- knowledge is information focused on [results
Drucker, in his book “postcapitalist society,” wrote: “Knowledge must be Proof by Action that it is knowledge. What we call knowledge today is information for action, information focused on results.” He said. For example, if it is a programming concept, will understanding it increase the quality of the programs you write or not? Will it increase your productivity in writing programs? This is important. - Knowledge, Capitalism and the Technologist Condition
In his book “Post-Capitalist Society,” social ecologist Peter Drucker said of knowledge: “What is now considered knowledge must be proved by action. What is now considered knowledge must be proven by action to be knowledge. What we call knowledge today is information for action, information focused on outcomes.” In other words, the idea is that knowledge is closely tied to action and its outcomes. Knowledge should not be separated from action. We must confirm whether the knowledge is useful or not by actually taking action using the knowledge and seeing the results of that action. Knowledge and learning should not be “academic gossip”. - What is Learning? Engineered Thinking and Principles
consideration - What is the “outcome” of “outcome-focused information?”
orthographical variants - Results-focused information - Results-focused knowledge
