Understanding how to manage the knowledge within an organization is the key to business success. When knowledge isn’t managed well, employees can become frustrated, customers can become angry, and productivity can suffer. All of these things can affect a business’ bottom line. This Knowledge Management course trains employees to use knowledge they already possess in order to help businesses perform at the next level, introducing participants to knowledge management tips, techniques, and proven processes.
This workshop explains the difference between explicit and tacit knowledge, identifies various theoretical models, explains how a properly implemented program can improve efficiency, describes the steps for deploying a new knowledge management program within an organization, and identifies the required components for implementing this type of framework within an organization.
