This paper looks at knowledge, knowledge management, stages of knowledge management, knowledge management tools as well as strategies of efficient knowledge management use.The information age has made knowledge the key to competitiveness. In today’s world, knowledge dominates and has to be effectively managed in order to increase organizational effectiveness.
