Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Knowledge Management in a Knut Shell!
Knowledge Management

In another review for Carl Frappaolo's "Knowledge Management" I read something along the lines of: it's short, it's sweet, and it's useful. I couldn't agree more!

For those new to the worlds of knowledge management Frappaolo's succinct introduction to the field really is an essential first step, whether you are interested in pursuing studies or work in knowledge management (KM) or if you are getting up to speed on this topic. Deceptively thin, "Knowledge ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very good introduction
I must admit to being a little suprised when I first received this book - it is "petite"! Was I going to get my money's worth I wondered?

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent reference
This book was an excellent resource to me. It got me well grounded in the principles and practices of knowledge management. It is well written, concise and thorough. i wish I had found it earlier, before I read alot of other less valuable treatises on knowledge management. Its a keeper.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Outstanding overview and reference
This book is an excellent primer for those who don't know anything about Knowledge Management and those who need a reference on the subject. It is insightful, well written and a very quick read. It is one of those little books of gold you trip over every once in a while. It is also compact and well suited for business travel.

Don't expect me to be selling this on Amazon any time soon...this book is a Keeper!

If you're interested in knowledge management (KM) start here. Frappaolo synthesizes in one concise and easy to read pocket book just about everything you need to know about KM. You could spend much more time reading about KM and walk away with far less. Frappaolo is not just an expert in the topic but an expert at getting across the essential elements of KM, without undue complexity. His examples and simple methods also ground the ideas in frameworks that you will be able to convey and use easily yourself. ... Read More
