EXCUTIVE SUMMARYThis is a description of various aspects of knowledge environment, its importance and things thatcan be done to improve organizational knowledge of individuals in an organization. From a case study that was done at Manic Marketers, several positive things about the company come out. The organization came out clear during the interview about the knowledge environment inside the firm. The know-how, collaboration, documentation and sharing of knowledge was alleged to be good. However, the reality came out to be different when even the history of the organization couldn’t be traced. The mentor tried to introduce the new employee to the various systems and processes but failed to even introduce him to other staff members. Various forms of organizational knowledge such as the what, how and why they should know about various aspects. Some information about “who” they were supposed to know wasn’t adequately provided. There were also weaknesses in the social capital factors that were highlighted such as the staff members not being at ease when consulted, (Greene et al 2010). Organizations such as Manic marketers should develop and implement knowledge sharing strategies such training through hiring and motivating mentors and other employees to share knowledge. Impediments tosharing of knowledge that were identified include little know-how among the employees themselves and, lack of motivation and reinforcement to share knowledge. 2
