Abstract
The phenomenon under investigation is the transition from an industrial society to a society that is based to a larger extent on
knowledge resources. The question the authors are investigating is: What are the key value creation processes in a
knowledge-based organization? The objective of the article is to understand and explain the social mechanisms that influence
the development of knowledge-based organizations. The method used is conceptual generalization. The findings are linked to
a new emphasis on information structure (infostructure), and a new way of organizing (front line focus), the modulization of
work processes, and global competence clusters.
Keywords: infostructure, front line focus, modulization of work processes, global competence clusters.
