A systems thinking framework for knowledge management
نویسندگان
چکیده
Myriad frameworks have been developed for knowledge management. However, the field has been slow in formulating a generally accepted, comprehensive framework for knowledge management.

The distinguishing feature of this research is that it emphasizes placing knowledge management in a larger context of systems thinking so that the influencing factors on its success or failure can better be recognized and understood. q 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.
