Knowledge is the power, you have to apply it at the right time in the right circumstance with the right attitude.
Knowledge does not stand still, but needs to be kept realigned, refined to generate values to benefit human societies. Knowledge is power, how can we apply it to generate value, solve problems and convey wisdom?
The gap between knowledge and insight is about the depth of understanding: Knowledge by itself is nothing if you do not understand how to apply it and make it useful for problem-solving. An essential role for knowledge can be taught, but insight is a unique perception which needs to be gained by each individual.
Well-defined principles, in-depth understanding and application practices can guide you in safe use of knowledge power effectively. The specialized generalists with interdisciplinary knowledge are in demand to bridge silos and contribute to cross-functional communication and collaboration because today’s problems often become over complex and interdependent.
The interdisciplinary knowledge domain can have many sides: Often the problems are complex and multifaceted. Rather than thinking outside of one particular box, it’s important to shape a bigger box by making connections between different knowledge boxes: Analogously, the interdisciplinary knowledge domain is like a geodesic shaped box with many faces. Each of them is a strong knowledge domain that you need to dig through to understand issues comprehensively.
There needs to be a better appreciation for problem-solving abilities. Thinking in a bigger-box means knowledge professionals today need to be in a continuous learning mode with interdisciplinary understanding, for challenging existing thoughts, outdated knowledge or conventional understanding, seeking additional knowledge and experience for coming up with better solutions.
Knowledge professionals should develop a growth mindset, accumulating fresh knowledge, and capturing unique insight: Different people use knowledge to do their activities informatively. Knowledge is the first step to gain expert power. Knowledge can, under the right circumstances, allow you to access power for solving problems and building reputation.
Knowledge is the power, you have to apply it at the right time in the right circumstance with the right attitude. The Knowledge-Insight-Wisdom pyramid is an important step in knowledge refinement. Knowledge professionals with intrinsic motivation share their knowledge and keep refreshing their understanding. The more you know, the more opportunities you can apply knowledge to create value, spark innovation and solve problems effectively.
Wisdom is a higher order of knowledge that amounts to the refinement of knowledge coupled with experience. The way to attain wisdom is to have an open mind, be aware of your limitations, learn from your experiences and those of others, learn to see the world from different angles, learn to be confident and humble at the same time and keep improving to generate value coherently.
