Abstract: AbstractMultinational companies face a common problem: how to stimulate knowledge sharing and reuse for both individual competence development and business impact, particularly among employees in different parts of the world. A key to this process is to embed knowledge building, sharing, and reuse within both formal and informal learning. This presentation describes why and how this can work and gives an illustration of how traditional courses for professionals in a multinational oil company are being redesigned to focus on knowledge sharing and to also make use of knowledge management tools and processes.
