Knowledge Transfer

Knowledge Transfer:
Nancy Dixon in her book explained Common knowledge as the organization’s most important knowledge. It is the knowledge asset that makes it competitive in the marketplace. It is knowledge the organization creates from the experience of carrying out its own tasks and projects. It is unique to that organization
Nancy postulated five theories on knowledge transfer: 
Serial transfer: when the same team executing a task in a new context(setting), with a prior knowledge that was gained from doing the same task in a different setting.

Near transfer: Explicit knowledge transfer from a source team to a receiving team with a similar task in a similar context

Far transfer: Tacit knowledge transfer from a source team to a receiver team with a non-routine task.

Strategic transfer: the transfer of complex knowledge from one team to the other, separated in place and time, the task is of strategic interest to the organisation)

Expert transfer: the transfer of explicit knowledge from a team to  the other about a task not performed on a regular basis.
