Knowledge management as an academic discipline evolved from the thinking of experts such as Peter Drucker in the 1970s, Karl- Erik Sveiby in the late 1980s, and Nonaka and Takeuchi in the 1990s. This paper places Knowledge Management in a historical perspective, frames some of the key technologies and approaches to it, and highlights some of the new opportunities within Knowledge Management. If managers ignore the importance of strategies of knowledge management, their organization will not succeed.
