1. 1 The SECI model in the Knowledge Management Nasipaniy Vitaliy, Chief specialist of International Relations Department

2. 2 The model from Nonaka and Takeuchi is based on Polanyi’s distinction between tacit and explicit knowledge (1983) and provides an understanding of knowledge creation and management from a Japanese business culture perspective. Ikujiro Nonaka and Hirotaka Takeuchi propose a model of the knowledge creating process to understand the dynamic nature of knowledge creation, and to manage such a process effectively: the SECI model. It consist of 3 elements: SECI Ba Knowledge Assets

3. 3 SECI, Ba, Knowledge Assets These 3 elements interact with each other organically and dynamically. The knowledge assets of an organization are mobilized and shared in ‘Ba’ whereas the tacit knowledge held by individuals is converted and amplified by the spiral of knowledge through:  Socialization  Externalization  Combination  Internalization

8. 8 Advantages of SECI  Appreciates the dynamic nature of knowledge and knowledge creation.  Provides a framework for management of the relevant processes. Disadvantage of SECI  It is based on a study of Japanese organizations, which heavily rely on tacit knowledge: employees are often with a company for life.  The linearity of the concept: can the spiral jump steps? Can it go counter-clockwise?
