Knowledge can be divided in both
tacit knowledge, which involves senses, skills and
intuition, and
explicit knowledge[?], which is formulated and/or captured.
The knowledge creation process involves 5 steps:
- Sharing tacit knowledge
- Creating concepts
- Justifying concepts
- Building a prototype
- Cross-leveling knowledge
