English | ISBN: 365836534X | 2022 | 156 pages | PDF | 2 MB
The concept of Communities of Practice is nowadays 'common parlance' in the private and public sector. However, research concerning the potential and benefits of CoPs embedded in public organizations lacks behind. Consequently, it still remains vague whether informal CoPs are able to unfold their widely recognized potential in terms of knowledge creation and dissemination within the context of the public sector.
