[MurphJen at aol.com]

Are you into studying organizational learning?  Do you wonder why  
organizations keep making the same mistakes over and over?
 
Then think about submitting/participating to the organizational learning  
minitrack from the Knowledge, Innovation, and Entrepreneurial Systems Track 
at  HICSS50!
 
This is a second year minitrack and we are hoping to recruit a good  number 
of papers and expand what turned out to be a vibrant research  community 
around the topic of organizational learning, knowledge,  and KM.  Plus its the 
50th anniversary for HICSS and there is no other  nicer place to focus on 
crowd science than the Big Island in January and don't  you want to be part 
of the celebration?
 
Below is the CfP for the Knowledge, Innovation, and Entrepreneurial Systems 
 Track at HICSS50, pay particular attention to the organizational  learning 
minitrack!
 
 
 
Dear Colleagues, 
Please consider submitting a manuscript to the  *Knowledge, Innovation, and 
Entrepreneurial Systems” Track for HICSS-50, which  will take place at 
Hilton Waikoloa Village in the beautiful island of Hawai'i.  More information on 
the track is available below. If you have any questions, do  not hesitate 
to contact Dave Croasdell or me. 
Knowledge Innovation and Entrepreneurial Systems  recognizes the evolving 
nature of work and society to being knowledge based.  Competitive pressures 
are forcing organizations to do more with less and to  leverage all they know 
to succeed. Knowledge systems are those systems developed  to facilitate 
collaboration, knowledge capture, storage, transfer and flow;  knowledge use; 
as well as to foster creativity and innovation. This track  explores the 
many factors that influence the development, adoption, use, and  success of 
knowledge systems. These factors include culture, measurement,  governance and 
management, storage and communication technologies, process  modeling and 
development. The track also looks at the societal drivers for  knowledge 
systems including an aging work force, the need to distribute  knowledge and 
encourage collaboration in widely dispersed organizations and  societies, and 
competitive forces requiring organizations of all types to adapt  and change 
rapidly.
