Knowledge Management: A Learning Organization Model ZELJKO PANIAN

Abstract:- Information, i.e. the mere accumulation of data, is, by itself, rather meaningless unless it can be collected, well-structured, organized, and made available as knowledge. The effective use of knowledge is an important ingredient in all successful organizations, no matter what business they may be in or what services they may provide. To build and use knowledge effectively, what is needed is an organization that encourages the development of knowledge base and sharing of insights – a learning organization. A model of learning organization is presented, consisting of four cells: goals and values, motivation and empowerment, teamwork and collaboration, and feedback and learning. Key-Words:- knowledge management, learning organization, motivation, empowerment, collaboration
