| Abstract: | This paper aims to provide theoretical insights into a problem of knowledge (herein as: knwl.) management (KM). Through reflecting on the impact of subjectivity in knwl. production, the object-subject divide is analyzed. It is shown how mind sets (here as: m-s.) affect the transformation of information and signals into knwl. It is also shown how the m-s. may vary according to individual and cultural parameters. Thus, any kind of diversity (as: div-ty.) finds its expression in cognitive div-ty. and finally in knwl. div-ty. The probability of misunderstanding increases the overlap of individual m-s. Despite possible sophisticated technologies supporting KM, the knwl. product by itself can neither be managed nor effectively controlled. |
