A Gestão do Conhecimento holística e a aderência do modelo Fivaz e Pretorius

Abstract

Knowledge Management is currently based on the reductionist paradigm. However, it is urgent to move forward and follow the holistic paradigm’s precepts, a scientific gap that has not been fulfilled yet. In this sense, this research adjusts knowledge management in light of the holistic paradigm, in order to elucidate the goal of the former through this scientific standard. Based on this rationale, this research aims to analyze the adherence of the Fivaz and Pretorius model to the holistic knowledge management, in order to identify if a model with this scale was reached. The methodological procedures adopted for the examination of such model are Content Analysis with a qualitative approach and percentage quantification. We concluded that the analyzed model adheres partially to the precepts of the holistic knowledge management, allowing to infer that the indicated gap still remains. The analysis of other models following the methodological delineations developed in this research, is an opportunity for future investigations.
