The Knowledge-Creating Company by Ikujiro Nonaka

This book seeks an answer to the question: exactly what are the unique characteristics of Japanese firms in product development behaviour? The authors conclude that Japanese firms uniquely manage knowledge - they create it in the course of product development.
When the authors detail specific examples of knowledge creation, the reader's interest awakens* The Wall Street Journal *
Nonaka and Tekuchi demonstrate for the reader how it is possible to transfer tacit knowledge into explicit, which in turn is used to create new knowledge. * Knowledge Management, June 2000 *
Nonaka is indispensable. * Financial Times *
Nonaka and Takeuchi have written an academic study that summarises their theories and presents case studies illustrative to a western audience ... a guide to practitioners, based on materials for workshops and consultancy by the authors. * Financial Times *
Provides a perceptive and very relevant analysis of how Japanese companies go about creating new knowledge organizationally ... One of the most valuable new books I have covered ... for some time. * Long Range Planning *
The book, an esoteric mixture of philosophy and practical guidance, has been a business bestseller in the US. * Charles Leadbeater, Financial Times *
Ikujiro Nonaka and Hirotaka Takeuchi are both Professors of Management at the Institute of Business Research, Hitosubashi University.
