Synopsis

The aim of this book is to provide a game plan for actively bolstering the skills and knowledge needed to achieve business goals. Focusing on how knowledge is gained and shared throughout a knowledge network, the book explores how to create a positive learning environment that promotes the constant building and sharing of new information and new skills. New approaches to employee learning are outlined, which link training and development with job-related, bottom-line driven activities. The book uses real-world experiences and examples of companies that have put these ideas into practice.

About this title

From the Publisher

TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT MAGAZINE, January 1998
Rarely does a book come across my desk that has enthused me as much as THE KNOWLEDGE-ENABLED ORGANIZATION, which truly captures the spirit of a new era in employee learning and organizational transformation. Daniel Tobin challenges the assumptions and established rhetoric of business practices and organizational culture. He does that by suggesting that we replace traditional training methodology with a more holistic approach to learning. This new approach is a more accurate description of what is taking place in many successful, knowledge-driven organizations today.
