The acquisition, understanding and interpretation of information. Knowledge is often used to refer to a body of facts and principles accumulated by humankind over the course of time. Explicit knowledge is knowledge that can be easily expressed in documents. Implicit knowledge and tacit knowledge represent knowledge or know-how that individuals hold in their memory. Explicit knowledge is contained in documents, drawings, calculations, designs, databases, procedures and manuals. Implicit knowledge and tacit knowledge are held in a person’s mind and have typically not been captured or transferred in any form (if they had, they would then become explicit knowledge). Compared with explicit knowledge, such knowledge is more difficult to articulate or to write down and so it tends to be shared between people through discussion and personal interaction. It includes skills, experiences, insight, intuition and judgement.
