The Dynamics between Tacit and Explicit Knowledge in Mauritian Business using Knowledge Creation Taxonomy

Journal Title: Saudi Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 9

Abstract

Abstract: This research paper analyses the impact of knowledge creation process on Mauritian business from a case study perspective. The knowledge creation process is a dynamic one since it comes from diverse areas. Firstly, the university or any training institution develops business courses that would help students benefit from job opportunities in firms which expected them to apply their knowledge at work. On the other hand, the knowledge creation process might come from the firm that urges the graduate to develop his knowledge and capabilities that should directly impact on the business. There is also a new approach whereby the university develops courses by integrating the student with the industry in a programme tailor-made for the organisation. This paper states that knowledge creation process should be developed in a dynamic way that integrates and addresses business needs in today’s fast changing environment. Through a case study approach in three selected situations, using Nanoko’s Taxonomy of knowledge creation as a framework, it reveals that the knowledge creation process is a two-fold dynamic practice and that its success depends on the inter-relationship between tacit and explicit knowledge. Keywords: Knowledge creation, case analyses, tacit and explicit knowledge, dynamics
