The strategic management of intellectual capital and organizational knowledge
by Chun Wei Choo and Nick Bontis (2002)
About this book
Increasingly, the challenge of management is to create and supply knowledge in order to sustain organizational performance. However, few books on management strategy have been written using this concept as a foundation. This unique volume adopts a knowledge-based approach that will complement and perhaps supplant other perspectives. Editors Nick Bontis and Chun Wei Choo look at the literature through the lens of strategic management and from the vantage point of organizational science. The thirty readings have been carefully selected and commissioned to provide the best literature available--from articles newly written for this book and from existing publications.--Publisher description.

Strategic intelligence
Jay Liebowitz
Strategic intelligence (SI) has mostly been used in military settings, but its worth goes well beyond that limited role. It has become invaluable for improving any organization's strategic decision making process. The author of Strategic Intelligence: Business Intelligence, Competitive Intelligence, and Knowledge Management recognizes synergies among component pieces of strategic intelligence, and demonstrates how executives can best use this internal and external information toward making better decisions.
Facilitating reflective learning through mentoring and coaching
Anne Brockbank and Ian McGill
Definitions of the terms “coaching” and “mentoring” tend to be ambiguous and are often confusing for clients who need to assess the benefits of these activities. Facilitating Reflective Learning Through Mentoring and Coaching provides clarity by offering a theoretical framework presenting coaching and mentoring models together with examples of how they can be applied in practice. Robust theory is backed up by practical exercises, case studies, training workshop templates, learning partner handouts and tools for selecting prospective mentors. Important guidance is also given on sensitive areas such as the boundary between mentoring or coaching and therapy, and the need for codes of practice.
Managing crises before they happen
Ian I. Mitroff and Gus Anagnos
"In Managing Crises Before They Happen, Ian Mitroff reveals the specific features of corporate culture that enable crises to erupt and flourish. In this book, he probes the psyche of the organization, pointing out how a mindset of "it can't happen here" eventually leads to a breakdown of the entire system. He takes on the critical issue of truth-telling ... offers practical advice and philosophical insights ... and provides a framework for controlling and containing the damage." "Managing Crises Before They Happen makes it clear that crisis management is not a separate program, but an integral part of the entire management system. It promotes the kind of big picture thinking and practical knowledge you need to sidestep the pitfalls of an increasingly crisis-ridden environment."--Jacket.
