, Introduction
In today's fast-paced world, knowledge management plays a critical role in the success
of organizations. The ability to effectively create, store, share, and apply knowledge
helps businesses and institutions remain competitive and innovative. This is especially
important in knowledge-intensive environments such as academic libraries, corporate
organizations, and learning institutions. The rapid advancements brought by the Fourth
Industrial Revolution (4IR) and globalization have further highlighted the need for
organizations to integrate modern technologies into their knowledge management
strategies.
This document explores various aspects of knowledge management, including the
assessment of existing practices, the role of technology in enhancing knowledge-
sharing processes, and the importance of establishing efficient information management

challenges faced in fostering a culture of continuous knowledge sharing. By
understanding these key concepts, organizations can improve their efficiency, decision-
making, and overall performance.
