Rejecting the idea that there are ready-made solutions to the challenges of constructing and managing knowledge in organisations, this book addresses the changing nature of knowledge construction and what can be achieved through innovative research pratices. Key issues and debates include: working knowledge into the 21st century the highly contextualised nature of research at work post-modern perspectives on knowledge construction and practice and performance implications the impact of globalisation the influences of new technology, language, power, culture and gender upon the 'construction' of knowledge. Leading experts from North America, Japan, Britain and Australia illustrate both practice and theory issues, making this a valuable resource for researchers, teachers and students in the field of human resource management, policy-makers and all those concerned with continuing professional development.
