Knowledge Transfer
Knowledge Transfer in the fields of Organizational development and organizational learning, is the practical problem of getting a packet of knowledge from one part of the organization to another (or all other) parts of the organization. It is considered to be more than just a communications problem. If it were merely that, then a memorandum, an e-mail or a meeting would accomplish the knowledge transfer. Knowledge transfer is more complex because (1) knowledge resides in organizational members, tools, tasks, and their sub networks (Argote & Ingram 2000) and (2) much knowledge in organizations is tacit or hard to articulate (Nonaka & Takeuchi 1995).
Argote & Ingram (1999) define knowledge transfer as "the process through which one unit (e.g., group, department, or division) is affected by the experience of another" (p 151). They further point out the transfer of organizational knowledge (i.e., routine or best practices) can be observed through changes in the knowledge or performance of recipient units. The transfer of organizational knowledge, such as best practices, can be quite difficult to achieve (Szulanski 1996). |

Three related concepts are "knowledge utilization," "research utilization" and "implementation," which are used in the health sciences to describe the process of bringing a new idea, practice or technology into consistent and appropriate use in a clinical setting (Greenhalgh et al 2004). The study of knowledge utilization / implementation (KU/I) is a direct outgrowth of the movement toward evidence-based medicine and research concluding that health care practices with demonstrated efficacy are not consistently used in practice settings.

Strategic
Thinking for the New Economy
From
the acclaimed MIT Sloan Management Review comes this
compendium of cutting-edge thinking about corporate
strategy. Focusing on strategic imperatives of the
new economy, leading thinkers in the field present
their views in four general areas: strategy and value
creation; flexibility in a volatile world; strategy
making in uncertain times; and strategies for growth
in fast-paced markets. Strategic Thinking for the
New Economy shows that designing a successful strategy
is a never-ending quest - and that effective strategic
thinking is a process of continuously asking questions
and thinking through issues in a creative way. Included
among the book's many expert contributor are Christopher
A. Bartlett, Henry Mintzberg, Richard T. Pascale
and C. K. Prahalad.
