Summary: | Knowledge creation and management is the central element of the knowledge-based economies that characterize
advanced societies. The transition from the paradigm given by Francis Bacon "Knowledge is power" to "knowledge
sharing and management is power" has shown that isolation does not produce value without sharing it to all the
granular components of the company, in order to be, there, managed both vertically, between the layers of the company
and especially horizontally, distributed, for the efficient management of each final component. The creation of
knowledge is the result of the production and management of information, seen as representations of real events,
produced or predicted, and these, in today's world are eminently related to the digital skills of those who produce and
manage this information. Following the COVID 19 pandemic, there was a turning point in the use of the digital, online,
offline or computational environment in response to pandemic challenges and the lack of these digital skills did not
lead to the predicted and desired developments of the knowledge society. This article aims to show the need for the
evolution of digital skills in the context of knowledge management, starting from digital literacy as the first stage of
digital skills defined by and reaching the strategy imposed by the need for the COVID pandemic 19.
