<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial Narrow","sans-serif"'>The
world economy in which we are living poses challenges that lead to a
realization that 'more of the same' will be difficult to sustain. This provides
an illustration that, in order to create new or modified knowledge practices,
strengthen customer relationships and thus positively influence customer
satisfaction, organizations must be flexible in configuring (combining)
knowledge and knowledge structures in a way that is appropriate for delivering
value to the customer. It must simultaneously develop effective strategies for
updating the knowledge of its staff members necessary for underpinning the creation
and delivery of appropriate knowledge services. Thus, unlearning (forgetting)
becomes a critical means for organizational success. The ECKM community of
scholars has already initiated dialogue that links its particular strengths to
innovation issues. This conference aims to further that dialogue by attracting
leading edge work that leverages the ECKM community's in-depth understanding of
learning and unlearning to better understand knowledge management. Our aim is
to stimulate breakthrough research streams linking learning, unlearning and
knowledge management<o:p></o:p></span></p>

many subjects, as well as by innovative ideas and experiences. We are also
interested in case studies that demonstrate how research strategies have been
applied and the lessons learned. We welcome contributions on many topics,
presenting a range of scholarly approaches, theoretical and empirical papers
employing qualitative, quantitative and critical methods are eagerly awaited.
Action research, case studies and work-in-progress/posters are welcomed
approaches. PhD Research, proposals for roundtable discussions, non-academic
contributions and product demonstrations based on the main themes are also
invited.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
