- Abstract
• Whilst Knowledge Management (KM) is held to be cutting edge in leveraging competitive advantage in a putatively growing knowledge economy, substantively it is not a new leadership responsibility. • Much about KM pertains to current, technologically driven attempts to capture, store and retrieve highly explicit and routine repertoires of organizational value adding. Little is said about the more difficult organizational processes of learning and managing the transfer of such learning. • This paper audits such learning and transfer issues in light of long-known problems of capturing 'tacit' knowledge. It codifies and summarizes past attempts at KM and presents a less sanguine view as to current capacities in KM praxis, let alone expropriating professionalized skill bases.
