Nonaka (1994) proposed SECI model that is understandable and has been accepted by many scholars. SECI stands for Socialization, Externalization, Combination, and Internalization. Socialization, Externalization, Combination, and Internalization are four different type of knowledge conversion. The SECI model describes the spiral process of dynamic interaction where knowledge is transferred and subsequently returns as a foundation for individuals and teams, as well as for organizational understanding and development.
First phase: Socialization (tacit to tacit) Socialization is a sharing of knowledge through community interaction. Most knowledge resides in individual’s brain, thus several moves need to be conducted to extract the knowledge from the individual’s mind. People keep their skills and experiences; it will not be shared when no one works on it. Face-to-face communication is an effective way and can be said as the easiest way to collect tacit knowledge, because it engages reciprocal understanding through mental sharing. However, the disadvantage of using this method is that it time consuming. This first phase is an effective method on the creation of
