SECI model Flashcards
What is Externalization in the SECI model?
Externalization is converting tacit knowledge into explicit knowledge by articulating, writing down, or diagramming thoughts and insights, making it accessible to others.
What is Socialization in the SECI model?
Socialization is the process of sharing tacit knowledge directly through observation, hands-on practice, and experience. It’s learning by doing, often through informal means like mentoring and apprenticeships.
What is Combination in the SECI model?
Combination involves combining different pieces of explicit knowledge to create a new, more complex understanding, like synthesizing reports or analyzing data.
What is Internalization in the SECI model?
Internalization is the process of absorbing explicit knowledge into tacit knowledge by practicing, applying, or training, effectively learning by doing.
What is the SECI model in knowledge creation?
The SECI model describes a process where knowledge transforms and grows through four stages: Socialization, Externalization, Combination, and Internalization. It creates a dynamic, ongoing spiral of knowledge sharing within an organization.
