Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I found Dr. Tobin's book both useful in its content and very readable. Compared to many business books which often leave me thinking "So what is their point?," Dan Tobin gives clear examples, illuminating case studies, and practical suggestions. He is also clear regarding why he omitted the technology side of the equation - it would be outdated by the time the book came out. However, if you are interested in more of the technology side, you might want to check out Tom Kooulopolus' book Smart Companies, Smart Tools (Van Nostrand Reinhold). I especially liked Dan's description of how companies "jump started" their knowledge sharing process, as this seems to be THE major limiting factor, not the technology. As experts in the Knowledge Management field are recognizing, the big question is: How do you create a climate where people want to share knowledge? This book gives some practical suggestions and case studies of how organizations have done this. I strongly recommend checking out Dan's book as well as his earlier ones.

The aim of this book is to provide a game plan for actively bolstering the skills and knowledge needed to achieve business goals. Focusing on how knowledge is gained and shared throughout a knowledge network, the book explores how to create a positive learning environment that promotes the constant building and sharing of new information and new skills. New approaches to employee learning are outlined, which link training and development with job-related, bottom-line driven activities. The book uses real-world experiences and examples of companies that have put these ideas into practice.
