Synopsis

The increasing dynamic nature of competitive environments has made improvement of organizational learning and more effective use of knowledge a central concern of strategic management. This text develops a framework of essential elements for the strategic management of learning and knowledge. It investigates the organizational contexts in which learning takes place and the key dynamics in a firm's processes for developing a superior ability to learn. Development of this area leads to the organization becoming more effective in leveraging knowledge to greatest strategic benefit. The book examines relationships between firms which enable the creation and application of new knowledge, and it suggests new approaches to categorizing and managing strategically important knowledge in both cooperative and competitive interactions between organizations. It should be of interest to CEOs, senior managers and MBA Students.

Strategic Learning and Knowledge Management Edited by Ron Sanchez University of Western Australia and Aimé Heene University of Gent, Belgium. Published in association with the Strategic Management Society, The Wiley Strategic Management Series aims to illustrate the ‘best in global strategic management’ for academics, business practitioners and consultants.

• Investigates organizational learning and knowledge management in leading companies.
• Examines learning and knowledge management in several industry contexts, including high–tech and software, but also in more traditional industries.
• Explores the role of learning and knowledge management in strategic management.
