In cases like the Toyota Prius, it is clearly shown that
tacit knowledge is shared and converted into explicit
knowledge in the ba that drive exploratory activities to
create knowledge for innovation (exploration ba), and explicit knowledge is combined and embodied in individuals
through personal experiences in the ba that drive exploitative activities (exploitation ba) such as developing a commercial product and/or carrying out upgrades and
improvements. In short, the level of tacit knowledge is
high in exploration ba, while explicit knowledge is high
in exploitation ba.
