Personal KM (PKM)
PKM is not a new concept: in fact it has been
proposed and supported by many as a separate strain
of KM for more than 10 years now [7]. However
the move towards more and more personalized technology
offerings, and the uses that many of today’s
workforce have for such personalized technology
aids, has shone the spotlight more vigorously on
this area of KM than previously. The individual
knowledge worker-seeker-disseminator is now becoming
the norm rather than the exception in many
organizations.
Objectives – The focus of PKM is purely on the
individual’s knowledge needs and objectives: how
best to search for and find knowledge that allows
the individual to attain their personal goals, and meet
their business commitments.
