Knowledge management is the deliberate and
systematic coordination of an organization’s people,
technology, processes, and organizational structure in
order to add value through reuse and innovation. This is
achieved through the promotion of creating, sharing, and
applying knowledge as well as through the feeding of
valuable lessons learned and best practices into corporate
memory in order to foster continued organizational
learning.
