当今产品和服务开发所需的技能和流程的复杂性要求管理者在创新过程中关注隐性知识的作用。人们身体和头脑中保存的知识，即我们未明确表达的知识，是创造力的基础，不容易捕获或编纂。创新的过程既是探索又是综合。本文探讨了管理者可以开始处理隐性知识的方法；如何为发散过程创造一个环境，其中包括广泛而健康的想法扩散和成功的趋同过程，在这个过程中缩小选择范围并决定和实施解决方案。
The complexity of skills and processes needed in the development of today's products and services requires that managers attend to the role of tacit knowledge during innovation. Knowledge held in people's bodies and heads, our unarticulated knowledge, is the very basis of creativity and is not easily captured nor codified. The process of innovation is both an exploration and synthesis. This article examines ways in which managers can begin to deal with tacit knowledge; how to create an environment for a divergent process that includes a wide and healthy proliferation of ideas and a successful convergent process in which options are narrowed and a solution is decided upon and implemented.
