IIMA - Being Ethical : Ethics As the Foundation of Business

About this book

The rise of the knowledge management (KM) executive-a creative manager who aligns a firm's knowledge base with its corporate objectives- is a remarkable new phenomenon. Mastering Knowledge Management investigates the role of knowledge centres and what makes KM a distinctive managerial function. Recognizing that the workers themselves are the ultimate resource in knowledge-intensive companies, the book also analyses the socio-cultural issues around the sharing and management of knowledge, and the vital link between employee motivation and the smooth operation of processes. Amply illustrated with the experiences of global multinationals and Indian managers, this book provides a fascinating insight into a revolutionary new way of doing business. MR Dixit is Professor of Business Policy at IIM Ahmedabad. A specialist in strategic management, he has headed numerous consulting assignments for public and private sector enterprises.
