主要内容:

Knowledge is a critical resource in any business organisation. This resource is different from any other resource in its nature, characteristics and behaviour. The effective use of knowledge has a profound impact on organisational performance. This talk will introduce a well-established discipline of studies of information, knowledge and human communication which is semiotics. The issues and challenges in information management will be explored with some insight into information intensive businesses and organisations.
