The chapter reviews the definitions of knowledge and distinguishes it from data and information. Different perspectives of knowledge and their implications for knowledge management are also discussed.

The chapter also defines the basic types of knowledge, those that are tacit or explicit and those that relate to the individual or the organization in a collective form. Project knowledge is discussed in the context of construction, including barriers to knowledge management, the shortcomings of current practices, and how the industry is addressing the problems identified. Communication is key to effective knowledge management, and the chapter discusses the importance of knowledge sharing, including the main factors involved when individuals share knowledge, and knowledge communication and its barriers. Specifically, the central role of communication in organizations is emphasized as it is seen as the foundation for most organizational actions. Learning is discussed in two aspects – organizational learning and collaborative learning. The first aspect is dealt with in generic terms, while the second aspect relates mainly to construction projects. The requirements and problems of learning in construction projects is given focus. The chapter also explains the crucial link between knowledge management and innovation since the latter depends on the generation of new ideas or new knowledge that leads to the development of new products or organizational practices.

This article analyses the role of collaboration in the contribution of innovation to business performance. Moreover, the analysis considers business size as a key control variable to understand the moderating role of collaboration in innovation success. A survey administered to Spanish firms from industrial, building, agriculture, and trade-service sectors measured two levels of innovation, incremental and radical, and two dimensions of collaboration, channel and consulting advice. The findings show that the probability of success increases when firms use collaboration to support innovation efforts. In addition, small businesses take more advantage of channel collaboration, whereas large businesses rely more on consulting advice-based collaboration. These findings suggest that the convenience of different collaboration approaches depend on business size. Also small and large firms differ on the way they might get additional advantages from alternative ways of collaboration. Therefore, the main contribution is the understanding of how innovation success depends on the interaction between the collaboration approach and business size.

The profession of explainer is still pretty much undefined and underrated and the training of explainers is many times deemed to be a luxury. In the following pages we make the argument that three main factors contribute to this state of affairs and, at the same time, we try to show why the training of explainers should really be at the core of any science communication institution. These factors are: an erroneous perception of what a proper scientific training means for explainers; a lack of clear definition of the aptitudes and role of explainers required by institutions that are evolving and diversifying their missions; and an organizational model based on top-down practices of management and activity development which underappreciates the potential of the personnel working directly with the public.

The article is devoted to the definition of the value and role of personnel policy in ensuring the personnel security of the enterprise.

Based on the study of the personnel policy of a successful Russian company, JSC "Transneft Siberia", it is concluded that it can be defined as a tool for ensuring personnel security, while indicators with sum values that can be used as indicators of personnel security are identified. The result of the study is a convincing argument for defining personnel policy as a tool for ensuring personnel security, a description of the personnel policy of Transneft Siberia as a set of internal regulations and an indication of the threshold values of personnel security indicators established by this company with a critical assessment.

The purpose of this study is to shed light on how strategic fits between market orientation and the prospector strategy leads to higher performance of small businesses in Vietnam. This study draws from the contingency theory of organization to propose that strategic fits in small businesses represent by prospector strategy's mediating effects on the link between market orientation and these small businesses' performance. Data collected from 161 small businesses in Vietnam was examined. PLS-SEM was used to assess the research framework. The results reveal that the fit between market orientation and the prospector strategy, represented by the full mediating effects of this strategy, is essential to determine the performance improvement of small businesses in Vietnam. For the findings, this study provides some practical implications for small business owners in Vietnam. This study also contributes to the strategic management literature by providing empirical evidence, which suggests the strategic fits between prospector strategy and market orientation induces performance. This study also overcomes the limitations relating to the proposals of the analytic framework to assess strategic fits. Lastly, this study extends to strategic management literature by examining the role of strategic fit in small businesses' contexts.
