</p><p>The most significant difficulties exist with separating the terms knowledge transfer and <a href="Knowledge_sharing" title="Knowledge sharing">knowledge sharing</a>.

<p>During the first years after its reemergence, the notion of Knowledge transfer was usually treated in line with the notion of the knowledge-based theory of the firm.<sup id="cite_ref-46" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-46"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>46<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-47" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-47"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>47<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> One of the most commonly cited authors here was Szulanski, who in numerous books and articles had developed the notion of knowledge transfer, especially regarding intra-firm knowledge.

How well knowledge about best practices remains broadly accessible within a firm depends upon the nature of that knowledge, from where (or whom) it comes, who gets it, and the organizational context within which any transfer occurs. "Stickiness" is a metaphor that comes from the difficulty of circulating fluid around an oil refinery (including effects of the fluid's native viscosity). It is worth noting that his analysis does not apply to scientific theories, where a different set of dynamics and rewards apply.<sup id="cite_ref-Szulanski_1996_48-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Szulanski_1996-48"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>48<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>Translation of knowledge implies the decontextualization and contextualization of knowledge which the entity possess in explicit and tacit forms (also see the Section "<a href="#Overview">Overview</a>"). <a href="Explicit_knowledge" title="Explicit knowledge">Explicit knowledge</a> is an awareness of facts or skills that can be readily articulated, conceptualized, codified, formalized, stored and accessed.

<p>The transfer of knowledge can be viewed as the transmission of a chain of small, interchangeable, semantic units.

<p>Communication studies systematize our understanding of the communication process by introducing <a href="Models_of_communication" title="Models of communication">models of communication</a> that describe different modalities of message exchange (see also the section "Overview"). In the case of explicit knowledge, all models are reduced to the simple scheme. A source (a sender in terms of communication studies) encodes information as a message and sends it to the recipient (a receiver) through a channel. The recipient needs to decode the message to understand the initial idea and provides some form of feedback. In both cases, the third player is the noise that may interfere and distort the message.<sup id="cite_ref-65" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-65"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>65<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The two modes of knowledge transfer – the linear (a unidirectional process) and non-linear (a multi-directional) – encompass a set of different configurations of models.
</p>
<p>For instance, according to Sailer and colleagues (2021), based on the number of sources and recipients, all types of knowledge transfer can be reduced to 3 subtypes, namely: linear, divergent, and convergent. Linear knowledge transfer occurs when there is one source and one recipient (e.g. when one person explains a specific topic to someone else). Divergent knowledge transfer occurs when there is one source and multiple recipients (e.g. when a team leader outlines specific tasks for the team). Convergent knowledge transfer occurs when one recipient acquires information from different sources. A typical example of convergent knowledge transfer is when a patient receives information about a condition from several doctors. Convergent knowledge transfer is especially efficient in producing in-depth knowledge of a specific topic.<sup id="cite_ref-:1_64-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:1-64"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>64<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

Knowledge transfer thus becomes a rare, valuable, imperfectly imitable and also non-substitutable strategic axis for organizations.<sup id="cite_ref-Shu-HsienLiao_2007_76-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Shu-HsienLiao_2007-76"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>76<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Moreover, according to the knowledge-based vision (KBV), the more knowledge an organization has, the more it will be able to learn new knowledge, so the competitive advantage based on knowledge will be sustainable over time.<sup id="cite_ref-77" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-77"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>77<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>In organizations, knowledge is regularly passed on by employees to each other. Subsequently, organization resources are increased and/or updated, which allows employees to improve and adjust their practices.<sup id="cite_ref-Shu-HsienLiao_2007_76-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Shu-HsienLiao_2007-76"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>76<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-78" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-78"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>78<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The acquisition of skills by employees is closely linked to the organization's performance, which is mainly the result of the skills accumulated and put into practice by employees.<sup id="cite_ref-79" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-79"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>79<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>One of the remarkable effects of knowledge transfer is the increase in profits and the development of competitive advantage. In a few words, a competitive advantage is the possibility for an organization to strengthen its core competencies by using knowledge from outside. For this, three elements have been defined to measure it:<sup id="cite_ref-Shu-HsienLiao_2007_76-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Shu-HsienLiao_2007-76"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>76<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p>
<ul><li>Knowledge transfer contributes to the development of research and development capabilities;</li>
<li>Knowledge transfer provides the opportunity to replace old technologies with new ones;</li>
<li>Knowledge transfer contributes to reducing research and development time.</li></ul>
<p>These three elements are possible when the organization possesses skills that are equal to or superior to those of its competitors, which allows it to gain a competitive advantage. In these situations, the transfer of knowledge acts on the evolution and in particular on the development of the basic knowledge already acquired by the organization. This acquisition manifests itself in the improvement of the organization's performance and therefore in the gain of a competitive advantage.<sup id="cite_ref-80" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-80"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>80<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>By knowledge transfer in <a href="Landscape_ecology" title="Landscape ecology">landscape ecology</a>, means a group of activities that increase the understanding of landscape ecology with the goal of encouraging application of this knowledge. Five factors will influence knowledge transfer from the view of forest landscape ecology: the generation of research capacity, the potential for application, the users of the knowledge, the infrastructure capacity, and the process by which knowledge is transferred (Turner, 2006).

