"There are many definitions of knowledge management. It has been described as "a systematic process for capturing and communicating knowledge people can use." Others have said it is "understanding what your knowledge assets are and how to profit from them." Or the flip side of that: "to obsolete what you know before others obsolete it." (Malhotra) "
- U.S. Department of Defense, Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller)

"We are observing diminishing credibility of information technologists. A key reason for this is an urgent need to understand how technologies, people and processes together combine to influence enterprise performance. Today's effective CIO doesn't deliver IT.

"Dr. Yogesh Malhotra, PhD, drawing upon numerous sources, proposes several theories as to how IT can be used to drive the change of organizations. As environments become more turbulent, organizations must adapt at the same rate to maintain its advantage. Among his theories are that the turbulent environments (in this case, business, but can translate to the turbulent military conflict environment) drive organizations to use IT for empowering workers at all levels, increasing span of control, and increasing lateral communications."

"The self-organizing capacity of dynamically adaptive systems is amazing. They tend to eliminate redundancy, minimize connections, and establish priorities--all without outside direction. When something is organized, we tend to believe that someone organized it, some outside influence. But that's not necessarily so. Self-organization is a process in which the organization of a system occurs spontaneously based on the action of its members, without this process being controlled by an external system. The richness of possible behavior increases rapidly with the number of interconnections and the level of feedback. (Malhotra) "
- U.S. Army War College Quarterly

"Dr. Malhotra argues in Business Process Redesign that reengineering is the notion of discontinuous thinking -- recognizing and breaking away from outdated rules and fundamental assumptions. He suggests that reengineering principles are organized around outcomes, and that people who use the output should perform the process. This links parallel activities instead of integrating results, and puts the decision point where the work is performed (Malhotra, 1996). Integrating the DPW processes further into the installation staff can achieve these outcomes. Seventy percent of Business Process Redesigns (BPR) fail because of business focus on cost-cutting and narrow technical approaches (Malhotra, 1996). The installation commanders should decide how DPWs could best serve the community. They should have the opportunity to focus on efficient output and not on restructuring to cut cost. Developing the Corps as the primary service provider narrows the commander's options and does not solve the problem, merely the symptoms. The ultimate success of BPR depends on the experience of people who execute it and how well they apply their creativity to redesigning the processes."

"These activities are often described as "knowledge management." See Knowledge Management, in the World Wide Web Virtual Library, edited by Yogesh Malhotra. (Accessed June 16, 1998)....The terms "marshalling" and "mobilization" are intended here to represent two major activities of knowledge management in U.S. national security decisionmaking. Although others may describe and classify basic knowledge-building activities differently, "knowledge management" has been accepted as an umbrella term. See. for example, TheWorld Wide Web Virtual Library on Knowledge Management, edited by Yogesh Malhotra, (Accessed June 16, 1998)..."

"Seventy percent of BPR projects fail. Three primary obstacles inhibit the success of reengineering projects: Lack of sustained management commitment and leadership -- It is critical that senior leadership not only support BPR but also be a vocal advocate. Unrealistic scope and expectations -- It is important to manage expectations. BPR is not a panacea that will cure all ills. Resistance to change -- The world is changing all the time and the pace of change continues to accelerate. It will continue to change whether we participate or not. We must change with it or be left behind. AIT provides AIS program managers the opportunity to completely reexamine and reengineer their entire business process, because it offers capabilities not previously available in terms of timeliness and accuracy of data capture. During the operational prototype, the Air Force provided an excellent example of a reengineered business process as a result of AIT. The Supply Asset Tracking System (SATS) is a front-end server that integrates AIT with the supply AIS, the Standard Base Supply System (SBSS). SATS uses linear bar codes for tracking and inventory purposes and smart cards for personal identification to verify receipt and establish personal accountability of property. (Malhotra) "

"According to Malhotra, KM ensures that right knowledge is applied at the right place and time and it is about doing the right thing instead of doing things right. Its application to R&D will avoid unnecessary duplication of research. It can help support both individual and organizational learning from past successes and failures while guiding future actions and changes."
- International Atomic Energy Agency

