English abstract

Knowledge is a combination of information, contexts, and experiences. Information Technology organizations will become knowledge centric. They will fundamentally change from eliminating problems to acquiring knowledge. Problem solving processes, decision making processes, and communication processes will change to promote knowledge transfer and acquisition. Technology will be implemented to create and maintain the knowledge base repository. An Intranet and Web software can be the base for this technology. Rewards include the implementation of an ongoing knowledge base repository, more effective decision making, addressing the right problems, a rich source of knowledge that can be applied to work, and the possibility of greater and faster individual growth.
