Editorial Reviews

Review

A few hours spent with this book will allow any reader to catch up with the present, if not the leading edge, academic thinking on the idea of the learning organisation. There are some great business stories in here, ICL, the Post Office and BA. ... the book's worth it for part 1 alone, especially for those looking for a context in which to place their e-learning strategy.
Peter Williams, E-Learning Age - January 2002

From the Publisher

Knowledge management and learning have come to the forefront as ways of building enduring competitive success. Whilst this recognition has gained widespread acceptance there still remains a relative paucity in the book that represents the subject issue in a practical yet rigorous manner. Many competing texts tackle the subject either theoretically or in a piecemeal way, focusing upon narrow perspectives. This text adopts a holistic perspective in addressing the wide range of issues that face organisations embarking on the knowledge management journey.The following case studies are among those included to show how various organisations have tackled this issue from a broad perspective:Rover CarsRank Xerox British AirwaysHewlett PackardFord MotorsICLElida Faberge