"The Knowledge Management (KM) area has become so diverse over the past ten years as researchers have begun to investigate not only the mechanics of knowledge creation and transfer but also of social and cultural issues that are of importance in understanding this topic. KM is the process of leveraging and utilizing the vast, untapped potential of both implied and documented knowledge to achieve optimal performance, both are equally important for improving performance. Knowledge Management enables businesses to exchange and optimize the knowledge and experience. "Knowledge Management caters for the critical issues of organisational adoption, survival and competence in face of increasingly discontinuous environmental change. Essentially, it embodies organizational processes that seek synergistic combination of data and information processing capacity of information technologies, and the creative and innovative capacity of human beings" (Dr. Yogesh Malhotra 1997)."

"In his latest book, Knowledge Management and Virtual Organisations, KM luminary, Dr. Yogesh Malhotra, offers some cautionary advice. He exposes three myths often associated with KM solutions. The first of these is that knowledge management technologies can deliver the right information to the right person at the right time. This assumes businesses will develop incrementally in stable markets. However as Malhotra says, "the new business model in the Information Age is marked by fundamental, not incremental change. Businesses can't plan long-term; instead, they must shift to a more flexible 'anticipation of surprise' model. Thus it is impossible to build a system that predicts who the right person at the right time even is, let alone what constitutes the right information."
- Microsoft Corporation

"All can be used to further the goal of keeping the channels of communication open to allow for the exchange of issues and ideas within an organization. According to BRINT Institute chairman and CKO Dr. Yogesh Malhotra, "The key issue is not about the latest information technologies, but whether those technologies are used within, and for facilitating, a culture of information sharing, relationship building and trust." With communication and trust, set within the solid framework of a component architecture, your business can harness that elusive ability to get the right information to the right people at the right time for the right business purposes."
- Cisco Systems, Inc.

"According to Yogesh Malhotra, Knowledge Management practitioner and web author, "Knowledge Management is a brand new field emerging at the confluence of organization theory, management strategy, and management information systems." Breaking apart this definition, Knowledge Management can be defined as an internal, corporate strategy. Knowledge Management can also stand alone as a separate, Information Technology program. Malhotra is right on target when he states that Knowledge Management is a brand new field. Knowledge Management began receiving airplay in 1996. At that time, Tom Davenport wrote in CIO Magazine that a chief knowledge officer "captures and leverages structured knowledge, with information technology as a key enabler." Expanding upon Malhotra and Davenport's definitions, Knowledge Management within NCR Corporation can be defined via a business objective (strategic), a method of Knowledge Management delivery (the management information system), and a role within the organization. NCR's objective is to create, capture, and disseminate knowledge."

"Institutionalization of 'best practices' by embedding them in information technology might facilitate efficient handling of routine, 'linear,' and predictable situations during stable or incrementally changing environments. However, when this change is discontinuous, there is a persistent need for continuous renewal of the basic premises underlying the 'best practices' stored in organizational knowledge bases. -- Yogesh Malhotra in Knowledge Management in Inquiring Organizations"
- Vice President, SAP, North America in SAP Portals ASUG Meeting

"Often used synonymously, the terms knowledge and information, are actually different. Information facilitates knowledge, and can exist without knowledge. Knowledge, however, cannot exist without information. To simplify the concept, Dr. Yogesh Malhotra, renowned scholar on Knowledge Management, defines "Knowledge" as potential for action that has an immediate link to performance. This definition suggests that a person's response or action, or contextual consideration for future action, based on information, is knowledge."
- VeriSign Inc.

"It is generally agreed that the greatest challenges to knowledge management initiatives are resistance to change in both an organization's information-sharing culture and the business processes that occur as a result. K.M. Malhotra defined the problem as follows: Culture is the most difficult component of KM to define, quantify, measure and influence. However, the success or failure of an effective KM program is almost solely dependant upon whether an organization's culture encourages or hinders sharing and transferring knowledge freely within the organization's structure. One thing is certain: an organization's cultural predisposition toward the free transfer of knowledge is largely reflective of the proactive stance demonstrated by the organization's leadership."

