The previous burst of paper media and network media have a debate of organizing knowledge management and personal knowledge management (PKM). This is a good thing, indicating that knowledge management has attracted everyone's attention in China. But in fact, you must don't have to have these two kinds of things to have a noisy thing to the water. What is the purpose of the purpose of knowledge management (including organizational knowledge management and personal knowledge management (PKM))? Regardless of how deep the KM said, it is a way to manage, its fundamental purpose is to improve efficiency and thus benefit (this benefit includes the benefits of substances and spiritual benefits, the following). Organize the implementation of knowledge management, enhance the knowledge management, encourage everyone to share, precipitate the knowledge of companies or enterprises, then use these knowledge to innovate, apply, so that the organization's IQ is improved, and finally enhance the competition of the organization in the market. Force, get more interests. Personal implementation of knowledge management, through personal understanding of the learning, effective management of knowledge, and then improving knowledge innovation, improve personal performance, and improving personal value in the workplace, giving more personal value. In the above description, there is no relationship involving organizational knowledge management and personal knowledge management (PKM), but we can see that there is no direct conflict relationship. For the purposes of KM and PKM, it does not discuss whether a conflict is discussed, and it is certainly different from the purpose itself. The author is also very clear, the former is in order to organize the competitiveness, the latter is to obtain more personal value, that is, the former's foothold is the organization's interest, the latter's foothold is personal interest. Go back, what is the relationship between organizational interests and personal interests in an organization? This problem may not be a few words to explain clear, but it is obvious that "these two have no direct conflict relationship" such an argument is not appropriate. Whether the conflict is exist, it may also be discussed in conjunction with the specific cultural environment of the organization. Different organizations have different cultures. Most companies require employees to put the company's interests in front of personal interests. This shows that when both are conflict, otherwise it will not have to rank. Individual organizations attach great importance to individual interests, but that is often a problem from the perspective of human resources, nor is the scope of our KM topics. Of course, when organizational interests and personal interests also have a photo, they react to KM and PKM, we can't only look at the side of the conflict. What is the relationship between the two? Do they really don't have water? In the debate, I feel that those who oppose personal knowledge management (PKM) have a common misunderstanding: personal knowledge management itself opposes sharing. It is based on this income understanding, and it is derived that PKM should not advocate the conclusions. Dare to ask these sir: Who said personal knowledge management opposes sharing? In fact, the BLOG (blog) that is very fire now appears as a tool shared as a personal knowledge management. Blog is indeed a topic worth careful, there are a lot of in-depth discussions, and there are many people who agree to be in favor, friends may wish to find some to see, quite inspired. I am a BLogger and PKM beginners and beneficiaries, and we will say that it is also based on certain environments. In the Internet's large environment, I don't want someone to consider the interests of the Internet, even if it is also a form of online morality, it is basically not involved in interest conflicts.
In this case, Blog is also good, PKM is also good, only involving personal interests, what is opposed? Personal Knowledge Management (PKM) is the concept of knowledge management, methodology is a scientific method for effective management of individual knowledge. Inheriting the PKM of the knowledge management concept and methodology, it is its meaning. But organizational knowledge management and personal knowledge management (PKM) have different things, this is what everyone sees, this is the reason for everyone's debate. Organization is more asking for knowledge, so that the competitiveness of the entire organization has reached its highest; and from the perspective of personal knowledge management (PKM), it can concentrate on improving their competitiveness without having to consider sharing. But these factors do not indicate that organizational knowledge management and personal knowledge management have an inevitable conflict, because individuals who have implemented knowledge management are more clear than those who do not implement personal knowledge management. One of the important knowledge management is that individuals must make full use of various channels, including information platforms, newspaper, and newspapers, and individuals who want to get what he wants in their own interpersonal circles. He must give Others provide value to others' recognition, that is, he must share your own knowledge, so knowledge sharing will become a habit of individuals in this process. Speaking of sharing, I think a simple hypothesis can make everyone understand the problem, you are a pkmer, then you must share some ideas and knowledge from others, and you have to exchange your exchange, now we have to consider Yes, your PKM's results are to say that your own things and others have formed new knowledge and skills, do you want to share? If so, then this PKM