Title: GSSD-Enterprise for Multinational Corporations
Abstract: The focus of this chapter is largely on knowledge-linkages between subsidiaries and central management in large and mature multinational enterprises that are themselves meta-networks of smaller knowledge networks in subsidiary nodes. Examples of such extended enterprises include Sony, 3M, and Siemens, among the most obvious. Our purpose is to show how the conceptual and architectural design for the knowledge e-networking system presented in Part I of this book, namely the Global System for Sustainable Development (GSSD), may be adapted, customized, and implemented to serve as a value-enhancing knowledge network for extended enterprises. We will show how many of the key features of GSSD can provide critical support services as human knowledge-networking in the nodal business units within the network.
