Managing Knowledge for Competitive Advantage • Challenge:Making product, customer, and operational information available • Topic: • Local markets(地方市場) • Decentralization and Integration(分權與整合) • The Human Connection(人與人之間的聯繫)
Local Markets • Danone’s strategy: decentralization • Close to customer • Get new product earlier • Nestle V.S Danone
The Human Connection • Instead of using traditional knowledge management that uses technology, uploading files, building databases, which was not the best way, Danone decided to look at behavioral patterns and more at interactions between people.
The Networking Attitude • In 2002 The Networking Attitude was launched as a new way of communication to enable and encourage staffs in different work sites to share knowledge and good practices in the enterprise.
MAKE IT YOURS • Marketplace • Message-in-a-bottle • T-shirts
FOLLOW-UP • WHO’S WHO • COMMUNITIES (NETWORKS)
Assessing Networking Activities • Because of the Networking Attitude,far more people know who to ask for helpnow. • Tangible results proved that people from different divisions could benefit from each other’s experiences.
Assessing Networking Activities • You need the relation and exchange between people. • At Danone we foster gamesbetween people during which they can exchange ideas. I see this as our competitive advantage.
