Abstract:The authors' thesis is that the effects of the hollowing out need to be very carefully managed in both the single enterprise and between multi-enterprises. And the implementation of ERP needs precise management in multi- national firms in general, and Japanese firms in particular, if they are to engage in strategic networking with any degree of permeability - since they will have little resultant organisational slack to generate new organisational learning. The authors state that encoding of personal knowledge in open databases will lead to a first level of learning: but through a culture supportive of learning the authors find that deeper learning is possible through the deployment of internet, intranet and extranet technology.
