How widespread is KM adoption in Singapore?
Which sectors are implementing projects, and what are they focused on?
How does KM in Singapore relate to Km in Europe and the United States?
Straits Knowledge has just completed a first-of-its-kind 38 page report covering a wide range of Singapore organizations, from local enterprises small and large, multinationals based in Singapore, the civil service and the education sector.
The study finds widespread belief in the importance of knowledge management, but less practical application than that would suggest. The government sector and GLCs are especially active, while foreign multinationals seem curiously inactive.
Knowledge Management in Singapore Organizations gives a unique overview of KM practices in Singapore, and comments on how it compares to KM in Europe and North America.
Key findings include:
- Nobody believed KM was not important, though some people were confused about how important it is
- Two thirds of Singapore organizations have a knowledge management strategy
- Knowledge management in Singapore is very process and content focused, not very people focused
- Some of the key barriers to KM are people-related barriers.
