However, despite the fact that consulting firms are generally aware of the value of knowledge for their own organizations and for their clients, the empirical evidence shows that even today the (economic and, above all, cognitive) value-creation potential related to the transition from consulting approaches geared to the transfer of "best practices" (consultant as expert) to consulting approaches geared to the cooperative creation of new knowledge and managerial capabilities (consultant as a facilitator of new managerial knowledge and capabilities creation processes) is rarely consciously perceived and, consequently, is not adequately planned for and exploited. This book interprets management consulting from a knowledge perspective, and proposes a general conceptual framework for investigating and interpreting that potential. 410 0$aStudi e saggi. 517 $aKnowing through consulting in action 606 $aManagement 606 $aBusiness 615 0$aManagement. 615 0$aBusiness. 676 $a658 700 $aCiampi$b Francesco$0128066 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910424586703321 996 $aKnowing Through Consulting in Action$93018003 997 $aUNINA
