Abstract
Through education and experience, people
acquire facts, information and familiarity with a
person, a thing, an action or a subject. This is termed
as knowledge. It can be practical (hands on
experience) or theoretical (that we acquire from
books, people etc.). As the famous Greek philosopher,
Plato puts it, "knowledge is the justified true belief".
Knowledge is the power or the fuel that runs the
brain, the engine. Knowledge is a wider concept than
information. As the world is shifting from an industrial
economy based on assembly lines within a country
to wider, global, decentralized, information driven
economy, the importance of knowledge transfer and
its implications are relevant. Any knowledge acquired
from information available, can be vital in one way
or the other for any organization.
