ASSESS

25
Q

Ensure that the organization’s future intellectual capital will keep the organization viable and competitive.

28
Q

What are the four processes under the Knowledge Production in McElroy KM Cycle?

A
  • Individual and Group Learning
  • Knowledge Claim Formulation
  • Information acquisition
  • Knowledge validation
29
Q

It is the process by which an organization introduces new knowledge claims to its operating environment and retire old ones.

30
Q

It involves the process of effectively incorporating and disseminating knowledge within an organization.

It refers to an assertion or statement about what is known or believed to be true within a specific context or organization.

A

Knowledge claim

33
Q

Matches reinforce existing knowledge, leading to its reuse, whereas mismatches lead to adjustments in business-processing behavior via __________, (Argyris and Schon, 1978)

A

Single-loop learning

34
Q

Successive failures from mismatches will lead to doubt and ultimately rejection of existing knowledge, which will in turn trigger knowledge processing to produce and integrate new knowledge, this time via ___________, (Argyris and Schon, 1978)

A

Double-loop learning

42
Q

It is the act of combining two or more information.

A

Pooling knowledge

43
Q
