The Rightful Place of Science: Designing Knowledge

📖 The Scoop

Companies work extremely hard to make sure they have the right knowledge and can apply it profitably. And it?s not just private firms that rely on knowledge. Organizations of any size and complexity?whether a small nonprofit, large government agency, or global institution?depend on managing and using knowledge effectively in order to make decisions, guide strategic planning, and prepare for the future. But far too few organizations are fully aware and in control of the systems they use to produce, validate, communicate, and apply knowledge. The authors of this book examine how knowledge is constructed and used (or not used) to develop practical insights for improving organizations? knowledge systems. They provide organizations with the tools they need to design effective knowledge systems for informing critical business, policy, and community decisions.
