Organizations are progressively investing in knowledge management initiatives to encourage the production, sharing, and storage of knowledge in order to gain a competitive advantage. Knowledge Management Maturity Models (KMMM) have been developed to help organizations assess their current level of knowledge management and provide recommendations for moving to higher levels. Universities are significant organizations that produce knowledge and train individuals who generate knowledge. In this competitive environment, it is essential for universities to enhance their competitive power both nationally and internationally, improve knowledge sharing with internal and external stakeholders, and be managed from a strategic perspective. There is currently no model specific to universities in the literature. This article aims to design a Knowledge Management Maturity Model for Universities (U-KMMM) by reviewing existing models.

Üniversitelere Yönelik Bir Bilgi Yönetimi Olgunluk Modeli Geliştirilmesi (Ü-BYOM)

Öz

Örgütler, rekabet avantajı elde edebilmek için bilginin üretilmesi, paylaşılması ve saklanmasını teşvik etmek amacıyla bilgi yönetimi girişimlerine daha fazla yatırım yapmaktadır. Örgütlerin bilgi yönetimi konusunda hangi seviyede olduklarını hesaplamaları ve daha üst seviyelere çıkabilmeleri için önerilerde bulunmak amacı ile Bilgi Yönetimi Olgunluk Modelleri (BYOM) geliştirilmiştir. Üniversiteler, bilgi üreten ve bilgi üreten kişi yetiştiren önemli örgütlerdir. Bu rekabet ortamında üniversitelerin, ulusal ve uluslararası alanda rekabet güçlerini arttırmaları, iç ve dış paydaşları ile bilgi paylaşımını geliştirmeleri, stratejik bir bakış açısı ile yönetilmeleri gerekmektedir. Literatürde, üniversiteler özelinde bir model bulunmamaktadır. Bu makalede, mevcut modeller gözden geçirilerek, üniversiteler özelinde kullanılmak üzere bir Üniversiteler için Bilgi Yönetimi Olgunluk Modeli (Ü-BYOM) tasarlanması amaçlanmıştır.
