What is KM?

Brad Hoyt, KM News editor, defines knowledge management as follows:

  1. Knowledge management is about connecting people to people and people to information to create competitive advantage.
  2. The intersection of these connections is where creativity spawns innovation and thus establishes competitive advantage. I refer to this as connectedness, and is accomplished through what I have come to call Community-based Knowledge Management.
  3. Knowledge or know-how, is contextual and ranges in form from codified or codifiable (explicit knowledge) to experiential (tacit knowledge).
