Principles of Knowledge Management."
1.Knowledge is messy.
Because knowledge is connected to everything else, you can’t isolate the knowledge aspect of anything neatly.
2.Knowledge is self-organizing.
The self that knowledge organises around is organizational or group identity and purpose.
3.Knowledge seeks community.
Knowledge wants to happen, just as life wants to happen. Both want to happen as community.
4.Knowledge travels via language.
Without a language to describe our experience, we can’t communicate what we know.
5 . There is no one solution.
Knowledge is always changing. For the moment, the best approach to managing it is one that keeps things moving along while keeping options open.
6. Knowledge doesn’t grow forever.
Eventually, some knowledge is lost or dies, just as things in nature. Unlearning and letting go of old ways of thinking.
7. No one is in charge.
Knowledge is a social process. That means no one person can take responsibility for collective knowledge.
8 .How you define knowledge determines how you manage it.
The “knowledge question” can present itself many ways. For example, concern about the ownership of knowledge leads to acquiring codified knowledge that is protected by copyrights and patents.
