Knowledge mobilisation is a transition from the prevailing knowledge management technology to some innovative methods for knowledge representation, formation and development and for knowledge retrieval and distribution. Knowledge mobilisation also carries the connotation on “knowledge on mobile phones” and this is actually one of the platforms that will be used. Fuzzy ontology replaces classica...

BACKGROUND Knowledge mobilisation in healthcare organisations is often carried out through relatively short-term projects dependent on limited funding, which raises concerns about the long-term sustainability of implementation and improvement. It is becoming increasingly recognised that the translation of research evidence into practice has to be supported by developing the internal capacity of...

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to underline the importance of taking work practices into account for quality improvement (QI) purposes, highlight some of the challenges of doing so, and suggest strategies for future research and practice. Patient status at a glance, a Lean-inspired QI intervention designed to alleviate nurses of their knowledge mobilisation function, is deployed as an i...

the rycroft-malone paper states that co-production relies on ‘authentic’ collaboration as a context for action. our commentary supports and extends this assertion. we suggest that ‘authentic’ co-production involves processes where participants can ‘see’ the difference that they have made within the project and beyond. we provide examples including: the use of design in health projects which see...

Purpose This paper underlines the importance of taking work practices into account for Quality Improvement purposes, highlights some of the challenges of doing so and suggests strategies for future research and practice. Patient status at a glance, a Lean-inspired QI intervention designed to alleviate nurses of their knowledge mobilisation function, is deployed as an illustrative case. Design E...

Knowledge network/mobilisation and lean performance have been most often discussed in an isolated manner in generic context in literature. Few studies currently exist that focus on their relationship in supply chain management. This study investigates the relationships between knowledge network types/ mobilisation approaches and successful lean performance outcome using fuzzy-set qualitative co...

The most challenging, and potentially rewarding, aspect of knowledge management, and systems to support knowledge creation and innovation, is that of collective knowledge in a group or community. In this paper the term “mobilisation” is preferred to that of “management” as it is more closely related to creative activity. Technology used for knowledge mobilisation should be developed, not on its...
