Preface

The world of knowledge management is undergoing profound change. Digitalisation, Artificial Intelligence (AI), new forms of work, and constantly evolving societal frameworks present companies, organisations, and academia with ever-new challenges. At the same time, these developments open up unprecedented opportunities for innovation, sustainable development, and the creation of future-proof structures.

This book brings together current scientific findings, practice-oriented analyses, and innovative approaches from various areas of knowledge management. It spans a wide range, from the strategic importance of employer branding in times of demographic change and agile learning to the integration of AI into knowledge and innovation processes, concrete applications such as the sentiment analysis of social media to measure quality of life, and the digital transformation in e-commerce.
