Today,
knowledge and intellectual capital plays a principal role in
the delivery of
corporate performance. This importance is reflected in the
fact that companies,
without the force of any regulations, start to measure their
knowledge and
intellectual capital, they even produce and externally publish
intellectual
capital statements; accounting guidelines are being developed
and standards are
being questioned and reviewed; and governments are beginning
to measure the
intellectual capital of cities, regions, and countries.
Companies and investors
alike are trying to measure their intellectual capital and the
value of
knowledge. However, it seems as if the field has reached a
point of maturity
where we need to address issues around taxonomies and research
methodology. In
a recent special issue of a leading journal in the field (Marr
& Chatzkel,
2004) these issues were highlighted. The concept of knowledge
or intellectual
capital is often poorly defined and is addressed from multiple
disciplinary
perspectives which all give it slightly different meanings.
The
conference committee welcomes contributions on a wide range of
topics using a
range of scholarly approaches including theoretical and
empirical papers
employing qualitative, quantitative and critical methods.
