Chapter 2 Spiritual Knowledge Management: Managing the Learning Process Towards the Best Version of the Self
Year: 2024
Type: book-chapter
Abstract: The field of knowledge management (KM) has undergone significant changes, and it seems time to come up with new ideas to redefine the future role of KM research and practice in a changing and increasingly dynamic world. This chapter outlines one such new idea by proposing the concept of spiritual knowledge management. There is strong empirical evidence that purpose, spirituality and self are more important than ever for individuals and organizations. At the same time, many authors from very different fields come to the same conclusion: the goal of a fulfilling and successful life and work is to move from the current version of yourself to the best version. On this basis, this chapter aims to define and conceptualize the concept of spiritual knowledge management. It will be argued that the basic process of spiritual knowledge management is to enable, guide and organize a process of deep learning to develop the best version of a person (individual) or institution (organization). This chapter is conceptual, and its results will contribute to theory building in this area.
