Editor's Notes
- #4: I suggest to look at (knowledge) work as shaped by at least three different contexts : personal (me as a human being), social (my networks and communities) and organisational (a company I work for). However, in this context personal has to be distinguished from individual and private : Individual means ‘not social’, while I find it important to focus on ‘me’ which has both sides. Knowledge work is a result of individual drawing on social. Private (when you talk about it in a work context) is usually perceived as ‘not work-related’, while knowledge work doesn't stop when a knowledge worker goes home.
