Uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka en organisations förutsättningar till att använda intranätet för kunskapsspridning. Även vilken roll som intranätet har för användarna kommer att studeras. Vidare vill jag synliggöra ett problem som många gånger uppkommer med intranät, att organisationers förväntningar på intranät inte lyckas realiseras. Tidigare forskning har visat att intranät kan användas som ett verktyg för Knowledge Management. Knowledge Management handlar om att använda lärande som ett sätt att utveckla organisationens materiella och immateriella tillgångar.

A flat organisation makes a horizontal career development possible, which means that it is more important to develop an individual?s knowledge base than to gain a higher title. This leads to a personal development, which motivates expats to stay. Since the responsibility of the career development mostly lies on expats themselves, companies should create conditions that make individual, internal job search possible. Like in IKEA:s case, it can be done through a strong and prestige less company culture, that penetrates the whole company.

In the aftermath of three high-profile honor killings the social service administrators became strongly criticized for their lack of skills and knowledge when it comes to dealing with honorrelated cases. In order to fix this lack of knowledge and to respond to the criticism from the society, the Swedish government allocated resources to train administrators in social services to improve their knowledge of honor-related violence and know how to handle clients who are victims of honor-related crimes.The aim of this study is to examine how social service administrators perceive their professional knowledge regarding to their work in honor-related cases. How they perceive their competence and discretion in relation to the work of honor-related problems and their perception of what resources the organization has to provide training and skill development in this area. The study shows that the social service administrators experience that there has been a development of knowledge in some areas regarding their work with honor-related cases but that there still exists an uneven distribution in terms of knowledge between small and large communities in Sweden..

I en allt mer föränderlig och globaliserad värld ökar trycket på företagens konkurrensförmåga. Knowledge Management (KM) behandlar förmågan att tillvarata intellektuellt kapital med syfte att överföra kunskap från individ till organisation. Vår studie är formad enligt kvalitativa arbetssätt, med en fallstudie på ett globalt, tillverkande företag i Sverige. Rapportens syften är att bidra till forskningsområdet KM, undersöka metoder för kunskapshantering med fokus på projektverksamhet samt undersöka i vilken mån detta företag är en lärande organisation. Den teoretiska grunden baseras på områden som identifierades ha en nära anknytning till KM och vår problemställning; KM, kunskap, projektledare, lärande organisationer och företagskultur.

De flesta företag är i dagens läge i högsta grad beroende av den information och kunskap som deras anställda besitter. Men vetskapen om hur denna kunskap skall tas till vara är inte alltid en självklarhet. Det är hanteringen och spridningen av kunskapen som begreppet Knowledge Management innefattar. Knowledge Management tar hela tiden större plats ute bland organisationer, och det är förståelsen för vikten av detta som medfört att större fokus har lagts på den teknik som används vid kunskapshantering. Då utvecklingen av tekniken pågår konstant, skapas dels nya möjligheter men även barriärer som måste överkommas.
