Hi Bob,

From what I understand of KM and IC, knowledge management is more of an integrative process, while IC is more of a cumulative process. In other words, we manage knowledge by synthesizing disparate elements, ideas etc to create more concise ones, while with intellectual capital, we assign $ values to intellectual assets, be them human or technological, then add up the values to arrive at some IC total.

The reason I mention this is, I'm trying to see how integration takes place between know-how, know-what, and know-when & where. On a basic level, we have integral elements like individual/group which account for a lot of corporate knowledge create. Know-how represents the individual knowledge worker, while know-what is the knowledge available throughtout the group. The strategy or where/when are a lot like space/time elements. As we know, space-time is a relative phenomena, which as a strategy might account for a deeper understanding into KM. Perhaps Strategy is the medium we all operate in, but by better understanding it, we can better faciliate the KM process?
