How can knowledge sharing and creation enhance our personal innovative capabilities?

"Knowledge sharing enables me to share what I know that others do not with them. At the same time, this would mean other people will be able share their tacit knowledge with me through externalization. I see this as a two-way form of enhancing personal innovation capabilities whereby both parties benefit; by acquiring new set of skills and knowledge and by learning from past experiences or mistakes encountered by others. This would in turn lead to new knowledge being created. One would be better able to tackle an issue with ease after gaining new insights on it. This increases competencies and enhance personal innovative capabilities."


"Knowledge sharing and creation enhances both the quantity and quality of one’s existing knowledge base. Thus, increases one’s ability to recombine existing knowledge in novel ways. Knowledge sharing and creation also widens one’s field of knowledge. This increases one’s capacity to think out the box by providing one with a more diverse range of knowledge from which to combine and create innovations."
