Hantering av erfarenhetshantering : en kvalitativ textanalys på försvarsmaktens gemensamma handbok för erfarenhetshantering

Sammanfattning: Organizational learning and management have been studied and researched for a long time, numerous of theories regarding the matter has been published and used withing the civilian sector and business. Military organizations are just as dependent on a working knowledge management system as the civilian sector.  Tom Dyson has previously conducted a case study within the NATO organization and some of its member countries and found problem areas with their way of managing experiences and ways to implement previously learned lessons.  This study aims to use Dyson’s theory regarding organizational learning within military organizations and apply them to the Swedish armed forces common handbook for knowledge management to determine if the Swedish way is suffering in any department, or if the common handbook is sufficient for an organization which require good and a well working knowledge management system. The result from the study shows that the Swedish armed forces do enforce most of Dyson’s criterions for a well working knowledge management system but are lacking in incorporating a common system for the personal within the organization to use, share and learn from previous lessons.
