Managing Knowledge for Sustained Competitive Advantage explains why many scholars believe it is the direction for competition in the future! and shows how industrial and organizational psychologists can not only contribute to our understanding of knowledge-based competition! but also to the ability of companies to succeed with it.Contributors include:Sharon A.
