I accept all these as valid issues.

We want to integrate it into the work processes; we also insist KM initiatives support the strategic goals of the organization; and, as Learning & Development, we are keenly aware that extracting and reusing knowledge is, at its core, a learning event and, therefore, people centric.

However, without an organizational steward (folks in the organization who's coordinated function is to propel, strategize, market, and guide KM, it won't go anywhere. That is the crux of my question: Which department makes the most sense as the "Owner" or "Steward" of KM?

Thanks for your responses so far.
