dc.descriptionThe emergence of the Web has brought proximity and favored partnership among different groups viewing to cooperate in the generation of knowledge and in the process of innovation. Among the organizational forms of cooperation, the communities of practice (COPs) have been notable as a propitious activity for joining work groups aiming at creating and sharing knowledge as well as problem solving (Wenger et al., 2002). For some authors, communities of practice have always been part of the informal structure of any organization. However, IT has made it possible to exchange knowledge and ideas at an unprecedented pace. The aim of this paper is to analyze the formation and performance of communities of practice as a tool for enterprise innovation. The methodology used in this paper is based on a case study of a multinational company whose performance as an innovative enterprise has been outstanding.en-US
dc.descriptionLa aparición de la Web ha traído la proximidad y ha favorecido la asociación entre diferentes grupos, en vista de cooperar en la generación de conocimiento y el proceso de innovación. Entre las formas de cooperación organizacional, las comunidades de práctica (COPs) han sido notorias como una actividad propicia para unir a grupos que apuntan a la creación y repartición de conocimiento, como también para resolver problemas en conjunto (Wenger et al., 2002). Para algunos autores, las comunidades de práctica tienen siempre una parte de estructura informal de cualquier organización. Sin embargo, las TICs han hecho posible el intercambio de conocimiento e ideas como anteriormente no ocurría. El objetivo del siguiente trabajo es analizar la formación y el desempeño de las comunidades de práctica como una herramienta de innovación empresarial. La metodología empleada está basada en un estudio de casos de una compañía multinacional cuyo desempeño como empresa innovativa ha sido exitoso.es-ES
