3. Definition
The knowledge a team has gained from doing its task in one setting is
transferred to the next time that team does the task in a different setting.
There are many ways in which knowledge can be transferred. Serial
transfer is occurring when the same team repeats a task.
transfer is leveraged from one work "team" to a very similar work team
in another similar work setting.
Knowledge is transferred from individual members of the team, to the
team as a whole, i.e., integrated into a commonly–held perception of
what worked. This constitutes the basis of what can then be transferred to
another similar team member or group.

5. Evaluation
 In this way, small items come to the surface
such as the possible delay in getting the
blood from the blood bank to the operating
room. The task is to make small changes to
operating procedure, which is easy to
undertake. To evaluate the whole process
from start to finish and address every issue is
a huge task and not what this is about. In
order to resolve complex problems, it is much
better to make little changes rather than a
complete overhaul. Making little changes is
the answer to complex procedures – not
complete overhaul. It is necessary to repeat
the After Action Review on an informal basis
to keep a check on process.

6. Brainstorming
 Brainstorming is a process of group idea
gathering that stimulates creative
thinking. Group members take turns
throwing out any and all thoughts that
come to mind on a subject while one
person records all the ideas. There are no
right or wrong answers at this stage.
Ideas that may seem to be ridiculous
often are the ones that stimulate the best
ideas in the end. No one is allowed to
criticize any of the ideas. This encourages
a free flow of ideas that often leads to a
better final product than any other
method of idea gathering.

7. Purpose of Brainstorming
Generate a list of problem area
Identify possible consequences
stemming from the problem
being analyzed
 Generate a list of possible
causes of the problem
 Encourage thinking about ways
to eliminate the causes

8. “The source team and the receiving team are
one and the same"
Assist companies in increasing
returns from their component reuse
initiatives. Application development
groups have often been called upon
to install knowledge management
tools and practices for other
departments in their organizations.
Maybe it's time we learn how to use
these tools and practices ourselves.
