From the Paper:
"The process of knowledge management involves gathering information from experience, meaning both whatever experience others may have gathered and placed in a database or a written source and the experience of the individual, the employees, and the organization itself, as gathered and maintained in a database. Technology makes a more thorough gathering and maintenance of such material, and it also allows for subsequent access and analysis of this information in training new employees, in transmitting practices and customs, and in assuring greater continuity in the organization."Sample of Sources Used:
