Abstract
Abstract
Andre Botha, acting Knowledge Management (KM) Officer for Sasol Limited, faced considerable challenges. In 1998, Sasol had embarked on a KM journey, championed by KM Officer Marina Hiscock. In 2000, the group had adopted a global KM strategy to extend KM to all strategic business units (SBUs) throughout the group. While some SBUs had implemented KM successfully, in others implementation had progressed slowly. In April 2006, Hiscock had resigned and the task of taking KM forward in the Sasol Group fell on Botha, an engineer who had successfully introduced KM at Sasol Mining. Now, in July 2006, it was time for Botha to take stock of what KM had achieved and consider what Sasol should do next.