"Knowledge Management refers to the critical issues of organisational adaptation, survival and competence against discontinuous environmental change. Essentially it embodies organisational processes that seek synergistic combination of data and information processing capacity of information technologies, and the creative and innovative capacity of human beings.

"In the Committee's view, definitions that treat the area as a discipline rather than a mere collection of technologies best encapsulate what knowledge management means.

"It is therefore impossible to typify the roles of Knowledge Management workers other than the CKO, and indeed these roles themselves are in a constant state of change. Dr. Yogesh Malhotra defines this as follows: Given the need for autonomy in learning and decision making, such knowledge workers would also need to be comfortable with self-control and self-learning."
- Government of UK

"We are facing "permanent white-waters" which demands strategies for adaptation to uncertainty in contrast to the conventional emphasis on optimisation based on prediction (Malhotra 1999). To quote a decision-maker in a large multinational firm; "The future is moving so quickly that you can't anticipate it. We have put a tremendous emphasis on quick response instead of planning. We will continue to be surprised, but we won't be surprised that we are surprised. We will anticipate the surprise." (Malhotra 1999)."

"It is difficult, not to say impossible, to replace the significance of individual or collective face-to-face interactions in the sharing of tacit knowledge and articulating it as explicit in an organization, even if rapid development of interactive multimedia applications combining text, image and sound offers increasingly advanced communication potential. Virtual forms of working and work organization might at best supplement, but never totally replace, self-managing teams with close physical and social contacts, for instance, as a forum for learning. (Malhotra) "

"A key feature of knowledge management is the sharing of knowledge as opposed to simply the dissemination of information. Knowledge has a different quality to information. Knowledge includes human experience and the ability to make complex judgments based on past experience. Information is more about mere data whereas knowledge is 'potential for action'. (Malhotra)

"Knowledge management refers to the critical issues of organizational adaptation, survival and competence against discontinuous environmental change. Essentially it embodies organizational processes that seek synergistic combination of data and information processing capacity of information technologies, and the creative and innovative capacity of human beings," says Dr. Yogesh Malhotra, founding chairman and chief knowledge architect of the BRINT Institute, in an interview with Alistair Craven. Widely recognized as a knowledge management pioneer, Malhotra adds, "Knowledge management is more about the pragmatic and thoughtful application of any concept or definition, as it is not in the definition but in real world execution where opportunities and challenges lie. Any definition therefore must be understood within the specific context of expected performance outcomes and value propositions that answer the question 'Why' about relevance of KM.""

"Estes ativos do conhecimento aumentam com o uso e daí a importância de as empresas identificarem o que sabem e manterem todo o esforço para desenvolverem área de gestão do conhecimento.

"The focus of knowledge management is on 'doing the right thing' instead of doing things right, (Yogesh Malhotra, 2001). The emphasize is that that knowledge management provides framework within which the organization views all processes of the activities to sustain the business and/or ensuring the business survival. Within the army organization, there is no difference. The army needs to keep pace with the technology advancement preparing for the increasingly dynamic and unpredictable regional and world environment."

"Dr. Yogesh Malhotra, one of the experts and founder contributor in the development of concept of KM has defined the KM as under : "Knowledge Management caters to the critical issues of organizational adaptation, survival and competence in face of increasingly discontinuous environmental change. Essentially, it embodies organizational processes that seek synergistic combination of data and information processing capacity of information technologies, and the creative and innovative capacity of human beings". As it is clear from this definition that objective of Knowledge Management as a crucial management function is not only to survive under changing environment but also to make the organisation adaptable and competitive. The same is particularly applicable for Banks in India, since they are now operating under such a dynamic business environment."

"Dr. Yogesh Malhotra, the Founder and Chief Knowledge Architect of BRINT, and a well-known expert in the field of K-economy, opines: "The challenges facing us as we enter the 21st Century are formidable. Globalization, Information Technology and Shareholders' Values are transforming the world. To meet these challenges is to become a knowledge-creating or knowledge intensive organization"."
- Indian Banks' Association, India

"Knowledge Management has structural and functional basis in the IM (Information Management or IRM. The main difference is the high degree of dynamic activity involved in the KM system. To summarize in the words of Dr. Malhotra, (10) 'use of the information and control systems and compliance with pre-defined goals, objectives and best practices may not necessarily achieve long-term organizational competence. This is the world of 're-use,' 're-engineering', 're-cycling' etc, which challenges the assumptions underlying the 'accepted way of doing things.' This world needs the capability to understand the problems afresh given the changing environmental conditions. Knowledge management focuses on 'doing the right thing' instead of 'doing things right.'"

