The Evolution of Knowledge Management
Knowledge management (KM) has undergone significant transformation since its early days, evolving from a misunderstood concept to a more established field. Initially, during the mid-90s, many viewed KM solely as information management, leading to confusion about its purpose and applications. The speaker emphasizes the necessity for KM to gain corporate legitimacy akin to established functions like human resources, which have recognized bodies and clear career paths. There is a sense that despite advancements, KM still struggles to carve out a recognized identity and framework that includes standardized practices and accreditations.
