Adapting Nonaka's SECI Model in Developing Knowledge Management System for UUM's Golf Club

Knowledge is an asset that can determine the successfulness of any organizations. It is a combination of information, social interaction, and contextual situation (Gore & Gore, 1999). The objective of this research is to identify the knowledge assets that exist within the UUM's Golf Club (UUMGC), to classify the knowledge acquired during a number of interview and observation sessions into tacit and explicit and finally to propose a Knowledge Management Model for UUMGC by adapting Nonaka's SECl Model. The methodology adapted for this research is the Expert System Development Life Cycle (ESDLC). The result of this research is a Knowledge Management model that can be used not only in UUMMGC but also other organization that have similar background and environment.
