Technique Overview
Knowledge Capital Definition
Knowledge capital (sometimes referred to as intellectual capital) is an intangible asset of organisations. It can exist in two forms: (1) within the minds of those who know something useful that can increase organisational productivity thus taking a form of collective knowledge; (2) as a content, where content is a formal expression of knowledge capital turned into content knowledge capital is more useful for organisations (McGovern and Norton, 2001). The term is also used to bridge the gap between intellectual capital and knowledge management disciplines (Chatzkel, 2003).
