Why Is Knowledge Management Important?
Knowledge should be evaluated by the decision or actions to which it leads
Based on Experience – Provides historical perspective to recognize familiar patterns of old solutions and apply them to new situations and events
Based on Truth – Knowing what works and what doesn’t work – the difference between the theoretical and the practical
Deals with Complexity – The more you know the better your decision will be
Provides the source of Judgment – Know when and how to apply and refine old patterns to new situations