"Finally, all who are concerned with IT security issues should understand -- and appreciate -- the difference between information and knowledge. Information, writes Yogesh Malhotra, PhD, is embedded in a computer -- while knowledge is embedded in people. "Information generated by a computer is not a very rich carrier of human interpretation for potential action," he writes. "Computer are merely tools, however great their information-processing capabilities may be."

"Leadership Quote of the Week: The focus of knowledge management is on doing the right thing instead of doing things right... Yogesh Malhotra"
- Chartered Management Institute, UK

"Dr. Yogesh Malhotra, founder of the Brint Institute and a pioneer in knowledge management, posits that "the basic premise is that you can predict how and what you'll need to do and that IS can simplify this and do it efficiently". However, the new business model, he says, is marked by fundamental, not incremental, change and businesses can't plan long-term. Instead, they must shift to a more flexible "anticipation of surprise" model, making it impossible to build a system that can predict what is the right information to be delivered to the right person at the right time. This is not to say that information technology has been displaced from the knowledge management equation; its place has been preserved by a growing realisation among developers that software alone cannot automatically be seen as the solution."
- National President of the Australian Computer Society, Australia

"Yogesh Malhotra, founding chairman and chief knowledge officer for the BRINT Institute in Syracuse, New York, believes that the fundamental distinction between data and knowledge plays a major role in whether a system is designed for adaptation and quick response to change. "Dynamic and radically changing environments overwhelm the deterministic logic of a structured model, resulting in a 70 percent failure rate that has characterized implementations of knowledge management models" says Malhotra. Recounting his visit to a Silicon Valley hi-tech consulting firm, Malhotra attributes most failed corporate intranet initiatives to the above fallacy... Malhotra says that once routinized for efficiency and optimization, knowledge-harvesting processes may be delegated to others. However, supply managers need to be more proactively involved in knowledge-creation and knowledge-renewal processes..."
- Institute for Supply Management (ISM)

"Yogesh Malhotra, founding Chairman and Chief Knowledge Architect of the BRINT Institute states: "Knowledge management software is not a canned solution; "Knowledge management technologies cannot always deliver the right information to the right person at the right time; "Information technologies cannot store human intelligence and experience; "Knowledge management systems do not account for renewal of existing knowledge and creation of new knowledge; "Greater incentives are needed for workers to contribute quality content to KMS." Improper use of KMS databases can waste resources if an organization does not really know what knowledge assets it possesses and fails to capitalize on potential new initiatives."

"Similarly, Dr. Yogesh Malhotra, the famous "Knowledge Architect", wrote a cautionary article on "When Best [Practices] Becomes Worst", Momentum: the Quality Magazine of Australasia, Quality Society of Australasia, NSW (Australia, 2002). In fact, the conditions for producing and utilizing knowledge workers are not a question of the persons concerned merely acquiring subject-matter expertise, problem-solving competency and communication skills. It is essential to provide an environment where such persons can operate and flourish. In the same vein, one of Malhotra's recent books (monograph) for UNESCO discusses knowledge work taking place in "hyper turbulent organizational environments.""

"KM has become an increasingly important management discipline in recent years. Nevertheless, some say the phrase KM is unhelpful because 'knowledge is not a "thing" that can be "managed"1. They challenge the 'dominance and control model' that often underlies traditional views of knowledge and organisational management and development. They assert instead the notion that knowledge is largely cognitive, tacit and highly personal. They champion the fundamental role of people and the social interactive basis of knowledge sharing and creation. (Malhotra, Y..) "

