Knowledge transfer in a corporate setting: A case study.
Burton, Craig Louis.

Knowledge transfer in a corporate setting: A case study. - 239 p.

Chair: Thomas Schwen.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Indiana University, 2002.

The theory of “ba” or “space” (von Krogh, Ichijo and Nonaka, 2000; Nonaka, 1991; Nonaka & Konnu, 1998) suggests that particular settings and conditions foster the conversion of particular kinds of knowledge between individuals. Specifically, interacting ba (one dimension of the theory) prescribes five criteria in order to convert tacit knowledge to explicit knowledge; these criteria are the sharing of mental models, the presence of care and trust, the use of metaphors, a consciously constructed environment and a cross-functional group. The authors intimate that these criteria are necessary and sufficient to externalize tacit knowledge; i.e., place it in symbolic form that reflects the tacit knowing of experts.

520 $a The theory of “ba” or “space” (von Krogh, Ichijo and Nonaka, 2000; Nonaka, 1991; Nonaka & Konnu, 1998) suggests that particular settings and conditions foster the conversion of particular kinds of knowledge between individuals. Specifically, interacting ba (one dimension of the theory) prescribes five criteria in order to convert tacit knowledge to explicit knowledge; these criteria are the sharing of mental models, the presence of care and trust, the use of metaphors, a consciously constructed environment and a cross-functional group. The authors intimate that these criteria are necessary and sufficient to externalize tacit knowledge; i.e., place it in symbolic form that reflects the tacit knowing of experts.
520 $a This study focused on the conversion of tacit knowledge to explicit knowledge in a corporate planning activity. Three planning groups from different organizations were observed as they developed scenarios (or stories) intended to educate peers throughout their respective organizations. The investigator used a comparative case study method to investigate the three intense planning retreats. The theoretical prescriptions offered created the framework for the research questions.
520 $a Observation, interview and document analysis data were used to compare and contrast these well-structured planning sessions. One of the three groups performed much less well that the other two. The comparison of this outlier group with the more successful groups created many useful points of comparison.
520 $a A reasonable level of support was created for the theory. Within the context of this investigation, the criteria were found to be sufficient to externalize tacit knowledge, and there is evidence to suggest that the criteria are all inter-dependent and, therefore, necessary.
