A process of social learning where a group of people who share an interest, a concern, a set of problems, or a passion about a topic, collaborate to share ideas, find solutions, and build innovations without necessarily being in a formal work meeting. CoP members are bounded one another through exposure to a common class of problems, common pursuit of solutions, and embodying a store of knowledge, by shared practices and common beliefs. Community of practice generally cut across organizational boundaries and helps create and share knowledge. It is the best way to :
