Lots has been written, and there are tens of thousands of practitioners out there—in-company specialists and consultants. Unlike Lean, Agile and other business improvement methodologies, KM has never had a single agreed set of tools, or a commercial accreditation or standard.  Attending a KM conference can feel a bit like visiting an international street food market!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn many ways, the arrival of an internationally agreed standard and vocabulary, imbues fresh professional credibility to the field of Knowledge Management. It provides knowledge managers with a \"brand-new kitchen,\" and a moment during which they can pause for a moment and consider the service that they provide to their organizations. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy a Cookbook? For a potential restaurateur who has gone beyond casual street-food and is looking to sell a service to customers, the challenge – and the opportunity – is to provide a distinctive offering with consistency and professionalism. To do that successfully requires a number of elements: credible reputation, premises, staff, tasty and appealing menus and recipes, compliance with relevant food hygiene standards, and, of course, blood, sweat and tears. And at the heart of it all, with its appliances, utensils and food stocks, is the restaurant kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn The KM Cookbook, we use the metaphor of the restaurant, its cuisine, owner, chef, staff, ingredients, menu-planners, customers – and a restaurant critic to serve up ISO30401 on a plate for the readers. The second half of the book explore sixteen different examples of KM in practice, through the words of their ‘KM chefs’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImagine you had the opportunity, not just to enjoy a new, well-equipped and fully inspected kitchen – but also the chance to sit down with KM ‘chefs’ from around the world, across different industry sectors and listen to their stories. That's exactly what we have set out to do with The KM Cookbook. Draw up a chair -  we hope you’re hungry!  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCase studies include: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneral Electric\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorld Bank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSAID\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchlumberger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePROCERGS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedecins sans Frontieres\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransport for London\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternational Olympic Committee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTechnip\/FMC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLinklaters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSyngenta\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefence Science and Technology Laboratory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinancial Conduct Authority\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePetroleum Development Oman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSaudi Aramco\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMAPNA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAuthor: Chris J.
