There are necessary steps that an organization must take to derive maximum value and growth via digital transformation initiatives and stay relevant in an increasingly innovative world. However, to extract meaningful value out of digital infrastructure, an organization must approach incremental growth by way of optimization and innovation across the business.
Tacit knowledge is the form of implicit knowledge that we rely on for learning. It is invoked in a wide range of intellectual inquiries, from traditional academic subjects to more pragmatically orientated investigations into the nature and transmission of skills and expertise. Notwithstanding its apparent pervasiveness, the notion of tacit knowledge is a complex and puzzling one. What is its status as knowledge? What is its relation to explicit knowledge? What does it mean to say that knowledge is tacit? Can it be measured? Recent years have seen a growing interest from philosophers in understanding the nature of tacit knowledge. Philosophers of science have discussed its role in scientific problem-solving; philosophers of language have been concerned with the speaker's relation to grammatical theories; and phenomenologists have attempted to describe the relation of explicit theoretical knowledge to a background understanding of matters that are taken for granted. This book seeks to bring a unity to these diverse philosophical discussions by clarifying their conceptual underpinnings. In addition the book advances a specific account of tacit knowledge that elucidates the importance of the concept for understanding the character of human cognition, and demonstrates the relevance of the recommended account to those concerned with the communication of expertise. The book will be of interest to philosophers of language, epistemologists, cognitive psychologists and students of theoretical linguistics.
We have been having a series of interesting discussions lately on various aspects of the economy and markets. I notice that some traders have a hard time discerning between different aspects of the intelligence hierarchy.

Personal Knowledge: Towards a Post-Critical Philosophy by Michael Polanyi published by Harper & Row, a First Harper Torchbook edition, 1964 paperback in good used condition, no marking to text "This study, first published in 1958, offers Michael Polanyis' epistemological insights. Polanyi, originally a chemist and chemical physicist, is widely acclaimed for his epistemology which opposes the prevailing positivist approaches. His discussion of tacit knowledge has proved to be influential in many fields from theology to artificial intelligence. Polanyi attests that our personal experiences and ways of sharing knowledge have a profound effect on scientific discovery. He argues against the idea of the wholly dispassionate researcher, pointing out that even in the strictest of sciences, knowing is still an art, and that personal commitment and passion are logically necessary parts of research. In our technological age where fact is split from value and science from humanity, Polanyi’s work continues to advocate for the innate curiosity and scientific leaps of faith that drive our most dazzling ingenuity."

Tacit Knowledge in Organizational Learning
This monograph carries out an in-depth investigation into compositional processes, shedding new light on the components and conditions that constitute artistic agency. Artistic agency relies on the interlocking of such activities that emerge from various propositional and non-propositional (experiential, corporeal, sensory) forms of knowledge - listening, feeling, imagining, trying out, reflecting, noting and correcting, which represents a small selection of the multifaceted composing activities. The book develops an understanding of artistic agency and mastery in its fundamentally social nature, through the important, though largely ignored output of creative compositional processes. Using a mixture of case studies and theoretical frameworks, this book will appeal to sociologists, musicologists, creative studies scholars, and artists, particularly those who teach composition or research on this topic, as well as students of MA- and PhD-level.

Welche Bedeutung haben körperlich-leibliche Interaktion und Kommunikation für soziales Verstehen und Intersubjektivität? Mittels empirischer Forschungen sowie leibphänomenologischer und affizierungstheoretischer Ansätze erschliessen die Beiträge dieses Bandes eine Grundschicht unseres Fremd- und Selbstverstehens - und damit von Sozialität - neu. Ausgehend von Konzepten wie Zwischenleiblichkeit und Embodiment werden Perspektiven aus Philosophie, Kultur- und Sozialwissenschaften, Kognitions- und Bewegungsforschung sowie Praxisfeldern wie Tanz, Musik und Körperpraktiken miteinander verknüpft. Vorgänge des meist implizit bleibenden leibbasierten Verstehens von Bewegung und Emotionen werden so expliziert.
