The emergent relevance of knowledge and its management in an even more complex environment opens up the possibility to analyze, investigate and deepen our understanding on different aspects related to several functional areas in business management. Nowadays, firms that create new knowledge and apply it effectively and efficiently will be successful at creating competitive advantages. The choices of the firms in selecting and applying different knowledge process (such as knowledge sourcing, transferring and exploiting) as well as knowledge tools may be crucial. Thus, the role of knowledge as the key source of potential advantage for organizations and indeed whole economies is still a hot debate in the international landscape. This book develops insights for the management of knowledge in cross-functional business areas to originate an innovative approach to the classical Knowledge Management (KM) field. This book provides a fresh perspective on different knowledge related topics in an international landscape, highlighting the key role of knowledge and its management in business activities. Overall, the primary aim of this book is to extend our understandings on how KM can be helpful in several cross-functional management areas, such as strategic management, finance, HRM and innovation as well as in different business circumstances such as M&A, internationalization processes and risk managementSummary: Financial Derivatives and International RisksConclusion; Acknowledgments; References; 7 Identifying Sources and Practices for Knowledge Acquisition: A Systematic Literature Review; Introduction; Knowledge Management for Innovation; Knowledge Acquisition and Open Innovation; The Open Innovation Model; Internal Capacities for Knowledge Acquisition; Knowledge Acquisition Measurement; Research Methodology; Results; Conclusions; References; 8 The Risks Associated With Knowledge: Knowledge Risk Management (KRM); Introduction; Risk and Its Management; Risk Management ProcessSummary: Research Context and Design of the ResearchA Knowledge Management Approach in Developing Innovation Within Low-Tech SMEs: The Transcendental Dynamic Capability; TC and Innovation; Transcendental Conditions; Transcendental Synthesis; Epilogue; References; 4 The Center for European Trainees: An Instrument of Cross-Functional Knowledge Management for Internationalization of Vocational Education and Training; Introduction; The Center for European Trainees; Literature Review; Methodology; Case Study: Strengths and Weaknesses of CET; Strengths of CET; Weaknesses of CETSummary: Reviewing the Literature on Knowledge ManagementKnowledge Management Processes; Antecedents of Knowledge Management; Barriers to Knowledge Management; Outcomes of Knowledge Management; Discussion: Limitations, Future Research Directions and Conclusions; Limitations and Future Research Directions; Conclusions; References; 3 A Knowledge Management Approach in Developing Innovation Within Low-Tech SMEs: The Transcendental Dynamic Capability Concept; Introduction; Theoretical Background; The Dynamic Entrepreneurial Capabilities View; The Transcendental Dynamic Capability ConceptSummary: Stakeholder Integration-Implementing the TheoryFinal Remarks; Acknowledgments; References; 5 How University-Bound Students in Lebanon Search for Higher Education Institutions; Introduction; Literature Review; Research Methodology; Descriptive Analysis; Discussion and Conclusions; Practical Implications and Propositional Guidelines; Limitations and Future Research Directions; References; 6 The Management of Financial Risk Knowledge in the International Conditions; Introduction; Literature Review; Financial Risks, Knowledge Management and Financial Derivatives in the International ConditionsPPN: PPN: 1685650228Package identifier: Produktsigel: BSZ-4-NLEBK-KAUB | ZDB-4-NLEBK
