In the past, land, labour, and capital were the limiting factors of production in organisations. In the 21^st century a fourth factor is increasingly being acknowledged as the limiting factor responsible for the success or failure of organisations. This crucial factor is known as 'knowledge'. Managing knowledge or leveraging an organisation's knowledge asset in today's global economy is so fundamental, that ignoring it is at the detriment of the organisation's corporate performance.
