Because there is not a ‘set is stone’ definition of knowledge management, it can be interpretted in many ways. It also includes a broad scope of things from facilitating meetings, sharing past knowledge with current workers, technological management etc. So how do we define and transform information, which accounts for statistics, facts, numbers, theories, into knowledge?; applied experience product, routine, and organizational processes. When first tapping into the company wide database or international websharing site, it is information that we are trying to get our hands on. ‘Give me what you found so that I can do my own job, quicker, better’. Knowledge management is actually what we do with it from there. Once we take the successful methods or programs that have been used into consideration, we apply them, and make them our own success, then we have used “knowledge management”. With this in mind, it makes me think that it is then just as important to do your own research on the job, find your methods of success and efficiency in order to improve yourself. Because…knowledge is experience, knowledge is power.
