Sommario/riassunto

A lo largo de esta última década, el interés por las comunidades de práctica (CPs) ha ido en aumento casi de manera exponencial. Las organizaciones han visto en las CPs la oportunidad de mejorar procesos y solucionar problemas. Con este libro sabrás qué son exactamente las comunidades de práctica, cuáles son sus características y qué las distingue de otros grupos de trabajo y comunidades virtuales.
