Minitrack: Value, Success and Performance Measurements of
Knowledge,
Innovation and Entrepreneurial Systems
(

)
Part of the Track: Knowledge Innovation and Entrepreneurial
Systems
Minitrack description: Research into knowledge systems, knowledge
management (KM), organizational memories, and organizational
learning has
been affected by investigations such as implementation aspects,
system
developments, or knowledge flows during a number of years.
Therefore, a
high maturity level of KM research has been achieved. However,
organizational knowledge/KM initiatives are more and more faced
with budget
cuts and justification demands due to intense competition in
today’s
business environments. The influences of the rapid pace of
globalization
and of the ongoing liberalization of national and international
markets
lead to the emergence of increased pressure on existing companies.
Project
managers of knowledge/KM initiatives like Chief Knowledge Officers
need to
justify their budgets and, thus, are in need of qualitative and
quantitative evidence of the initiatives’ success. In addition,
ROI
calculations and traditional accounting approaches do not tell an
adequate
story when proposing knowledge-based initiatives.
This minitrack explores research into strategies, methodologies,
and
stories that relate to measuring this success. In addition, this
minitrack
will be used to explore the bodies of performance measurements
that define
the current state of research in measuring knowledge system, KM,
organizational memory, and organizational learning success.
Eventually,
another purpose of this minitrack is to present research on how to
value
knowledge-based initiatives.
Possible topics include:
- Frameworks and models for assessing knowledge systems, knowledge
management, and/or organizational memory systems
- Methodologies and processes for measuring knowledge systems,
knowledge
management and/or organizational memory success and performance
- Impact of knowledge use, knowledge management strategy,
organization,
systems, culture, and other issues on knowledge
management/organizational
memory success
- Organizational effectiveness/efficiency due to knowledge
management/organizational memory/organizational learning,
knowledge and
organizational memory use
- Knowledge systems, knowledge management, organizational memory,
and
organizational learning metrics
- Knowledge systems, knowledge management, organizational memory,
and
organizational learning success factors and key performance
indicators
- Benchmarking of knowledge systems/knowledge
management/organizational
memory initiatives
- Case studies of knowledge systems, knowledge management and
organizational memory success and performance measurements
- Measuring knowledge systems, knowledge management and/or
organizational
memory performance in global organizations and globally dispersed
communities
- Effectiveness and/or efficiency of knowledge systems/knowledge
management/organizational memory systems and/or innovation,
entrepreneurship and crowd systems
- Modeling and measuring the impact of social software on
knowledge
system/knowledge management performance
- Measuring the effects and value of AI and AR implementations
in/for
organizations
- Measuring the role and impact of diversity in knowledge
systems/knowledge
management/organizational memory systems
- Defining knowledge systems, knowledge management and
organizational
memory success
- Rigorous anecdotes and user stories and their theoretical basis
to
facilitate the value of knowledge-based initiatives
- Developing grounded theory approaches to valuing knowledge-based
initiatives
- Understanding knowledge-based initiatives’ activities and output
as
service offerings and exploring their productivity
- Usage, adoption and success of knowledge management methods
