Week 7 - Lecture , Midterm Test

Lecture
In week 7, we learn about Knowledge Management Organizational Culture. 

Cultural Component in An Integrated KM Cycle :
















Typology of Cultures :

















What can we summarized from this chapter :
¢  Culture penetrates to the essence of an organization. It is almost analogous to concept of personality in relation to the individual. This acute sense of what an organization is—its mission, core values—seems to have become a necessary asset of the modern company.
¢  Organizational culture consists of the set of norms, routines, and unspoken rules of how things are done in that organization.
¢An organization’s culture may be in differing states of maturity, and these can be assessed using a variety of organizational and KM maturity models.
¢Knowledge cultures constantly evolve
¢The development of an effective knowledge community requires dedicated and ongoing support

Additional:
Madam Fatimah showed us a video of the workplace and environment of a Google workplace all around the world. It is quiet interesting. Here is the link in the youtube.

Tutorial
There is no tutorial class on Tuesday, 16 July 2013 (week 7). The tutorial section is being replaced by midterm test. We can refer to notes, books, web or any other reference during the test. The test period was 1 hour, we managed to complete it within the time period. Many of us cannot really score well on this test. However, there is one student in this group section who got full marks. Yeah we all wondered how did he answered all the questions perfectly without doing any mistake.
