Abstract

Seeks to locate the role of trade unions in bargaining for vocational education and training (VET) within the context of workplace industrial relations. Drawing on the experiences and findings of a TUC project aimed at improving union awareness of training initiatives, argues that any clear distinction between distributive and integrative bargaining ignores the complexity, dynamics and variation found at different workplaces. Further suggests that both policy‐makers and government agencies have misplaced the vital role which trade unions offer in formulating both a coherent labour relations and ultimately a training strategy which can utilise employee skill formation. Also suggests that a review of the voluntary employer‐led system is long overdue.

Abstract

Purpose

Knowledge is the currency of the current economy, a vital organisational asset and a key to creating a sustainable competitive advantage. The consequent interest in knowledge management (KM) has spurred an exponential increase in publications covering a broad spectrum of diverse and overlapping research areas. The purpose of this paper is to provide a literature review and categorised analysis of the rapidly growing number of KM publications, and offer a comprehensive reference for new-comers embarking on research in the field with a particular focus on the area of knowledge measurement.

Design/methodology/approach

A total of 350 articles published in peer-reviewed journals over the last decade are carefully reviewed, analysed and categorised according to their specific subject matter in the KM context.

Findings

KM research tends to fall in one of five categories: Ontology of Knowledge and KM, Knowledge Management Systems, Role of Information Technology, Managerial and Social issues, and Knowledge Measurement. Despite the accumulation of extensive publication efforts in some areas, a series of disagreements and a theory-practice gap are revealed as challenging issues that need to be addressed.

Research limitations/implications

The scope of this study does not cover KM research in its entirety due to the vast nature of the research field.

Originality/value

This paper presents a new birds-eye view of the KM landscape through a novel taxonomy of KM research providing researchers with new insights for future applied research, and offers a comprehensive critical review of major knowledge measurement frameworks.

Abstract

In this conversation, Jon Low explores an array of issues that form a perspective and a set of principles for operating in our intangible asset, knowledge‐based economy. Low’s research has given him cutting‐edge insights as well as a basis for assessing intangibles that make up the bulk of wealth in the new economy. He discusses how decisions are based on non‐financial information, the major and recent change in the world’s wealth, the nine factors of value and how they work in different types of organizations, and trends that will be shaping the next phase of our era. Included are findings and trends derived from Low’s participation in the Brookings Institution’s study, Unseen Wealth.
