2. ਗਿਆਨ ਕਿਸੇ ਵਿਸ਼ੇਸ਼ ਵਿਸ਼ੇ ਦੀ ਸਮਝ ਦੇ ਅਧਾਰ ਤੇ ਸਿਧਾਂਤਕ ਜਾਂ ਵਿਹਾਰਕ ਹੋ ਸਕਦਾ ਹੈ। ਹੁਨਰ ਅਭਿਆਸ ਅਤੇ ਤਜ਼ਰਬੇ ਰਾਹੀਂ ਸਮੇਂ ਦੇ ਨਾਲ ਵਿਕਸਤ ਯੋਗਤਾਵਾਂ ਹਨ।
3. ਗਿਆਨ ਸਿੱਖਿਆ ਰਾਹੀਂ ਪ੍ਰਾਪਤ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ, ਯਾਨੀ ਸਿੱਖਣਾ। ਦੂਜੇ ਪਾਸੇ, ਹੁਨਰ ਨੂੰ ਇੱਕ ਅਭਿਆਸ ਕੀਤਾ ਵਿਵਹਾਰ ਮੰਨਿਆ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ।

7. ਗਿਆਨ ਇੱਕ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਤੋਂ ਦੂਜੇ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਤੱਕ ਫੈਲ ਸਕਦਾ ਹੈ। ਹੁਨਰਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਸੰਚਾਰਿਤ ਨਹੀਂ ਕੀਤਾ ਜਾ ਸਕਦਾ; ਸਗੋਂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਹਾਸਲ ਕਰ ਲਿਆ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ।

Types of Knowledge

ਉਪਰੋਕਤ ਦਿੱਤੇ ਗਏ ਚਾਰ ਪ੍ਰਕਾਰ ਦੇ ਗਿਆਨ ਤੋਂ ਇਲਾਵਾ ਹੋਰ ਵੀ ਕਈ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੇ ਗਿਆਨ ਹਨ। ਉਹ ਹਨ

