Already a while ago, one of my Masters students in the Netherlands (Cindy Jooren) submitted a very interesting thesis studying the role that knowledge management plays in improving the innovative power of a company. Searching for emergence and networked interaction, she used agent based simulations. She did the research in the company she worked for, and therefor it took some time before we could make it public. In order to wait no longer for a full article publication, you already have access to the thesis version here.

This BLOG has a double purpose. It aims to contribute to the discussion and development of the academic field that could be situated in between complexity theory, knowledge management, innovation and learning; in summary a more holistic and systemic approach to management. As such it reflects the activities that take place in the Euromed transversal research track on this subject. The Home Page and the Reading host this contribution. In the News and Discussion sections, this BLOG is used to animate courses in the area of “Complexity and the Networked Economy”, "Knowledge Management and Learning" and "A quantum interpreation of business".

I downloaded and read the thesis. It's very interesting and contains many insights into the importance of complexity science for the management of corporate enterprises. It's a fascinating read.
