Hi.,
The SECI model comes out of research in knowledge management, which is related to organizational learning, business administration, and information systems. SECI stands for socialization, externalization, combination, internalization—a model of knowledge creation proposed by Ikujiro Nonaka..
Knowledge creation refers to the continuous combination, transfer, and conversion of different kinds of knowledge. ... Knowledge creation is the formation of new notions and concepts. This occurs through interactions between explicit and tacit knowledge in people's minds.
The applicability of SECI Model in in organization are dependent on organizational capability as whole to create knowledge. this capability can be translated to different factors such Org. structure , Culture, IT tools, employee behavior......etc. the literature in this area is rich in such as factors.
Its important to assess such of these factors in organization in order to determine the applicability of SECI Model.
