Abstract

Knowledge Management (KM) has exposed multiple advantages in increasing profits by improving chances to pick up valuable business opportunities (Wong & Aspinwall, 2004) and share resources and competencies in very challenging and rapidly changing business environment. Most SMEs have no explicit policy targeted at strategic KM, and they tend to treat KM on an operational level (Beijerse, 2000; Hutchinson & Quintas, 2008). While KM has demonstrated its benefits SMEs want straightforward scheme of implementing KM initiatives. SMEs are curious to know on KM strategies and to adopt them in their firms productively. In addition, they look for uncomplicated methods to understand and implement KM policy. This chapter reveals that three major dimensions such as knowledge resources, processes and control strategies are more convenient to SMEs for implementation.
