Abstract:This article investigates how professional work is reorganized through the use of knowledge management techniques, concentrating in particular on the management of knowledge around clinical risk. Attempts by hospital risk managers are proposed to manage medical knowledge towards organizational learning. Rather than seeing professionals as being drawn into management roles or bureaucratic ways of working, it is proposed that managerial techniques and jurisdictions are also strategically drawn into professional practice and identity.
