Just came back from Milan two days ago, where a curricular seminar on organizational behaviour and business strategy was taking place. Beside the core learning of basic truths to organizational design and group processes, it was especially interesting to hear some insights in how to manage a knowledge management project. Basically what this weblog reflects is not more as what is said through the simplified term where all knowledge projects derive from:
Intellectual Capital = Human Capital + Structural Capital
To aggregate explicit knowledge out of this and utilize those abstract values, one has to engage in methods as socialization of the intellectual capital, the interplay between internalization and externalization of human and structural capital. Furthermore the structural knowledge employed in the system should then be multiplied through the process of combination, as the theory calls it.
Most striking to me was that it´s more or less 85% of tacit knowledge, that exists in every group or corporation, whereas only 15% is made explicit. Consequently (I assume) it should be even more for a single indvidual.
So, finally i found a first theoretical glue for why I´m doing what I do here…
cheers;-!
