AboutScottGem Expertise I have been an IT professional for over 16 years. During that time I have accumulated a large store of knowledge and experience. This allows me to assist with a large variety of technology issues. My specialty is Database design primarily with MS Access. However, I can answer questions on many different IT related topics.
Experience I have worked in IT support for over 16 years. I have also helped people in cyberspace for a good portion of that time. I have been a volunteer staffer on Prodigy and AOL. I was the #2 ranked expert at AskMe.com (#1 in Technology) and am currently ranked at or near the top at Answerway.com and PointAsk.com.
I have a question and I'm not too sure if it's related to database but i'm just wondering what is knowledge and what is knowledge management and why are these important to today’s knowledge economy and to IT professionals.
Do you know of an example of where an organization has achieved value from a Knowledge management initiative
I would just like to get an opinion from you to learn more about knowledge.
Thanks again =)
Answer Knowledge mgmt is a fairly new term used to describe the total administration of what a company knows about it business. This knowledge includes data about employees, sales, production, etc. Knowledge workers are those who manage this info as opposed to manufacturing workers.