  1. ਪੂਰਵ ਗਿਆਨ ਪੂਰਵ ਗਿਆਨ ਨੂੰ ਤੱਥਾਂ ਦੇ ਗਿਆਨ ਵਜੋਂ ਪਰਿਭਾਸ਼ਿਤ ਕੀਤਾ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ। ਸਮੇਂ ਦੇ ਨਾਲ ਇਸ ਨੂੰ ਵਿਕਸਤ ਕਰਨ ਦੀ ਲੋੜ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੈ। ਕੋਈ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਬਾਰੇ ਪੜ੍ਹ ਕੇ ਆਸਾਨੀ ਨਾਲ ਸਿੱਟੇ ਕੱਢ ਸਕਦਾ ਹੈ। ਉਦਾਹਰਨ ਲਈ, ਕੋਈ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਤੁਰੰਤ ਜਾਣਦਾ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਇੱਕ ਪੁਲ ਭਾਰੀ ਟਰੱਕਾਂ ਅਤੇ ਕਾਰਾਂ ਦਾ ਭਾਰ ਲੈ ਸਕਦਾ ਹੈ। ਸਹਿਜੇ ਹੀ ਸਿੱਟੇ ਕੱਢਣ ਦੇ ਗਿਆਨ ਨੂੰ ਪੂਰਵ ਗਿਆਨ ਕਿਹਾ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ।
  2. ਵਿਛੋੜੇ ਹੋਏ ਗਿਆਨ ਨੂੰ ਵਿਛੋੜੇ ਹੋਏ ਗਿਆਨ ਨੂੰ ਗਿਆਨ ਵਜੋਂ ਪਰਿਭਾਸ਼ਿਤ ਕੀਤਾ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ ਜਿਸ ਨੂੰ ਕਿਸੇ ਇੱਕ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਦੁਆਰਾ ਨਹੀਂ ਸਮਝਿਆ ਜਾ ਸਕਦਾ। ਗਿਆਨ ਕਈ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਵੰਡਿਆ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ। ਉਦਾਹਰਨ ਲਈ, ਕੋਈ ਡਾਕਟਰ ਆਮ ਜ਼ੁਕਾਮ, ਖੰਘ, ਜਾਂ ਫਲੂ ਦਾ ਇਲਾਜ ਕਰ ਸਕਦਾ ਹੈ, ਪਰ ਉਹ ਦਿਲ ਨਾਲ ਸਬੰਧਿਤ ਸਰਜਰੀਆਂ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰ ਸਕਦਾ। ਡਾਕਟਰੀ ਵਿਗਿਆਨ ਗਿਆਨ ਦਾ ਇੱਕ ਵਿਸ਼ਾਲ ਅਖਾੜਾ ਹੈ ਅਤੇ ਕਿਸੇ ਇੱਕ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਦੁਆਰਾ ਇਸ ਨੂੰ ਨਹੀਂ ਸਮਝਿਆ ਜਾ ਸਕਦਾ।
  3. ਮਾਹਰ ਗਿਆਨ ਮਾਹਰ ਗਿਆਨ ਨੂੰ ਉਸ ਗਿਆਨ ਵਜੋਂ ਪਰਿਭਾਸ਼ਿਤ ਕੀਤਾ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ ਜੋ ਕਿਸੇ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਕੋਲ ਕਿਸੇ ਵਿਸ਼ੇਸ਼ ਵਿਸ਼ੇ ‘ਤੇ ਮੁਹਾਰਤ ਹੈ। ਮੁਹਾਰਤ ਰੱਖਣ ਵਾਲਾ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਕਾਫ਼ੀ ਗਿਆਨਵਾਨ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ। ਉਦਾਹਰਨ ਲਈ, ਇਤਿਹਾਸ ਦੇ ਪ੍ਰੋਫੈਸਰ ਨੂੰ ਕਈ ਦੇਸ਼ਾਂ ਦੇ ਇਤਿਹਾਸ ਬਾਰੇ ਸਾਰਾ ਗਿਆਨ ਹੋਵੇਗਾ।
  4. ਅਨੁਭਵੀ ਗਿਆਨ ਗਿਆਨ ਜੋ ਗਿਆਨ ਗਿਆਨ ਨੂੰ ਇੰਦਰੀ ਅੰਗਾਂ ਰਾਹੀਂ ਪ੍ਰਾਪਤ ਕੀਤਾ ਗਿਆ ਹੈ, ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਅਨੁਭਵੀ ਗਿਆਨ ਕਿਹਾ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ। ਉਦਾਹਰਨ ਲਈ, ਜ਼ਿਆਦਾਤਰ ਖੋਜ ਕਾਰਜ ਅਨੁਭਵੀ ਹੁੰਦੇ ਹਨ, ਯਾਨੀ, ਇੱਕ ਖੋਜਕਰਤਾ ਜੋ ਵੀ ਦੇਖਦਾ ਹੈ ਜਾਂ ਅਨੁਭਵ ਲਿਖਦਾ ਹੈ।
  5. ਸਪੱਸ਼ਟ ਗਿਆਨ ਸਪੱਸ਼ਟ ਗਿਆਨ ਨੂੰ ਗਿਆਨ ਵਜੋਂ ਪਰਿਭਾਸ਼ਿਤ ਕੀਤਾ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ ਜੋ ਦੂਜੇ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਸਮਝਣਾ ਅਤੇ ਸਮਝਾਉਣਾ ਆਸਾਨ ਹੈ। ਉਦਾਹਰਨ ਲਈ, ਯਾਤਰਾ ਗਾਈਡਾਂ ਜਾਂ ਮੈਨੂਅਲਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਹਰ ਕੋਈ ਸਮਝਦਾ ਹੈ। ਕੋਈ ਵੀ ਆਸਾਨੀ ਨਾਲ ਸਮਝ ਸਕਦਾ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਯਾਤਰਾ ਕਿਵੇਂ ਕਰਨੀ ਹੈ ਜਾਂ ਕਿਸੇ ਵਿਸ਼ੇਸ਼ ਗੈਜੇਟ ਨੂੰ ਕਿਵੇਂ ਸ਼ੁਰੂ ਕਰਨਾ ਹੈ।
  6. ਲਾਜ਼ਮੀ ਗਿਆਨ ਕਾਰਜਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਪ੍ਰਭਾਵਸ਼ਾਲੀ ਢੰਗ ਨਾਲ ਕਰਨ ਦੇ ਗਿਆਨ ਨੂੰ ਲਾਜ਼ਮੀ ਗਿਆਨ ਕਿਹਾ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ। ਇਹ ਮੁੱਢਲੀ ਸਮਝ ਹੈ ਜਿਸ ਰਾਹੀਂ ਕੋਈ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਕੁਝ ਵੀ ਪ੍ਰਾਪਤ ਕਰ ਸਕਦਾ ਹੈ। ਉਦਾਹਰਨ ਲਈ, ਕਾਰੋਬਾਰੀ ਸੰਗਠਨਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ, ਕੰਮ ਪ੍ਰਬੰਧਕਾਂ ਦੁਆਰਾ ਕੀਤੇ ਜਾਂਦੇ ਹਨ ਜੋ ਸੰਗਠਨ ਨੂੰ ਸੁਚਾਰੂ ਢੰਗ ਨਾਲ ਚਲਾਉਣਾ ਯਕੀਨੀ ਬਣਾਉਂਦੇ ਹਨ।

