INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL- organisational knowledge capable of
enhancing profitability and deriving from tacit knowledge,
systems, technologies, processes and databases and the managed
interactions between them.
Geisler (1999) sees experience as fundamental to knowledge
and therefore integral to the intellectual capital of any
organisation so that effective knowledge management systems
are a necessity. He suggests that one means of gathering experience
could be through debriefing and mentoring sessions on both
entry and exit from an organisation.
Of relevance to this topic is the discussion of Intellectual
Amnesia and also Corporate Amnesia. See attached list
of references.

the issue of Intellectual capital and how it can be valued

the valuation of knowledge from those who discuss the valuation
of intellectual capital.
