Why we should focus research on "knowledge manager"

Following several mails and feedbacks about my previous post on the publications in knowledge management, I have decided to investigate this matter a little bit deeper.

In the chart below, you can find the number of publications related to:
- Knowledge Management;
- Organizational Knowledge;
- Knowledge Manager.

Result is: 5 articles mentioning the key word "knowledge manager" compared to  almost 600 for "knowledge management". Quantitatively, there is a huge gap between the literature on "knowledge management" and the literature on "knowledge manager".

Conclusion: there is room for researchers on that matter !

Your point about the "knowledge manager" is excellent.
I was just getting at the point: who should take the role ?
My first view point is that knowledge relies on people, hence the HRM should take it.
My companion view is that the CEO should also step in, as KM should become a profit center.

knowledge management is all about sharing tacit knowledge NOT explicit one .. and some time wiki, sometime blog, some time discussion forum and sometime existing document indexing work well but there is no absolute solution.

Sounds like a great topic! I am planning to enroll in a PhD program in a couple of years.

Bonjour

Je suis une informatiste spécialisé lauréat de l'école des sciences de l'information à Rabat. Je songe à faire un cycle de doctorat en option "knowldge management" ou le management des connaissances. Les raisons qui m'ont poussé à choisir ce thème c'est d'abord son intérêt scientifique : Dans l'air de la mondialisation comment pourrons nous encore refuser à partager l'information et le savoir faire ? Une deuxième raison c'est le cas de l'administration marocaine qui a bénéficié du départ volontaire de ces cadres. Ce départ a réglé un côté financier du budget de l'Etat marocain, mais en contre partie nos administrations ont été vidées de leurs compétences. Ces compétences bien entendu n'ont pas songé à transférer et à communiquer leurs savoirs.
Je suis tout au début de ma recherche j'aimerai tant avoir une liste bibliographique sur les documents en France ou ailleurs qui touchent le sujet et merci infiniment.

Of course owning a collector? s car is not always fun and games. Most of the kit car insurance policies stipulate that your collector? s car can only be driven 2500 miles in a year. This is where the kit car insurance differs from the general automobile insurance companies. Some of these general insurance companies will extend the mileage to 5000 miles a year depending on your needs. If you have a car show that is 2500 miles for a return trip that would mean you would have no mileage left for the rest of the year. ...