The futuristic paradigm of Complex Adaptive Systems that can handle unprecedented change, uncertainty, and complexity continues to be the central theme of research and practice on which Global RISK Management Network was founded. It is also the central theme on which our early contributions to managerial practice have been written about by the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal among others. For instance, commenting about controls and regulation in complex and uncertain business environments, we observed the following in an invited interview published by the UK management press in 2005:

"Paradoxically, the economies of the bygone era had inculcated in most managers the models of scientific management based on deterministic control. However, in the new era of rapid pace of increasingly unpredictable change, such models of deterministic control would result in failures - particularly of large-scale systems. The challenge lies in trying to control what is uncontrollable. The emergence of the digital era has resulted in the 'perfect storm': managers trying to impose greater controls when such controls are either economically expensive to sustain and often even detrimental to the viability of the increasingly 'out-of-control' systems. The mechanistic thinking that served its purpose well during the industrial era seems to underlie many of the current failures of large scale global systems."
Rethinking Risk Management for the 'New Finance'

In contrast to other paradigms of finance, accounting, and economics that inform our understanding, our research and practice focus on understanding systemic risks, extreme events, and, related models of controls and compliance as applicable to information, systems, change, and related dynamics. Our focus on uncertainty, complexity, and, radical change and commensurate business performance within dynamic environments has informed worldwide managerial practices starting with the first multi-internet protocol WWW browser in beta 'building' the World Wide Web. It is in the context of radical discontinuous change events also known popularly as 'black swans' and 'extreme events' after the Global Financial Crisis wherein financial economics theory and research and related global practices need to make crucial advancements in risk management for the new finance. Such advancements will be in terms of overcoming their apparent inability in predicting ‘critical events’ such as the global financial crisis and prescribing strategies for anticipating inherently 'unpredictable' future crises of global financial systems.

Global RISK Management Networktm has its current focus on advancing worldwide risk management practices for global financial systems and capital markets. By 2005, our research focus on systemic failures and extreme events, recognized subsequently for its impact on actual practice by the AACSB International in 2008, had advanced to make us ponder about a possible forthcoming systemic failure of the global finance systems. The rest is history. For instance, in the same interview with the UK management press mentioned above, we had made the following observations:

"Interestingly, a review of best-selling literature on successful practices in one of the most technical, numbers driven, globally popular area of financial markets provides some perspective about managing information in most unpredictable, radically changing environments that defy prediction, pre-determination and control. Despite the recognized importance of fundamental, technical, structural, and human aspects of such practices, it is well recognized that in the final analysis human elements often determine the sustained success or failure in such environments. Interestingly, such environments that defy prediction and control are also characterized by a virtual absence of [pre-determined, pre-specified] rules as most rules are defined, applied and used through subjective interpretations by specific players in the game."

"On one hand, human aspects characterize the hallmark of the necessary focus and discipline required for sustained success in such highly information-intensive environments often characterized by unpredictable, radical and discontinuous changes. However, on the other hand, the same human aspects of hope and fear - regardless of prior history of experience and expertise - result in elimination of more than 90 percent of players within less than a year. Also, most successful practitioners in such high velocity and hyper-turbulent information-intensive environments recognize the insurmountable challenges posed by command and control stereotypes that characterize less information intensive jobs and professions of the industrial economy."

Radical Change, Extreme Events and Black Swans

Global RISK Management Network is the champion of business and technology management practices relevant to the brave new world of business, also described as a world of 'black swans' and 'extreme events' . In hindsight, Global RISK Management Network’s vision at the time of its founding about today's world unfolding decades later seems to have been prophetic as apparent from its original welcome statement:

"Global RISK Management Network is the champion of business and technology management practices relevant to the brave new world of business, also described as a world of radical discontinuous change. This world full of continuous surprises of unforeseen dimensions and change of uncharted scale is characterized by evolving models of work, workplaces, business enterprises, institutions, and other formal and informal organizations. This is the world in which the success formulas and best practices of yesterday could become failure traps of tomorrow and enterprises that were Goliaths of yesterday may become dinosaurs of tomorrow. Until this point, you may have read about this new world in some of the popular books on business transformation, change management, knowledge management and e-business. Welcome to the marketspace where this world is being charted, understood, defined and practiced... welcome to the new world of business!!"

