Description
This text bridges the powerful new knowledge management fields of innovation and organizational systems. Organizations of all kinds and sizes feverishly try to create new products and new ways of working more effectively - such knowledge creation is a major competitive advantage. However, such efforts are not sustainable or repeatable unless they are integrated into an extremely adaptive organizational structure. This book teaches knowledge managers and other professionals within an organization with a vested interest in knowledge creation how to build technical and organizational structures that foster and accelerate the generation of new ideas and that can "learn from" these breakthroughs. The author specifically teaches the pioneering discipline of autognomics and explains how readers can use autognomic tools and principles to design knowledge-creating systems.