<ul><li><b>Knowledge management systems</b> (<b>KMS</b>) are computer-based systems designed to assist organizations with managing knowledge related actions. This usually involves for example: document administration, cooperation or social networking. Some of the most commonly used knowledge management systems are <a href="Microsoft_SharePoint" class="mw-redirect" title="Microsoft SharePoint">Microsoft SharePoint</a>, <a href="Confluence" title="Confluence">Confluence</a> and Documentum.<sup id="cite_ref-86" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-86"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>86<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-87" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-87"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>87<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li>
<li><b>Learning management systems</b> (<b>LMS</b>) are software applications, which aid with management, delivery and inspection of educational courses and training programs. They can be used in workplaces to back online or combined learning and trace learning outcomes. Among these systems are <a href="Blackboard_Learn" title="Blackboard Learn">Blackboard</a> or <a href="Moodle" title="Moodle">Moodle</a>, although companies may use different systems such as <a href="Google_Classroom" title="Google Classroom">Google Classroom</a>, <a href="Second_Life" title="Second Life">Second Life</a>, <a href="Edmondo" title="Edmondo">Edmondo</a> or others, if they are correctly adapted for the needs of the company.<sup id="cite_ref-88" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-88"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>88<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-89" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-89"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>89<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li>
<li><b>Enterprise social networks</b> (<b>ESN</b>) refer to specific social media platforms explicitly designed for usage within organizations. These platforms usually involve features such as instant, direct messaging and file sharing. ESNs are widely considered a form of knowledge management technology to gather their collective intelligence and improve productivity. Commonly used platforms are Microsoft Teams, Yammer or Slack.<sup id="cite_ref-90" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-90"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>90<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-91" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-91"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>91<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li>
<li><b>Video conferencing tools</b> have become increasingly popular as a tool to simplify knowledge transfer. The growth in popularity of video conferencing is mainly due to growing trend of remote work and online learning. The value of video conferencing for knowledge transfer comes from instantaneous communication, cooperation and feedback between team members. The usage of video conferencing tools is usually accompanied by the usage of other previously mentioned knowledge transfer platforms. Among these platforms belong <a href="Zoom_(software)" title="Zoom (software)">Zoom</a>, <a href="Microsoft_Teams" title="Microsoft Teams">Microsoft Teams</a>, <a href="Google_Meet" title="Google Meet">Google Meet</a>, <a href="Skype" title="Skype">Skype</a>, <a href="Cisco_Webex" class="mw-redirect" title="Cisco Webex">Cisco Webex</a> and others.<sup id="cite_ref-92" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-92"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>92<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-93" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-93"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>93<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li>
<li><b>Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) platforms</b> have been found to be effective due to their potential to create engaging experiences. These technologies allow real-world scenario simulations and interaction with digital objects. The engaging way in which these processes are conducted has been found to lead to improved work and learning outcomes. The usage of VR and AR is enabled by VR and AR headsets. <a href="Oculus_Quest_2" class="mw-redirect" title="Oculus Quest 2">Oculus Quest 2</a>, <a href="Microsoft_HoloLens" title="Microsoft HoloLens">Microsoft HoloLens</a>, <a href="Google_Glass" title="Google Glass">Google Glass</a> and <a href="ZSpace_(company)" title="ZSpace (company)">ZSpace</a> are all among the examples for <a href="Virtual_reality" title="Virtual reality">virtual</a> and <a href="Augmented_reality" title="Augmented reality">augmented reality</a> headsets.

<p>Knowledge transfer is often used as a synonym for <a href="Training" title="Training">training</a>. Furthermore, <a href="Information" title="Information">information</a> should not be confused with knowledge, nor is it, strictly speaking, possible to "transfer" experiential knowledge to other people.<sup id="cite_ref-Stake_2005_102-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Stake_2005-102"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>102<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Information might be thought of as <a href="Facts" class="mw-redirect" title="Facts">facts</a> or understood <a href="Data" title="Data">data</a>; however, knowledge has to do with flexible and adaptable <a href="Skills" class="mw-redirect" title="Skills">skills</a> – a person's unique ability to wield and apply information. This fluency of application is in part what differentiates information from knowledge. Knowledge tends to be both tacit and personal; the knowledge one person has is difficult to <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/quantify" class="extiw external" title="wikt:quantify">quantify</a>, store, and retrieve for someone else to use.
</p><p>Knowledge transfer (KT) and <a href="Knowledge_sharing" title="Knowledge sharing">knowledge sharing</a> (KS) are sometimes used interchangeably or are considered to share common features. Since some knowledge management researchers assume that these two concepts are rather similar and have overlapping content, there is often confusion, especially among researchers and practitioners, about what a certain concept means.
