The 17th International Conference on Knowledge Management was held in the historic city of Potsdam, Germany. The conference was among the first post-pandemic face to face conferences, and the overall theme of the 17th edition of the ICKM conference rightly focused on “Knowledge, Uncertainty and Risks: From individual to global scale” at different levels of analysis and agency.

Knowledge is the central component of knowledge management (KM); it comes into existence, is managed, and has effects through the activities performed upon it and the results of those activities. Much of the foundational KM literature identifies and classifies these activities (Baskerville, Dulipovici, 2006; Becerra-Fernandez, 2005; Evans, Ali, 2013; Evans, Dalkir, Bidian, 2014; Girard, Girard, 2015; Pee, Kankanhalli, 2009; Mohajan, 2016; Sajeva, 2010). We propose an extension of these activity classifications.

It is understood that Social Innovation (SI) is at the service of society, building a positive social value. Collaborative governance favors the government, with characteristics for a better form of applicability of its theories. Therefore, this article aims to identify how collaborative governance and social innovation collaborate for better governance in the public sector.

Emerged in the early 1990’s, governance is a construct which enables to broaden the management focus to a more comprehensive view, assessing efficiency capacity from different perspectives, such as social and political. Among its applications, Corporate Governance is the most known. In the private sector, governance has become a mandatory practice for companies aiming at increasing their market value or maintaining it high, due to the credibility earned by companies with good governance practices. In the public sector governance is a major challenge, once it concerns itself with generating value for society, in addition to the need for transparency and credibility in the management of public affairs. In this context, the objective of this article is to identify the differences and similarities between Corporate Governance in Private Companies and Public Administration.

For handle with essential services, in the majority through public concessions, the rendering of services has been strongly influenced for the chaotic economic situation, the necessity of cares with the health of the employees and for governmental decisions that restrict some activities. Thus, risk management becomes an increasingly urgent need, as the impacts of wrong decisions can lead to huge losses. Starting from the hypothesis that the better risk management within organizations, the better the decision-making process will be, this article aims to present the importance of risk management for mitigation and contingency in the face of the impacts caused by the pandemic of COVID-19.

Knowledge Management Best Practices are established through leveraged Data Science Technique based on results found on published articles of reputed literature and both advertisements and news items of newspapers. Further, the recognition showed threats to the values of Higher Education such as the quality of courses. As such, a Postgraduate study is conducted to reveal a solution to those kinds of issues in Higher Education. Consequently, based on the proposal of literature to such issues in other contexts, existences of Knowledge Management Practices are revealed in the qualitative paradigm. Meanwhile, the present study questioned whether the confirmed Practices of the Postgraduate study are Best Practices of Higher Educational Institutes. Besides, the Oxford dictionary specifies that practice becomes Best Practice if “commercial or professional procedures that are accepted or prescribed as being correct or most effective”. Accordingly, confirmed practices of Higher Educational Institutes became Best Practices due to the practices that are accepted by the industry of the Postgraduate research through a qualitative paradigm and by the other industries of researches that those reputed publications concerned into the Postgraduate study. Besides, Knowledge Management is an emerging/ emerged era. As such, present research proposes resulting practices of the Postgraduate study as Based …

This paper aims to compile organizational innovation management indicators of papers that included some empirical step in the research and were published in the last 5 years (2015-2019). Based on PRISMA protocol, a systematic review was conducted and 356 indicators were extracted. They were categorized in 11 dimensions, following Dziallas & Blind (2019) previous literature research. The results make it possible to update the studies of innovation indicators at the organizational-level, filling an existing time gap in the research field. As for future research, we recommend the unification of similar indicators, the establishment of objective criteria for indicators categorization, and the development of an innovation indicator framework containing relevant indicators based on scholars’ and practitioners’ opinions, their description and measurement/evaluation methods.

Recent years have seen the development of quite a few measures of wisdom (e.g. Ardelt (2003); Glück (2017); Staudinger and Pasupathi (2003); Sternberg (1998); Webster (2003)). With a focus on information professionals working in the GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums) sector, this study is unique in the way it translated the quantitative measures used in previous study into a qualitative instrument that can allow wisdom aspects to be explored through interviews. Thus the purpose of this research was to investigate the key characteristics of wisdom for professionals working in the GLAM sector.

The ever-increasing market turbulence has turned today’s corporate landscape more competitive and complex. Particularly during the last two decades, the increased utilization of ICT systems and technologies globally transformed the services sector in terms of ease of business processes and improved client service delivery. However, in the current knowledge-based era, ICT-enabled systems and tools would only be meaningful if these are appropriately utilized by the knowledgeable and skilled workforce. However, leveraging these necessitates a knowledge-enabled work culture and recognizing that people are crucial to building a robust Intellectual Capital (IC) that is central to achieving long-term market competitiveness. IC comprising of intangible assets and knowledge resources is central to value creation for the firm as evident from the growth of the knowledge-based industries. Nevertheless, the true potential of IC for deriving value advantage for diverse organizational stakeholders has not been fully utilized. Hence, by conducting 12 face2face interviews with the senior executives within Australian Professional Service Firms (PSFs), this study offers renewed approach to IC valuation by introducing ‘Triple Value Bottom-line’ perspective in PSFs. The results highlight that the IC offers enormous potential towards deriving broader value outcomes for multiple organizational stakeholders.

While explicit knowledge can be to some extent separated from human brain and stored in organizational memory, tacit knowledge cannot be detached from the individuals who possess it, therefore its management cannot rely primarily on technologies. This calls for knowledge-worker centered approach. Individuals with different cognitive styles process information differently and use a variety of reasoning patterns for decision making and building their personal knowledge bases. The paper overviews the potential applications of the construct of cognitive style to managerial practice in knowledge intensive organizations. It also presents a model that can help visualize the relationships between different cognitive styles and knowledge management processes. The model also demonstrates how such cognitive dimensions manifest themselves at different stages of KM cycle.
