Much has already been written on Knowledge Management at a fairly theoretical level. This resource focuses, for the first time, on how to:- communicate the ideas behind Knowledge Management;- conduct a feasibility study within your organization;- prepare a plan for implementing Knowledge Management;- engage and involve everyone in the process;- start work on the changes to your processes, infrastructure and procedures that will help you build and use your corporate knowledge base.If you've been given the responsibility for this process, you will need answers to the 'what, where, why and how' of Knowledge Management that you can use to support your strategy and to communicate both up and down the organization. These are provided in Part I of the Toolkit.Building a successful Knowledge Management process involves changing the culture and systems within your organization, as well as people's behaviour. Part II takes you through the organizational and cultural issues you need to explore prior to developing a project plan. It also includes help on writing a business case and presents the different methods for auditing and locating knowledge within your organization.Finally, Part III contains checklists, activities and sessions that will enable you to crack some of the key issues such as the knowledge audit, the project plan, communication and training.The success of your Knowledge Management strategy at an individual, team and organizational level will depend on the ongoing involvement and commitment of everyone involved. This Toolkit doesn't offer any shortcuts in the process. However, it does offer a varied collection of facts, figures, techniques, checklists and management tools that will help you and your colleagues every step of the way.

Knowledge Management is a wide, critical and strategic issue for all the com- nies, from the SMEs to the most complex organizations. The key of competiti- ness is knowledge, because of the necessity of reactivity, flexibility, agility and innovation capacities. Knowledge is difficult to measure itself but what is visible, this is the way of improving products, technologies and enterprise organizations. During the last four years, based on the experience of most of the best experts around the World, CIRP (The International Academy for Production Engineering) has decided to prepare and structure a Network of Excellence (NoE) proposal. The European Community accepted to found the VRL-KCiP (Virtual Research La- ratory – Knowledge Community in Production). As its name indicates it, the aim of this NoE was really to build a «Knowledge Community in Production ». This was possible and realistic because the partners were representative of the most important universities in Europe and also because of strong partnerships with laboratories far from Europe (Japan, Australia, South Africa, USA, etc...). Based on such powerful partnership, the main issue was to help European manufacturing industry to define and structure the strategic knowledge in order to face the strategic worldwide challenges. Manufacturing in Europe currently has two essential aspects: 1. It has to be knowledge intensive given the European demands for high-tech products and services (e.g. electronics, medicines).
The Knowledge Translation Toolkit provides a thorough overview of what knowledge translation (KT) is and how to use it most effectively to bridge the "know-do" gap between research, policy, practice, and people. It presents the theories, tools, and strategies required to encourage and enable evidence-informed decision-making. This toolkit builds upon extensive research into the principles and skills of KT: its theory and literature, its evolution, strategies, and challenges. The book covers an array of crucial KT enablers--from context mapping to evaluative thinking--supported by practical examples, implementation guides, and references. Drawing from the experience of specialists in relevant disciplines around the world, The Knowledge Translation Toolkit aims to enhance the capacity and motivation of researchers to use KT and to use it well. The Tools in this book will help researchers ensure that their good science reaches more people, is more clearly understood, and is more likely to lead to positive action. In sum, their work becomes more useful, and therefore, more valuable.
