Managing Tacit And Explicit Knowledge Ratnakarsharmaratnakar_sharma
Knowledge Management is an integrated approach to identifying, capturing, managing and sharing an organization\'s information assets like documents, database, other repositories and employee\'s expertise. It is a conscious strategy of getting the right knowledge to the right people at the right time so they can make the right decisions.
Effective management of knowledge is important because knowledge can create commercial value only when it is put into action. Knowledge is fortunately a process that can be nurtured in organizations.
This presentation explains Tacit and Explicit, the two forms, the knowledge comes from in.

We at Think Talent believe that strong organization culture help build an environment with meaning, and offer ways to interpret and shape events and situations.
People gain knowledge if they learn from experience. Learning is thus a vital component of knowledge management and its ultimate end. Collective learning comes from participating in the social processes of collaboration, sharing knowledge, and building on one another's ideas.
Organizations implementing knowledge strategies generally go through five stages: pre-implementation, implementation, reinvigoration, inculcation, and holistic. This presentation details steps ADB took in 2008–2011 to initiate, develop, standardize, optimize, and innovate knowledge management and learning.
Daily, your organization is increasingly building valuable knowledge and experience. But how well are you capturing, documenting and sharing it? As your information and knowledge capitals grows, so does the importance of developing a knowledge management strategy. The first step as you begin to execute your strategy is to take inventory of how knowledge is used and stored. A knowledge audit is an incredibly valuable exercise for a number of reasons. So in this presentation, I want to share some of the key things to observe in doing so.
Tacit knowledge is hard to communicate but can be shared in discussions, storytelling, and personal interactions. This presentation points out a wide variety of tools, methods, and approaches that help surface it.

In simple terms a KM strategy is the process of generating, codifying, and transferring explicit and tacit knowledge within an organization, getting the right information, to the right people, in the right place and at the right time.
Sustainable competitive advantage derives from strenuous efforts to identify, cultivate, and exploit an organization's core competencies. Opportunities exist in strategy development, management techniques, collaboration mechanisms, knowledge sharing and learning, and knowledge capture and storage.

Reflections on a Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire 360 Leader's ReportOlivier Serrat
The Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire generates a psychological inventory from propositions that aim to assess leadership styles and leadership outcomes: it is a multi-rater (or 360-degree) instrument, which means that its output—the MLQ 360 Leader's Report—interprets and compares a leader's self-assessment with ratings contributed across the same items by associates.

Independent Evaluation for Learning: Toward Systemic ChangeOlivier Serrat
At the request of shareholders, evaluation studies focus on accountability (and hence provide for command, control, and finger-pointing); they do not serve as an important foundation of learning organizations.
Knowledge must be at the center of everything the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development does and knowledge is most valuable when it is actually used—not just identified, created, stored, or shared. A hypothetical diagnosis of ICIMOD's purpose, structure, relationships, rewards, leadership, and helpful mechanisms combined with an organizational culture assessment suggested that a "preferred" culture of adhocracy might drive higher effectiveness.
Designing an Effective Knowledge Partnership ProcessOlivier Serrat
Knowledge partnerships are about joint purpose in the identification, creation, storage, sharing, and use of knowledge; sadly, the state of the art in creating, managing, monitoring, and evaluating them remains immature.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

Auditing Knowledge
Olivier Serrat
2016
2. Consider This
What are an organization's knowledge needs?
What tacit and explicit knowledge assets does it have and where are they?
How does knowledge flow within the organization, formally and informally,
and to and from clients, audiences, and partners?
How is that knowledge identified, created, stored, shared, and used?
What obstacles are there to knowledge flows, meaning, to what extent do
people, processes, and technology support or hamper the movement of
knowledge in the organization?
What gaps and duplications exist in the organization's knowledge?
3. Define: Knowledge Audit
Knowledge
1. Facts, information, and skills acquired by a person through
experience or education; the theoretical or practical
understanding of a subject.
2. What is known in a particular field or in total; facts and
information.
3. Awareness or familiarity gained by experience of a fact or
situation.
A knowledge audit is an investigation of what an organization knows, mapped
against user and organizational needs: it pays attention to the what, where,
who, when, how and why of core knowledge activities, e.g., identification,
creation, storage, sharing, and use; it can span an organization or constituent
parts of it.
4. Why Conduct a Knowledge Audit?
Identify what knowledge is needed to reach an organization's goal and
support individual and group activities
Recognize the knowledge created and help assess its value and contribution
to organizational performance
Confirm that knowledge is being efficiently and effectively managed and
indicate where changes can be made
Identify intellectual assets and facilitate the creation of an intellectual asset
register
Distinguish pockets of knowledge that are not being used to advantage and
offer potential
Review the use of external knowledge and suggest ways to optimize that
5. Why Conduct a Knowledge Audit?
Assess the use and impact of knowledge products and services, how valuable
they are, and how they might be improved
Circumscribe knowledge flows and associated bottlenecks
Make out present and future knowledge gaps
Develop knowledge and social network maps of an organization
Supply data to support knowledge management initiatives
Pinpoint quick wins
6. Knowledge Audit Constituents
Identify knowledge needs
Draw up a knowledge
inventory
Analyze knowledge
flows
Create knowledge maps
Identify what tacit and explicit knowledge individuals,
groups, and the organization possess and what
knowledge they need to perform better.
Inventorize knowledge assets: (i) explicit—categories
and numbers of documents, databases, libraries,
intranets, etc.; (ii) tacit—staff directories, skill databases,
training programs, etc.
Investigate how knowledge moves from where it is to
where it is needed, revealing good and bad practices,
paying attention to people, processes, and technology.
Visualize the sources, flows, and sinks of knowledge in
an organization.

Methodology

Lessons Architecture. Manila.
www.adb.org/publications/auditi
ng-lessons-architecture
There can be no blueprint to a
knowledge audit: the time it
takes to prepare and conduct one
depends on such parameters as
(i) the focus needed, e.g.
knowledge stocks and/or
knowledge flows); (ii) the size of
the target population, its
geographical location, and the
level of participation desired; (iii)
the resources available as well as
their capability; and (iv) the level
of detail required.