ਇਸ ਲਈ, ਇਹ ਗਿਆਨ ਦੀਆਂ ਕੁਝ ਕਿਸਮਾਂ ਹਨ। ਹੋਰ ਵੀ ਕਈ ਮਹੱਤਵਪੂਰਨ ਕਿਸਮਾਂ ਹਨ ਜਿਵੇਂ ਵਰਣਨਾਤਮਕ ਗਿਆਨ, ਸਥਿਤ ਗਿਆਨ, ਮੈਟਾ-ਗਿਆਨ ਆਦਿ। ਹੁਣ, ਆਓ ਕੁਝ ਕਿਸਮਾਂ ਦੇ ਹੁਨਰਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਵੇਖੀਏ।

Types of Skills

ਜੀਵਨ ਦੇ ਹਰ ਖੇਤਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਹੁਨਰਾਂ ਦੀ ਲੋੜ ਹੁੰਦੀ ਹੈ। ਇਸ ਲਈ, ਮੈਦਾਨ ਦੇ ਆਧਾਰ ‘ਤੇ ਕੁਝ ਹੁਨਰ ਹਾਸਲ ਕਰਨਾ ਜ਼ਰੂਰੀ ਹੈ ਜਿਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਜਾਣ ਲਈ ਤਿਆਰ ਹੈ। ਹੁਨਰਾਂ ਦੀਆਂ ਕਿਸਮਾਂ ਹੇਠਾਂ ਸੂਚੀਬੱਧ ਹਨ।

