Jefferey,

It was nice of you to appreciate and patiently comment on my posting. To my clarification and elucidation, I have come up with an example from economics to understand the real spirit of Value and Success.

In an economic theory, we assume that values of products/Services change when the following change:
- Ownership
- Place
- Fashion
- Season
- Others

Three factions are involved in this example for maneuvering the transfer of Knowledge (subject of transaction). An individual with Tacit Knowledge was wandering without attracting much attention from anyone for his education, expertise, skills etc, until a second faction (Broker/Agent) comes across the first one (Owner). The Broker believes that the Owner could be useful to a third party (Transferee) who will be willing to high-price the owner. And it happens after some processes are completed.

I sat down to write three parties in this process of transferring: Owner--->Manager/ Broker/ Agent/KM/--->Transferee. Now here are my questions, please:

Who is successful and who has the value? Who was successful, and who had a certain value before the process began?

Thank you very much
TMalik
