Data Driven Synthesis |
DDS |

Practical and Applicable Methodology |
A compilation paradigm, rooted in computer science, that uses data compilers and algorithms to automatically generate massive volumes of higher order knowledge and knowledge constructs, directly from data. NOTE: This entire KMBOK web site was built using this theory! |

DIKW |
Uncertain |
Theoretical Concept |
The DIKW pyramid (a.k.a. DIKW hierarchy, wisdom hierarchy, knowledge hierarchy, information hierarchy, and the knowledge pyramid) refers loosely to a class of models for representing purported structural and/or functional relationships between data, information, knowledge, and wisdom. The theory is rooted in the flaw that there is no scientific evidence to support the definitions of core hierarchy elements, such as Information and Knowledge. The origin of the DIKW theory is uncertain. |

T Shaped Managers |
Morten T. HansenBolko von Oetinger |
NO_DATA |
Theoretical Concept |
T-shaped management relies on a new kind of executive who breaks out of the traditional corporate hierarchy and who shares knowledge freely across the organization (the horizontal part of the ÒTÓ) while remaining fiercely committed to individual business unit performance (the vertical part). |

Tacit Versus Explicit Knowledge |
NO_DATA |
Michael Polyani |
Theoretical Concept |
A belief that Explicit Knowledge represents knowledge that is easily transferrable, wherease Tacit Knowledge represents a type of knowledge that is not. While Polyanni is not credited as the originator of this theory, he is one of the first to document attempts to clarify the differences between these two types of knowledge. |

Theory in practice: Increasing professional effectiveness |
NO_DATA |
Chris Argyris and Donald Schon |
Theoretical Concept |
Discusses the concern that the professions are neither effective nor democratic in practice. Professional competence and its acquisition and the redesigning of professional education according to the necessities of competent practice are explored, and it is proposed that competence is based on the ability to develop theories of what to do in new situations and the ability to behave effectively in the practitioner-client relationship. |

Douglas McGregor |
Theoretical Concept |
In his 1960 book, The Human Side of Enterprise, Douglas McGregor proposed two theories by which to view employee motivation. He avoided descriptive labels and simply called the theories Theory X and Theory Y. It is generally accepted that beyond this point, the two theories of management diverge. |
