By philosophical analysis, This paper represents the hierarchy of knowledge and social features of knowledge management(KM) and reveals that tacit knowledge is a kind of action-inherent knowledge or action-constructive knowledge, so it contains a lot of active elements’ participation in the acquisition and transfer process of knowledge; “learn by doing” is related to tacit knowledge, management science of KM and cognitive science is connected; in the dimension of sociology, SECI model is investigated in details by a new approach of social ecology of KM.
