WHAT IS KNOWLEDGE?*
• The classical Greek period

WHAT IS KNOWLEDGE?*
• The classical Greek period
• The 'knowledge as possession' view
• The ‘epistemology of practice’ view

WHAT IS KNOWLEDGE?*
“Individuals and groups clearly make use of knowledge, both explicit and tacit, in what they do; but not everything they know how to do, we argue, is explicable solely in terms of the knowledge they possess. We believe that individual and group action requires us to speak about both knowledge used in action and knowing as part of the action” (Cook and Brown, 1999, p. 382).
“Organizations are better understood... if knowledge and knowing
are seen as mutually enabling (not competing). We hold that knowledge is a tool for knowing, that knowing is an aspect of our interaction with the social and physical world, and the interplay of knowledge and knowing can generate new knowledge and new ways of knowing” (Cook and Brown, 1999, p. 381).

WHAT IS KNOWLEDGE?*
• The classical Greek period
• The 'knowledge as possession' view
• The ‘epistemology of practice’ view
• Working definition of knowledge
– 'the ability to discriminate within and across contexts' (Swan, 2008).

WHAT IS KNOWLEDGE?*
• The classical Greek period • The 'knowledge as possession' view • The ‘epistemology of practice’ view • Working definition of knowledge
– 'the ability to discriminate within and across contexts' (Swan, 2008).
– 'a learned set of norms, shared understandings and practices that integrates actors and artefacts to produce valued outcomes within a specific social and organizational context' (Scarbrough, 2008).
