Overview: This paper investigates several issues regarding the nature, domain, conceptual foundations, and practical challenges of knowledge management and organizational learning. The paper first identifies and contrasts two fundamental philosophical orientations to knowledge management - the personal knowledge orientation and the organizational knowledge orientation - and illustrates the distinctive kinds of knowledge management practices that result from the two orientations. It then summarizes three essential organizational processes in knowledge management: maintaining learning loops in all organizational processes, systematically disseminating knowledge throughout an organization, and applying knowledge wherever it can be used in an organization.
