"Gareth Morgan (Porthcawl, Wales, 22 December, 1943) is a British / Canadian [organizational theorist]], management consultant and Distinguished Research Professor at York University in Toronto. He is known as creator of the "organisational metaphor" concept and writer of the bestsellers Images of Organization.[1], Imaginization: New Mindsets for Seeing, Organizing and Managing, Riding the Waves of Change and other books on management. He is also well known for his writings on social theory and research methodology, especially through his books Sociological Paradigms and Organizational Analysis (written with Gibson Burrell)and Beyond Method: Strategies for Social Research. The common theme uniting his work is that of challenging assumptions - to help develop new ways of thinking in social research, organization and management theory and practice, and, by implication, in everyday life."

"The now-classic Metaphors We Live By changed our understanding of metaphor and its role in language and the mind. Metaphor, the authors explain, is a fundamental mechanism of mind, one that allows us to use what we know about our physical and social experience to provide understanding of countless other subjects. Because such metaphors structure our most basic understandings of our experience, they are "metaphors we live by"-metaphors that can shape our perceptions and actions without our ever noticing them."

In this paper, we survey a number of different knowledge management strategies and a range of driving forces for knowledge management activities. We synthesise these using an extended version of an existing "KM spectrum"; apply a knowledge engineering approach to provide further guidance for the KM spectrum; and then describe a simple classification approach that links the driving forces to KM strategies, using a number of published heuristics. Finally, a case study is presented in which we apply our approach and discuss its usefulness.
