Knowledge Networks: Innovation Through Communities of Practice [PDF ebook] 

Knowledge Networks: Innovations Through Communities of Practice draws on the experience of people who have worked with Co Ps in the real world and presents their combined wisdom in a form that is accessible to a wide audience. Co Ps are examined from a practical, rather than a purely academic point of view. The book also examines the benefits that Co Ps can bring to an organization, provides a number of case studies, lessons learned and sets of guidelines. It also looks at virtual Co Ps and to the future by asking ‘what next?’ This book is a resource for all people who work with Co Ps – both in academia and in the real world.
