A Research Agenda for Knowledge Management and Analytics

Elgar Research Agendas

Edited by Jay Liebowitz, Visiting Professor at Seton Hall University and the former Distinguished Chair of Applied Business and Finance, Harrisburg University of Science and Technology, US

Leveraging the knowledge gained from Knowledge Management and from the growing fields of Analytics and Artificial Intelligence (AI), this Research Agenda highlights the research gaps, issues, applications, challenges and opportunities related to Knowledge Management (KM). Exploring synergies between KM and emerging technologies, leading international scholars and practitioners examine KM from a multidisciplinary perspective, demonstrating the ways in which knowledge sharing worldwide can be enhanced in order to better society and improve organisational performance.

‘Knowledge Management and analytics originate from different viewpoints. One focuses on people and organizations knowing (or not knowing); the other on people and organizations doing (or hoping to do). As there is little point in knowing without doing, let alone doing without knowing, the potential for synergy is tremendous. This book identifies the variety of directions in which analytics might be integrated into knowledge management to give an even more powerful approach for coping with the challenges of uncertain times.’
