Tacit and Explicit knowledge Sample Clauses

Tacit and Explicit knowledge. The first classification of knowledge that I will discuss is TK and EK. This classification was developed by Xxxxxxx, 1966 with TK, and subsequently built upon over the years. TK is the unstructured, unconscious and context specific knowledge (Xxxxx and Xxxxxxx, 2001) that occupies the human mind (Xxxxxxxxxx, 2000; King, 2009). It is developed through experiences, actions, and intuition (Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx, and Xxxxxx, 2003; Xxxx and Xxxxxx, 2006; Xxxxxxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx, 2016) and depending on the literature, it is either extremely difficult (Xxxxxx and Xxxxx, 2005; King, 2009), or impossible to articulate (Xxxxx, Xxxxx and Xxxxx, 2005; Xxxxxxx et al., 2010; Xxxxxx and Xxxxxxxxx, 2012). Generally, it is presumed that experts have more TK than members of the public (Orange, Xxxxx, and Xxxx, 2000; Xxxxx, Xxxxx and Xxxxx, 2005), with an example of TK being cross-cultural negotiation skills (Xxxxxxx, 1994), within an organisational partnership. On the other hand, EK is the structured (Serban and Luan. 2002; Xxxxxxxxxxxx, and Xxxxxxxx. 2016) and conscious knowledge that can be articulated through written or spoken language (Xxxxx and Xxxxxxx. 2001; King. 2009; Xxxxxx and Xxxxxxxxx. 2012). Due to its ability to be articulated, EK can be captured and shared through social interactions (Xxxxxx, 1994) and technology (Xxxxxxxxxx, 2000). It exists in formats such as, numerical data, documents, databases, or manuals (Orange, Xxxxx, and Xxxx, 2000; Easterby‐Xxxxx, and Xxxxx, 2011), where it is widely accessible (Xxxxxxx et al., 2010.) An example of EK would be knowing how to do calculus (Xxxxxxx, 1994). TK and EK are generally described as separate entities based on their characteristics, although some would suggest they are on more of a spectrum (Spender, 1996; Xxxxxx and Dinur, 1998; Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx and Xxxxxxx, 2005). However, whilst TK can be conceptualised by itself, to understand and interpret EK, prior TK is required (Xxxxxxx, 1966; Xxxxx, 1999; Xxxxx and Xxxxxxx, 2001). Furthermore, since articulating TK is difficult, there has been considerable research on transforming knowledge either through Socialisation (Tacit-Tacit), Externalisation (Tacit-Explicit), Combination (Explicit- Explicit) and Internalisation (Explicit-Tacit) (Nonaka, 1994). However, that is not to say that one class of knowledge is superior, only that they are complementary to one another (Nonaka and Peltokorpi, 2006) and that to attain the highest level of knowledge, all classes of knowledge...