Global RISK Management Network has served as the world's epicenter from which specific Business Technology, or "BizTech", as we called the integrated Business-Technology application focus that we pioneered, focus on operational risks, enterprise risks, and systemic risks was adopted by CxOs and governments across most countries of the world. Recognized for contributions to the advancement of global managerial practices on operational, enterprise, and systemic risk management, our focus has been squarely on advancing the obsolescent financial risk management paradigm since a few years preceding the Global Financial Crisis of 2008.

After the turn of the last century, this digital social enterprise has been probably most recognized for developing and disseminating worldwide its basic and applied view of non-deterministic uncertainty and risk management for detecting and pre-empting risk management failures for increasingly unpredictable and complex business environments. Global RISK Management Network was founded as BRINT Institute (BRINT is short for Business Research in Information and Technology, and based upon its original name, 'A Business Researcher's Interests' with registered trademark of @BRINT) originally conceived to bridge the gaps between business and technology, data and knowledge, and, theory and practice, "an ambitious undertaking", as reported by the Fortune cover story on the Knowledge Economy. For more than a decade, Global RISK Management Network has serviced the learning, networking, and professional growth needs of millions of users on average in any given month.

Instead of remaining stuck in the obsolescent paradigm of 'IT' "for managing 'data' and 'information'", this digital social enterprise represented a significant departure in the early 1990s from the prevailing textbook focus of most information and systems related academic views by its pragmatic and realistic choice to focus on managing what [we believe] really matters - change, uncertainty, and complexity. On the dawn of the Global Financial Crisis, our long-term perspective on radical discontinuous change events was brought into mainstream focus in terms of extreme events and ‘black swans’ more than a decade after we published original influential applied research and academic research on this subject. Related research published across multiple influential books, and, journal and conference papers underlying this paradigm was influenced by the thinking of founding philosophers of Information Systems and Operations Research such as Charles West Churchman (PhD advisor of Russell L. Ackoff), Russell L. Ackoff (who was coincidentally the PhD advisor of the PhD advisor of this research venture's founder), Jay W. Forrester, Herbert A. Simon, and, Norbert Wiener; economists and complexity theorists of self-adaptive complex systems at the Santa Fe Institute such as Brian Arthur, and John Holland (the father of genetic algorithms); and, strategists such as Steven Kerr, CLO and Vice President of leadership development at GE and subsequently CLO and Managing Director at Goldman Sachs. The original concept of the real-life instantiation of the forerunner of FinRM as “The Knowledge Creating Company” was influenced by the book of the same name by Ikujiro Nonaka.

Beyond Systems Failures from Uncertainty-Complexity

Before providing global leadership of worldwide executive practices on non-deterministic uncertainty and risk management, this venture laid the foundation of related risk disciplines spanning underlying practices of strategic risk management, systemic risk management, enterprise risk management, and operational risk management.

Through above digital risk management ventures, we pioneered a global vision of practices built upon new information, communication, computational, and numerical technologies in the post-WWW era being applied for not only tackling but pre-empting increasingly complex and uncertain business environments characterized by extreme events and black swans.

To advance beyond increasingly unpredictable colossal failures of global systems despite increasing sophistication of computational systems and mathematical models, we developed the foundation of non-deterministic uncertainty and risk management by 'anticipation of surprise' to guide worldwide practices. This foundation was based upon a new understanding of knowledge management as risk management for business environments characterized by radical discontinuous change events or extreme events.

In the aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis of 2008, such highly improbable events have been popularized as black swans. The above functional paradigm is most widely referenced in global research and practices given its focus on holistic and dynamic understanding about the people-process-technology relationships for systemic performance based upon systems thinking and systems dynamics. This paradigm squarely addresses the integration of people-process-technology aspects that are critical for realizing the success of computational systems and mathematical models in radically and unpredictably changing business environments. The foundation of the strategic and systemic risk management focus on non-deterministic uncertainty and risk management by 'anticipation of surprise' was reinforced through our creation of the world’s first content and community portals on both Knowledge Management and Business Technology Management including the world's first global virtual Digital Transformation community of practice (CoP) called The BizTech Network just after the advent of the World Wide Web.
