Abstract
Personal Knowledge Management or PKM is the process and strategy in expanding personal knowledge of individuals. PKM requires individuals to organize information that they obtained from learning or knowledge acquiring activities where they transform disorganized information into systemic application information thus turning information into useful knowledge. The process requires individuals to retrieve, evaluate, organize, collaborate, analyze, present and secure knowledge in their personal knowledge bank. In short all the processes denote organization activity of knowledge retention, retrieval and utilization. The ability of individuals to perform the systemic act leads to the description of Personal Knowledge Management Capability of individuals. In this sense PKM acts and function no differently than an organization memory or KM system and the lessons acquired through combination of practical and theoretical learning by individuals need to be kept and retained in ones’ personal knowledge bank for future retrieval and utilization. This requires Personal Knowledge Management of individuals to be geared in effectively. This paper reviews related literature that leads to developing a conceptual framework on Personal Knowledge Management Enabler towards Personal Knowledge Management Capability of individuals. Based on the literature review, three independent variables have been identified namely Knowledge Concept Awareness (KCA), Knowledge Retention Practice (KRP) and Knowledge Retrieval and Utilization Practice (KRUP) of which the trio represents the elements of Personal Knowledge Management Enabler that lead to the dependent variable; Personal Knowledge Management Capability.
