Advance Praise for Knowledge Capital: How Knowledge-Based Enterprises are Really Built...

“Knowledge Capital is a great roadmap for quickly getting at the essence of what knowledge management is and how and why it matters. This collection of evocative interviews covers both the theory and the practices of what we have learned in knowledge management. Reading this book will be time well spent for any senior manager who needs to create an agile firm that can constantly respond to a changing world.”—John Seely Brown, Former Chief Scientist, Xerox Corp

“I like this book! It is not yet another stilted theory construction. The format allows the voice of the knowledgeable persons to come through. Refreshingly practical, it should not be on everybody's bookshelf; it should be in everybody's lap!”—Karl-Erik Sveiby, Principal, Sveiby Knowledge Associates and professor in Knowledge Management, Swedish Business School Hanken, Helsinki, Finland

“At Cadence, I have learned that values alignment is the "secret sauce "to nurture innovation, knowledge sharing, and a culture dedicated to customer success. Knowledge sharing starts with a focus on shared values reinforced and practiced daily. Knowledge Capital provides many provocative thoughts to simmer this 'secret sauce'.”—Spencer Clark, Chief Learning Officer, Vice President, Cadence Design Systems

“Organizations, whether they realize it or not, are networks of conversations. In Knowledge Capital, Jay Chatzkel shares the stories of leaders who successfully create environments which harvest real value. He also offers his own insights into the union of intellectual capital and knowledge management, yielding a powerful new model for leadership in turbulent times.”—Tom Petzinger, CEO, LaunchCyte LLC.; former "Front Lines" columnist, The Wall Street Journal

“Knowledge Capital gives me ready access to the insights and experience of some of the best creators and practitioners of knowledge management and intellectual capital. Most books try to tell you the prefabricated answer in a too simple way. This book recognizes that we are intelligent people who can take what we need from any area to build the capabilities that will make a pragmatic, rapid and sensible difference for us.”—Bengt Anderberg, Director General, FOI, Swedish Defense Research Agencyew from Oxford
