Reseña del libro "How Does Corporate Culture Influence the Effective Transfer of Knowledge? Taking the Case of the Consulting Industry (en Inglés)"
Inhaltsangabe: Abstract: The main question investigated in this European Research Project is whether corporate culture presents the biggest obstacle to knowledge management. To better answer this question two sub-questions are formulated: How does corporate culture influence the transfer of knowledge? and What are the key elements in a corporate culture that facilitate the process of knowledge transfer?
