Its a good question, but let me turn it around. Knowledge 'gets' things done. The question becomes, how do we imitate or harness the process.

I've come to the conclusion that (and I'll email mail you a copy in a few days of this stuff, just finishing the formatting) KM is a term that describes how knowledge works. Knowledge management is a descriptive phrase that says: how does the world hold together, and further, how does this dynamic interdependence of opposites that we see functioning in all things 'work'? If we could harness this, like the book Built to Last details by Porras, if we could describe how this subtle process takes place, then we could say "what are the benefits of KM".

Its really quite simple when its comes down to it, on an individual level. Its a trinity, I call primal expression, primal nutrition and primal spirit. That is the essence of KM.
