This paper identify and discuss barriers affecting knowledge management (KM) processes in the oil industry. Based on reviewing the literature on this topic, we used a conceptual model comprising the most important barriers, grouped in three categories–organizational, knowledge and people related–influencing four critical KM processes–creation, storage, share and application. Using factor analysis, we identified which barriers influence the most each of the KM process and what are the practical implications for companies operating in the oil industry. This study provides useful insights regarding knowledge processes barriers, enabling top executives to better cope with factors hindering successful implementation of KM initiatives.

Among the mainstream social networking applications, micro-blogging, in general, and Twitter, in particular, have gained increasing popularity. This paper reports the results of an exploratory study of the application of Twitter in the context of a large public library system. Specifically, this study has sampled, content analysed and categorised a select number of tweets created by a public library system in order to identify and document the ways in which Twitter can be used for various information services and knowledge management practices in public libraries. One of the main outcomes of this study is a tweet categorisation scheme that has a specific focus on the information services offered by public libraries.

Strategic Impact

Knowledge Management is among one of the buzzwords prevailing in the management circles. It is seen as a tool which can create a strategic impact. Theoretically knowledge management is seen to have the potential to influence many spheres of an organization. It is available in a variety of forms and to a large extent the hidden tacit knowledge can be codified and made explicit. It is believed that by sharing of knowledge, the organization will benefit in the long run. However the success of knowledge management lies in the role played by the organization, the developers and the users themselves. This paper makes an exploratory study about Knowledge Management in practice at ICICI (India) and tries to identify the critical success factors of Knowledge Management. A small survey was done among 31 employees of ICICI and based on their responses a factor analysis was carried out. This resulted in identification of the critical success factors. A personal observation of the system at work also makes attempt to understand whether Knowledge Management can fulfill some of the needs of the technical and professional workforce.Key words: Knowledge Management, India, ICICI, initiating, implementing, iacit, explicitThe Journal of Nepalese Business Studies Vol. V, No. 1, 2008, December Page: 37-49
