I didn't realize it, but I had put in place a process that really defines what a knowledge-intensive entity would look like. The GKA is structured entirely differently than other entities - even if knowledge is a big factor in productivity. I think this is because other entities simply tack-on a knowledge component to an industrial model of organization. That is, our goal has become the proper conceptualization of knowledge rather than some specific task. The ultimate value of anything we produce is in our ability to conceptualize it right.
Conceptualization requires a process.
The process is highly fluid and flexible. It is reflective. We only seem to be able to define the next step - never the final goal. And, the final goal keeps changing. We now know that we must build community networks which will feed the center.
