Developing Organizational Narratives: a New Dimension in Knowledge Management

Georg Schreyögg and Daniel Geiger

Chapter 4 in The Future of Knowledge Management, 2006, pp 82-98 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This chapter focuses on the recent strongly advocated idea to use stories and story-telling in knowledge management. It explores the nature of narrative knowledge as compared to other forms of knowledge, in particular discursive knowledge, and discusses its merits and shortcomings. A new concept more suited to the requirements of knowledge management is proffered, which aims at discussing and validating narrative knowledge.
