The Importance of Knowledge Relevance

The speaker emphasizes the distinction between tacit and explicit knowledge, highlighting its significance in effective knowledge management (KM). Organizations must recognize the relevance of knowledge rather than overemphasizing codification, as not all documented knowledge carries equal value. Real avenues for sharing tacit knowledge should be facilitated to ensure it remains relevant and accessible. This involves creating spaces that promote informal interactions, such as water cooler talks, which are crucial for encouraging the flow of relevant knowledge.
