There are products that form the physical form of goods (such as cigarettes, cell phone, or motorcycle), and shaped adapula services, such savings services, telecommunications services, or services and spa body treatments.
In the product concept, we know the premium product or products that have differentiated, unique features, and classy, which deserve a more expensive price. Examples: BMW, Porsche, Gucci watches, Giani Versace tie or Fujitsu laptop. On the other hand, there is the concept of me too products, ie products that are designed to be the imitator of the first products into the market and success.

From this evolved the term knowledge management as an important and strategic part in the management of human resources at the company / organization.

This also means that the comparative advantage of Natural Resources based in the business of shifting the competitive advantage based on the quality of human resources, and in this context that knowledge becomes a very important asset in the management / human resource management.

Knowledge, according to Davenport is a liquid mixture of experience, values, contextual information, and expertise that provide the framework for assessing thinking and integrate experiences and new information. This means that knowledge is different from the information, so information in case of knowledge processes such as benchmarking, consequences, linking, and conversation.
