Knowledge Management as an academic and business discipline has been
evolving over the past ten years. In 2005 most organisations that have
commenced the Knowledge Management journey are considering how best to build
and sustain capability.
Knowledge Management is multi-disciplinary. Consequently research must
recognise many dimensions in order to build our understanding of the issues
and opportunities that contribute to improved productivity and social
capital.
The University of Melbourne recognises the need to contribute to the
existing body of knowledge. Further, it supports efforts to collaborate with
business to focus the research activity and guide the development of
educational program.
The forthcoming Knowledge Management Seminar (refer to attachment) is going
to be held on Tuesday 7th June at the University of Melbourne, from 5:30 pm
to approx. 8:00 pm (light refreshments will be provided).
Venue: Executive
Lounge, Level 1, Alan Gilbert Building (corner of Grattan and Barry
Streets), and thereafter for the presentation in Theatre 2, Level 1, Alan
Gilbert Building. The guest speaker at this seminar will be Sibylla Noras, Telstra - Knowledge
Management.
