Knowledge Management
Knowledge is the recognition of patterns within data and information, and the understanding of the implications of these patterns.
Knowledge Management (KM) comprises a range of practices used in an organisation to identify, create, represent, distribute and enable adoption of insights and experiences. Such insights and experiences comprise knowledge, either embodied in individuals or embedded in organisational processes or practice (Wikipedia)
Adaptive Knowledge Management
Adaptive Knowledge Management is a Knowledge Management practice associated with the Knowledge Ecosystem concept, and is an extension of the Adaptive Management methodology. Where Adaptive Management is a structured process for decision making, Adaptive Knowledge Management experiments with that structure, particularly with the workshop and communication aspects.
