Corporate Epistemologies and KM (Presentation)

This presentation illustrates the relevance of competing epistemologies to mainstream conceptions of Knowledge Management in business, in an effort to show that all of them (i.e., the mainstream conceptions of KM), despite claims to the contrary, are in fact rooted in specific theories of truth, whether their practitioners know it or not. This presentation was further designed to put forward an alternative to such mainstream points of view, according to which KM can play a valuable role in mitigating corporate risk by holding organizational knowledge continuously open to criticism, including (if not especially) senior management's knowledge. This presentation was developed by Mark W. McElroy of Macroinnovation Associates, LLC and Joseph M. Firestone, Ph.D. of Executive Information Systems, Inc. in connection with their work at KMCI (www.kmci.org).
