Knowledge Management in A Changing Society

IntroductionThe mutability is part of our lives, the universe changes all the time; We change all the time and, consequently, our society lives in constant transformation. The question, now, is that with the emergence of a new society, i.e the information and knowledge society, we have evolutions, transformations, changes very fast and this quickly brings us to have to think about how the knowledge generated by this society in so fast movements should be administered.We have entered the era of Globalization, the Internet, Facebook, the WhatsApp, or better, in the era of instant communication and real-time relationships on social networks. The problem here is not these tools because they are technologies, the problem here is in understanding how we can manage the knowledge that is processed in our society by means of these tools so fast and turning our ideas and ideals at all or, sometimes, in anything.Many blame the advancement of as the cause of the breakdown of our cultural paradigms, blame even the Giants television stations that carry the information into our homes, but we need to understand that there are technologies that cause us bad, on the contrary, are the technologies and technological advances that make a society, a people, a country stronger.Second Stair (1998): technology is the set of skills that allow the intervention of man in reality, that is, the is not bad or good, in fact, the is pure, or better, is the man who uses it, your way or manner, to apply it for good or for bad.The man developed the H-bomb and soon after radiotherapy machines, has developed a system of Geopositioning (GPS) in order to be able to put a missile accurately on the target and then uses this same GPS to find people, find places and even to guide these people to the places they want to go. The is to serve and transform society, but who the guide is the man through his knowledge. Is the man who uses his powerful transmission antennas to persuade a buyer to take your product home, or to say that a politician who doesn't do what he wants or benefits is bad.It is within this context that emerges this article which deals with the knowledge management in a changing society, because a society can leave even to exist if there is a concern with effective knowledge management of what is inside them.

Many may find this issue unlikely, but they forget that a simple push of a button firing an atomic missile toward a country might trigger a global conflict that will decline at the end of our days.If a world power can't manage your knowledge with respect to certain world facts, can adopt ignoble actions and end up shooting Atomic missile. Why knowledge management is so important and needs to receive strategic treatment to ensure that our society walk in the right direction and to preserve for a very long time.Companies, too, have to worry about the management and evaluation of the knowledge, because for a long time were used to impose their products to customers, and some time here, it's the client who dictates the rules and if the company does not develop strategic means in managing knowledge and evaluates them proactively can be crushed by their competitors. To adapt to this new scenario, companies must: determine their core competencies and focus them seeking to understand how the culture and the values they can keep their processes and practices and learn to make the behavior of the entire organization to be coherent and consistent ( Hammer and Champy, 1993).Developed countries invest heavily in technology, knowledge and innovation and for those investments don't go by down the drain they also invest in management, namely, on knowledge management. …
