Knowledge Maturation & Knowledge Networks in New Product Development: by Dov Te'eni  (Academic)

ABSTRACT >> Knowledge maturation and knowledge sharing have an intimate relationship, one that has its ups and downs, so to speak. This research examines patterns of knowledge maturation in the context of New Product Development at a home-appliances manufacturer. We view knowledge maturation pragmatically as an ensemble of many myopic maturation processes. Each myopic maturation process progresses iteratively from one understanding to another in the local context of applying knowledge to achieve a particular work goal. These knowledge maturation processes are situated and empirically plotted in the product's development lifecycle and in the company's formal and informal networks of knowledge sharing.