  1. ਵਪਾਰਕ ਜਾਗਰੂਕਤਾ ਵਪਾਰਕ ਜਾਗਰੂਕਤਾ ਇਹ ਜਾਣਨ ਦੀ ਪ੍ਰਕਿਰਿਆ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਕੋਈ ਵਿਸ਼ੇਸ਼ ਕਾਰੋਬਾਰ ਜਾਂ ਕੰਪਨੀ ਕਿਵੇਂ ਕੰਮ ਕਰਦੀ ਹੈ।
  2. ਸੰਚਾਰ ਸੰਚਾਰ ਇੱਕ ਜ਼ਰੂਰੀ ਹੁਨਰ ਹੈ ਜੋ ਹਰ ਖੇਤਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਲੋੜੀਂਦਾ ਹੈ। ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਨੂੰ ਸਪੱਸ਼ਟ, ਸੰਖੇਪ, ਕੇਂਦ੍ਰਿਤ ਅਤੇ ਦ੍ਰਿੜ ਹੋਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ।
  3. ਟੀਮ ਵਰਕ ਇੱਕ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਜੋ ਟੀਮ ਦੇ ਅੰਦਰ ਕੁਸ਼ਲਤਾ ਨਾਲ ਕੰਮ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ, ਕੰਪਨੀ ਲਈ ਮੁਨਾਫਾ ਕਮਾਉਣ ਲਈ ਪਾਬੰਦ ਹੈ। ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਲਾਜ਼ਮੀ ਤੌਰ ‘ਤੇ ਟੀਮ ਦਾ ਖਿਡਾਰੀ ਹੋਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ, ਯਾਨੀ, ਉਸਨੂੰ ਕੰਪਨੀ ਦੇ ਟੀਚਿਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਪ੍ਰਾਪਤ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ ਕਾਫ਼ੀ ਯੋਗਦਾਨ ਪਾਉਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ।
  4. ਗੱਲਬਾਤ ਅਤੇ ਪ੍ਰੇਰਣਾ ਕਿਸੇ ਨੂੰ ਵੀ ਮਨਾਉਣ ਲਈ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਨੂੰ ਕਾਫ਼ੀ ਚੁਸਤ ਹੋਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ ਤਾਂ ਜੋ ਕੰਪਨੀ ਅਤੇ ਕਰਮਚਾਰੀ ਦੋਵੇਂ ਜੋ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੇ ਹਨ ਉਹ ਪ੍ਰਾਪਤ ਕਰਨ ਦੇ ਯੋਗ ਹੋਣ।
  5. ਲੀਡਰਸ਼ਿਪ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਨੂੰ ਲੀਡਰਸ਼ਿਪ ਹੁਨਰ ਪ੍ਰਾਪਤ ਕਰਨੇ ਚਾਹੀਦੇ ਹਨ, ਯਾਨੀ, ਕਿਸੇ ਨੂੰ ਆਪਣੇ ਸਾਥੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਸੌਂਪੇ ਗਏ ਕਿਸੇ ਵਿਸ਼ੇਸ਼ ਟੀਚੇ/ਕੰਮ ਤੱਕ ਪਹੁੰਚਣ ਲਈ ਪ੍ਰੇਰਿਤ ਕਰਨ ਅਤੇ ਪ੍ਰੇਰਿਤ ਕਰਨ ਦੇ ਯੋਗ ਹੋਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ।
  6. ਦਬਾਅ ਹੇਠ ਕੰਮ ਕਰਨ ਦੀ ਯੋਗਤਾ ਜਦੋਂ ਕੰਮ ਦਾ ਬੋਝ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ ਤਾਂ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਨੂੰ ਸ਼ਾਂਤ ਰਹਿਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ ਅਤੇ ਉਸਨੂੰ ਦੁਖੀ ਜਾਂ ਨਿਰਾਸ਼ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੋਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ।
  7. ਆਤਮ-ਵਿਸ਼ਵਾਸ ਇੱਕ ਵੱਡਾ ਹੁਨਰ ਜੋ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਕੋਲ ਹੋਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ ਉਹ ਹੈ ਵਿਸ਼ਵਾਸ। ਪਰ, ਇਹ ਨੋਟ ਕਰਨਾ ਮਹੱਤਵਪੂਰਨ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਵਿਸ਼ਵਾਸ ਅਤੇ ਹੰਕਾਰ ਵਿਚਕਾਰ ਇੱਕ ਵਧੀਆ ਰੇਖਾ ਹੈ। ਉਸ ਦੇ ਭਾਸ਼ਣ ਜਾਂ ਕੰਮ ਵਿਚ ਕਿਸੇ ਨੂੰ ਹੰਕਾਰੀ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੋਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ। ਕਿਸੇ ਨੂੰ ਆਪਣੀ ਪਹੁੰਚ ਵਿੱਚ ਨਿਮਰ ਅਤੇ ਆਤਮ-ਵਿਸ਼ਵਾਸੀ ਹੋਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ।

ਇਸ ਲਈ, ਇਹ ਕੁਝ ਕਿਸਮਾਂ ਦੇ ਹੁਨਰ ਹਨ ਜੋ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਪ੍ਰਾਪਤ ਕਰਨੇ ਚਾਹੀਦੇ ਹਨ। ਗਿਆਨ ਅਤੇ ਹੁਨਰ ਦੋਵੇਂ ਸਿੱਖਣ ਅਤੇ ਅਭਿਆਸ ਰਾਹੀਂ ਕਿਸੇ ਵਿਅਕਤੀ ਦੁਆਰਾ ਆਤਮ-ਸਾਮਹੁੰਦੇ ਹਨ। ਇਸ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ, ਕੈਰੀਅਰ ਦੇ ਵਿਕਾਸ ਲਈ ਗਿਆਨ ਅਤੇ ਹੁਨਰ ਜ਼ਰੂਰੀ ਹਨ।
