A configurational approach to the dynamics of firm level knowledge

Abstract

Whilst there has been exponential growth in the work on the nature of
\norganisational knowledge, relatively little progress has been made in terms of
\nunderstanding the way in which knowledge specifically impacts on the firm. The
\naim of this paper is to further this understanding by developing a series of
\nconfigurations representing some of the potential ways that knowledge is
\ncomposed in organisations, with those components being tacit, explicit,
\narchitectural, component, individual and collective knowledge.
