Knowledge Workers in the New Environment (4): The Knowledge Strategist

September 14, 2011 By Guy St. Clair

The third type of knowledge professional I’ve identified is the organizational or corporate knowledge strategist, the employee whose work is that generally thought of as the management of knowledge services. With knowledge services usually defined –  as noted in earlier posts on this subject – as the convergence of information management, KM, and strategic learning, or, perhaps better …
