Gray's classification [1] recognizes different types of managing knowledge with regards action motivations in two different types of problems. The motivation can either be problem identification or problem solving, and the problem can be either unique/new or previously solved. Combining these in 2*2 matrix shows us four types of KM: (1) Encouraging serendipity, (2) Creating knowledge, (3) Acquiring knowledge, and (4) Raising awareness. Shifting between these ascendingly can be seen as (a) identifying, (b) preserving, and (c) distributing knowledge.
