Abstract
Objectives
1. To explore, extend and refine the theory based framework of Schultze and Stabell discourses, and contradictions in KM research.
2. To discuss double edged nature of knowledge by highlighting different assumptions about knowledge and its management.
3. To discuss strategy paradoxes as additional contradictions in the domain of KM research
4. To elaborate further specifically dialogic discourse and constructivist discourse.
Methodology
Using the examples of Pakistani organization and International cases for exploring paradoxes in the land of KM and strategic management, the relevant literature has been explored from strategic management and knowledge management. For Pakistani organizations insights are taken from Brand Elections 2010 and for multinational organizations, the examples of short cases are taken from the book Strategy: Process, Content, Context – An international perspective. The 3D view of strategy (strategy process, strategy content, strategy context) along with the exploration of different paradoxes lying in 3D view of strategy (strategy process, strategy content, strategy context) with reference to KM has been presented. Suggestions have been made to extend and further refine the theory based model of Schultze and Stabell as the direction for future research.
