摘要

This paper presents a review on performance measurement of knowledge management (KM). The purpose of this paper is to provide an overall picture of the various types of approaches for KM performance evaluation. Different tools or models published in the literature are described and compared, and research directions are discussed. Future development directions for KM performance evaluation identified from this review include: (1) consideration of external factors, (2) integration of multiple methods, (3) development of external benchmarking tools, and (4) application of data envelopment analysis (DEA) in KM.
