This exploratory research seeks to identify the relationships between the leadership, empowerment and commitment within the integrated model of competing values framework (CVF) of organisational culture. A conceptual model which relates the constructs to commitment is developed. The study attempts to use a social constructionist approach and scenario planning, which falls under the broader realm of qualitative analysis. Hypothetical cases are used to develop two scenarios. The study proposes an integrated model of CVF, and also provides greater understanding of the competencies required in the organisation to move from one competing value quadrant to another. The paper helps managers gain better understanding of managerial roles, their inter-relationships to each other and how to apply them more effectively. It further develops an understanding by providing a model of how to transform an organisation to be a self-sustained one. The study also brings forth a constructive approach in management.

Over the last decade, knowledge has been increasingly viewed as an invaluable organisational resource. With the advent of globalisation there has been an explosion of information and the success of an organisation is more or less dependent on the extent to which it is able to utilise this massive amount of information. Organisations are facing a crisis dealing with this vast ocean of information management and utilisation. This is where knowledge management (KM) has emerged as the key to solve this predicament. In this paper we present the potential and benefits of KM in healthcare. This paper is substantiated by a detailed review of the concepts of KM in general and relevant to healthcare, and addresses the potential benefits of its implementation. The paper is based on the collections of systematically reviewed literature and is a theoretical approach to understanding the role of KM in healthcare in the Indian context. There are less number of studies in India, about KM for PHC's or secondary/ tertiary healthcare domains in India. This descriptive attempt can help future researchers to gain in-depth insights and practical implications along with advantages of a proper KM in the Indian healthcare community.
