Abstract

Knowledge is a valuable asset to any organisation especially, the organisation which depend heavily on the utilization of the professional knowledge (tacit and explicit) of its employees. Capturing and representing knowledge are one of the most important task to collect and organise knowledge in order to gain the sustainable competitive advantage. Therefore, this paper aims to capture and represent knowledge in Thai weaving industry. The methodology uses a knowledge map as a tool to capture and represent knowledge. A case study of weaving manufacturing in the social enterprise in Thailand is provided. The results from this research are especially important for the weaving industry in Thailand since weaving is one of the oldest traditions in Thailand and has been an important part of Thai culture. Knowledge mapping is as a starting point to help the weaving industry keep a valuable knowledge and plan for transferring knowledge from older generation to others.
