520 |a "Illustrated by the experience of the World Bank, this book explains how knowledge management, traditionally viewed as being about information systems and processes, can play a fundamental corporate role by creating a competitive edge for organizations, increasing team performance, and fostering effective, large-scale organizational change. Rich and powerful stories, told by economic development practitioners and knowledge management specialists throughout the World Bank, describe the strategies, instruments, tools, and processes at the core of one of the most important and radical reorganizations of the world's premier international development institution. Going far beyond other knowledge management (KM) titles, this book: shows how KM can be a source of competitive advantage and team performance, rather than a back-room support function; focuses on the role of the 'software' of KM, most notably the use of communities, culture, and collaboration across internal silos to create value; and demonstrates the role that KM can play in fostering innovation, and development of new business lines and strategies by global teams in diverse locations. Written not only for KM professionals, but also for C-Suite executives and middle managers who will see the benefits of bringing KM to the core of organizational performance and competitive advantage, the book provides practical examples that can be replicated in other large global knowledge, financing, and development institutions and that will be relevant for public, private, and non-profit organizations"--  |c Provided by publisher.
