Adopting a knowledge outsourcing strategy

Significantly, many of these problems can be traced to the internal workings of the organization. For example, the absence of a learning culture and negative attitudes towards knowledge creation and reuse by employees reflect organizationally-engrained problems that are difficult to be uprooted. These problems could be mitigated if the dysfunctional internal workings of the organization can somehow be dissociated from the KM process. One possible solution is to outsource a part of the KM process to a thirdparty external to the organization.
