Harnessing Knowledge Through Socio-Technical Fusion

Overview Knowledge is becoming a major source of wealth in post-industrial organisations. Compared to information, it is more difficult to package and process, since much of it exists in diffuse social networks. Computers can augment knowledge processing, often in unanticipated ways. The combination of technological and social forces is a powerful source of organisational transformation and wealth generation. This paper illustrates how this combination has improved organisation effectiveness in several different areas of application. These include business process redesign through empowered work teams, product innovation through co-operative knowledge networking, flexible work practices enabled by redefining work, personal development through networked learning.