is not more similar to the organization's KM without a person? So where is the boundaries of PKM and KM? If not, is the PKM is also an obstacle to manufacturing sharing? Where is the so-called sharing of PKMER, is it only shared when you need to exchange? Further, organizations should be implemented, then the knowledge is from there? The answer is clear: it is from each individual that makes up the organization. According to the section of our "purpose", personal knowledge management can improve personal competitiveness, and if these personal competitive groups, if they manage naturally than those who do not have personal knowledge management Big. Is that personal knowledge management personally is not managed? If all employees do not have individual knowledge management knowledge, I don't know if I have effectively managed my knowledge. Is it possible to organize knowledge management in such an organization? The answer is obviously not. Employees who do not implement personal knowledge management may be larger, and the invisible knowledge is more difficult to excavate, and the knowledge of innovation can be more difficult. All issues that will encounter in knowledge management will come here. Another important issue is: Even if you have effective management of the entire organization, is these employees with the employees without personal knowledge management? If employees can effectively manage their knowledge, this will improve the competitiveness of employee individuals. Coupled with the implementation of effective organizational knowledge management within the organization, the competitiveness of the entire organization is naturally greater than the employees of the employees who do not have personal knowledge management, is this not a better thing? Chinese people are used to do a group of sheep, so that it is easy to manage.
Indeed such a person to manage, but a group of sheep's synergy and a group of lions? A group of lions will have contradictions, but there is no contradiction between a group of sheep? How to make a sheep become a lion, how to make a group of sheep into a group of lions, the former is personal knowledge management and the latter is organizing knowledge management! There is also a problem, not all sheep can turn into a lion, then why don't we introduce a lion and make your organization become a more powerful lion group? After a big discussion, they all fell in the last few words. You are hope to lead a group of sheep, or hope to lead a group of lions, maybe many people do not hesitate to choose a lion, but in reality, it is not so simple, everything is paying attention to Cheeper, you are not afraid that there is a powerful running to grab your position in the lion? All discussion in the previous environment is established in an environment where competition. But in a competitive environment, all the conclusions have to be placed on a discount, because this time, the decision to undergone is not simple Yes or NO, but a complex trade-off. How to improve your competitiveness, while combating the competitiveness of the opponent, from this point, KM is more complicated than PKM. Blog can exist in the Internet, some extent is also because there is a lot of direct interests between Blogger? On the problem of sheep and lion, I think there is an example that let us not want to face, why is India's software industry developed than our software industry? Picking out two people to single pick, I think every programmer in China is not afraid of those Indian blue collar, but why can't a group of lions can't make more good results than a group of sheep? This is no longer a pure PKM and KM problem, while rising to a universal management issue, even human problems, how can we get a conclusion before these issues cannot be successfully conclusive? The ability of the ability will be beneficial to the organization's KM? On this topic, I want to introduce this problem from the perspective of IQ and emotional business. The current meaning of KM is basically implemented within IQ, and the emotion is a hidden knowledge, and it is very hidden. The most difficult part of KM can say that there is no organization involving this level; PKM should be able to take into account both, emotional things, such as interpersonal relationship management, I am afraid that KM can not do it. So we can distinguish it, the IQ's things are handed over to the organization, and PKM is doing emotions, is there any conflict? The prospect may not know that knowledge management is in the country, and the investigation of the China Knowledge Management Center shows that more than 80% of people who can go online have not heard of the concept of knowledge management. What is the implementation of knowledge management? Therefore, personal knowledge management can be used as a breakthrough in domestic organization, if most people understand, understand, implement personal knowledge management, then organize knowledge management implementation can worship the schedule. Further, if organizations should implement knowledge management, there are many employees with understanding and experience of individual knowledge management, is it more prone to organizational knowledge management such as such companies? After all, personal knowledge management depends on the strong driving force of personal development, and it is relatively small, and it is easier to implement. Organizing knowledge management and personal knowledge management is not conflict, personal knowledge management can help organize knowledge management, and organize knowledge management can also help individual knowledge management. As mentioned earlier, PKM should find his position, KM is good, PKM is also a more conceptual, and domestic contact is not over.
