A knowledge worker is a person that has a job that requires them to utilize information gathered and learned over time to complete a task. Knowledge work typically takes years to master and requires a combination of extensive professional experience, exposure and education within a specific field (Henard, D. H., & McFadyen, M. A. 2008).
