BACKGROUND Knowledge mobilization (KM) has been described as putting research in the hands of research users. Network analysis is an empirical approach that has potential for examining the complex process of knowledge mobilization within community-based organizations (CBOs). Yet, conducting a network analysis in a CBO presents challenges. PURPOSE The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate th...

this commentary reviews a recent piece by burton and rycroft-malone on the use of resource based view (rbv) in healthcare organizations. it first outlines the core content of their piece. it then discusses their attempts to extend rbv to the analysis of large scale quality improvement efforts in healthcare. some critique is elaborated. the broader question of why rbv seems to be migrating into ...

the challenge of mobilizing knowledge to improve patient care, population health and ensure effective use of resources is an enduring one in healthcare systems across the world. this commentary reflects on an earlier paper by ferlie and colleagues that proposes the resource-based view (rbv) of the firm as a useful theoretical lens through which to study knowledge mobilization in healthcare. spe...

The role of a discussion paper is to provoke discussion. Hence, my comments will be heretical rather than theoretical. For the theory, see [19]. Today I want to say two things. Firstly, the knowledge maintenance (KM) problem is our next big challenge. A common method for tackling the KM problem is to use some type of meta-knowledge to represent expected/unexpected or good/bad knowledge. This me...
