Abstract

The paper argues that Human Resource (HR) managers cannot be objective, outside observers of the knowledge creation process in a community but, rather, they should become members of the Community of Practice (CoP) in order to identify and understand the community learning style and, in this way, to facilitate the development of Intellectual Capital (IC) within and throughout the organisation. The novelty value of this study is in proposing the concept of 'knowledge creation spaces' and the Sensing-Acting-Feeling-Thinking (SAFT) model. They were developed by drawing on the concept of 'learning space' of Experiential Learning Theory (ELT) and on the concept of 'Ba' of Knowledge Creation Theory (KCT). The proposed framework was empirically tested, based on 241 identified interactions in a specific community.
