time To Market (TTM)
• Increase responsiveness to customers
• Drive bottom-line profitability
