Knowledge cannot be managed. It is an embodied experience. Truly well articulated by the following quote:
KM is not a profession. Do not pretend it ever will become a profession. That is dumb. Monolithic KM certification is silly. KM 'are' behaviors, methods, techniques, models, tools, etc. only. The best KM is inculcated into every waking moment of business professionals’ lives. It is not some dopey department, person, tool, or certificate. Again, this inane perception makes KM a laughingstock. You can't 'KM' something or someone.
