7. Thinking provides knowledge, Knowledge makes you great. Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Honorable President of India from annual address at Saurashtra University, Rajkot, Gujarat
Knowledge is created by the interaction of experience with information . Fundamentally, there are two types of knowledge: explicit and tacit (read definitions/examples from slide) Our bookshelves, libraries, and the internet are full of explicit knowledge. Of the two knowledge types, it is the easier type to access. Tacit knowledge, on the other hand, is described as ‘know-how’…it’s what you and I carry around in our heads…the result of years of learning and experience. Tacit knowledge is much harder to harness and can very easily walk out of the door! Think about the gap that is often created when a key person at HCC leaves or retires. Years of experience, wisdom, professional relationships, etc. go with him/her and are lost to the organization. Tacit knowledge is often also the most valuable because it is difficult for others to replicate and is often the source of competitive advantage…

Better, quicker, faster, cheaper…these are the challenges and demands of our times…the so-called information age. Never before have we had access to so much information and never before have we had so little time for assimilation, reflection, and study. When it comes to the knowledge “explosion”, Catherine the Great foretold our condition…our abundance can be both a blessing and a curse. A human-centered approach, KM melds people, processes and technology to foster “imagination” and alleviate the “pain”.
What is it that we are talking about when we discuss systematically managing or sharing knowledge? It is the discipline & framework that helps an organization capture, acquire, package and share “what we know”.

The transition into the knowledge era means that knowledge has become the core resource, capability and asset for many organisations, it is the competitive edge – using and leveraging knowledge supports winning organisations. According to Etienne Wenger, a key thinker in the area of organisations and knowledge ‘Knowledge has become the key to success it is simply to valuable a resource to be left to chance’ It is against this background that Knowledge management has emerged from a variety of other disciplines, such as human resource management, IT, information management and communications. Its foundations lie in the management of explicit knowledge including information, documents and records as well as the management of tacit knowledge including networks, skills transfer and learning. Its strength lies in its power to combine the organisational elements of people, content, process and technology into a coherent approach to address gaps in organisational capability.
As an institution of higher education, we fully realize that knowledge is our key asset. The practice of KM is particularly appropriate. The democratization of data and the sharing of information encourages people at all levels to contribute, participate, interact, grow and learn. (Read bullets from slide…)
