A knowledge process is a [[Process|process]] that acts on or with [[Knowledge|knowledge]], either [[Individual knowledge|individual knowledge]] or [[Organizational knowledge|organizational knowledge]]. Most business and organizational work processes are knowledge-dependent and/or knowledge-driven, and by definition they embed one or more knowledge process. In the NKM Wiki, nine main categories of knowledge processes are recognised, namely Creation, Validation, Transformation, Disposal, Learning, Combination, Finding, Maintenance, Sharing (See Fig. 1). Each knowledge process category is used to represent similar or inter-related knowledge processes.

About this image

A knowledge process is a process that acts on or with knowledge, either individual knowledge or organizational knowledge. Most business and organizational work processes are knowledge-dependent and/or knowledge-driven, and by definition they embed one or more knowledge process. In the NKM Wiki, nine main categories of knowledge processes are recognised, namely Creation, Validation, Transformation, Disposal, Learning, Combination, Finding, Maintenance, Sharing (See Fig. 1). Each knowledge process category is used to represent similar or inter-related knowledge processes. For a detailled list of knowledge processes, please refer to Knowledge process (disambiguation) article.

Purpose

  • In the NKM Wiki, nine main categories of Knowledge processes are recognised (See Fig. 1 and click the pictures to see more about each category)
  • Knowledge processes should support business processes
  • Supportive culture is required to enable quality knowledge processes
  • A KM strategy defines the implementation of knowledge processes
  • Knowledge processes bring business benefits
  • Challenges are solved using Knowledge processes
  • KM Tools are enablers of knowledge processes
