Making Knowledge Management Clickable: Knowledge Management Systems Strategy, Design, and Implementation 1st ed. 2022 Edition
Purchase options and add-ons
This book bridges the gap between knowledge management and technology. It embraces the complete lifecycle of knowledge, information, and data from how knowledge flows through an organization to how end users want to handle it and experience it. Whether your intent is to design and implement a single technology or a complete collection of KM systems, this book provides the foundations necessary for success. It will help you understand your organization’s needs and opportunities, strategize and prioritize features and functions, design with the end user in mind, and finally build a system that your users will embrace and which will realize meaningful business value for your organization.
The book is the culmination of the authors’ collective careers, a combined sixty years of experience doing exactly what is detailed in this book. Their guidance has been honed by their own successes and failures as well as many others they have researched in order to provide a comprehensive study on KM transformations and the technologies that help to enable them. They have successfully applied this knowledge as the founders and leaders of the world’s largest dedicated knowledge management consultancy, which runs these projects for many of the world’s most complex organizations. They are writing as practitioners directly to other practitioners with the intent to enable them to apply and benefit from their knowledge and experience.
“Compelling reading for KM practitioners looking to ensure their technology decisions support their business and organizational objectives.”
- Margot Brown, Director of Knowledge Management, World Bank Group

Editorial Reviews
Review
“This book … spans the crevasse between KM and IT and does so with considerable flair. … this is a very good overview of the importance of integrating KM and IT and should be on the desktop of all KM managers, especially in larger organisations with complex IT infrastructures. The experience of the authors is evident throughout and they write in an engaging style which makes for a very readable book.” (Martin White, intranetfocus.com, June 30, 2022)

You can read this book from cover to cover to get a holistic understanding of how to take a practical approach to KM, then depending on where you are in your KM journey, go back to targeted areas that will help you address the specific issues you’re struggling to resolve within your organization. The book help you take both a technical and non-technical approach to KM, as well as a long-term, strategic and near-term quick wins approach. The section on prioritization at the end of Chapter 3 is particularly helpful because a KM effort can quickly become overwhelming without a way to surface up the most critical needs that should be addressed.
All in all, this book is comprehensive in covering the KM topics that all organizations should be considering, regardless if they are mission-driven or are more focused on achieving business results. As the workplace shifts into a new way of working in a more hybrid, global manner, we are all in essence knowledge managers and this book is our guide to helping our organizations thrive and survive. Timely access to institutional knowledge is and will continue to be a competitive advantage and this book helps you to make that possible regardless of where you work.

First of all, I love the name. The best KM transformations are highly visible and involve people, process, and technology changes. I plan to use this with my clients in the future.
The book itself is very comprehensive. It describes every step of a KM Transformation from the initial strategy and the development of a business case to the implementation of the solutions. I really liked the list of products that are common in KM transformations, especially how they are best integrated together. I hear many of these products mentioned and I do not always know how they fit from a KM perspective. This book answers that question for me.
It is quite long, so I would not necessarily recommend sitting down and reading it cover to cover. Use the table of contents to find the topic you are most interested in and dive deep into that topic.
Overall, this is a great book for anyone who is working on or planning a KM transformation.
Pros: 1) The book is not theory, it is highly practical with how-to's and checklists and a complete benchmark. 2) It is clearly written from a position of authority and experience. 3) It covers technologies in detail and by name, which makes for a really good starting point for anyone doing technology considerations or selections.
Cons: 1) The authors clearly have a very specific way of approaching all of this. The book doesn't provide a lot of alternative theories or approaches. If you're looking for an academic review of different methodologies and the relative strengths and weaknesses of each, this is not the book for you. 2) It doesn't include much on the ISO standard for KM...not sure if this was on purpose or not.
Overall, this is the best new addition to the space I've seen in a while. Two thumbs up.
The book is very readable and approachable, while still covering a ton of really deep knowledge. I highly recommend it.
