After nine years in Australia I am now based in Helsinki, Finland and professor in Knowledge Management at Hanken Business School. I keep in touch with Australia as Honorary Professor at Griffith Graduate School of Management, Brisbane, and at Macquarie Graduate School of Management, Sydney. I'm also adjunct professor at Hongkong Polytechnic.

I have researched management of knowledge and knowledge organisations since the early 1980s, which makes me a bit of a veteran in the rapidly emerging research field, nowadays called Knowledge Management. I have published twelve books on the subject, the first in 1986. You´ll find a list further down.

Having been a manager in this kind of business myself, my approach is practical and hands-on, rather than theoretical. And I do not believe much in lectures as a means of transferring knowledge.

Why? Read here! Instead I develop support tools for people to create their own knowledge based on their own reality.

Examples are Tango the world´s only business simulation of the Knowledge Organisation and Tangonet - the on-line version, that Klas Mellander, Celemi, and I developed together, and KMAP.

You may experience the on-line versions of some of the tools at www.sveibytoolkit.com.
