Explicit knowledge is that which an individual can express or represent relatively effectively. While knowledge resides most richly within people, some knowledge can be made explicit, becoming represented as process descriptions, lessons, coaching, etc. Knowledge that has been turned into signals such as these is, I would argue, information. However, from the perspective of the person with the knowledge who is representing it, it can be called explicit knowledge. He can explain what he knows.
Tacit knowledge is much trickier.
But in other cases, the knowledge is so deep, or it exists as such a tangle of informational, physical, and emotional elements, that outright representation is nearly impossible. Ask someone to express what they know about something in this realm and you may get some vague, disjointed descriptions of many of the elements or, most likely, you will get a sampling of the knowledge which can be made explicit, combined with that person's expression of the emotional, physical, and informational elements they associate with that knowledge. In other words, they will tell you a story. Stories as Idea Wrappers Stories are great vehicles for wrapping together the many elements of knowledge. A good story combines the explicit with the tacit, the information with the emotion.
