Workshop Knowledge Management in International Professional Services Firms (KMIPSF 2005)

This is especially the case with professional services firms, usually considered fertile ground for the ideas behind KM. International law firms, most of all, pose exceptional challenges to the ambitions of KM since common cultural, technological and economic obstacles identified by KM theory cumulate in this market.
