Transport and transfer are the wrong metaphors to use for resonant forces that propagate critical skill and passdown through an organization. In the language of experience, I think conduction is a more apt metaphor.

The problem with transfer as a metaphor, in my opinion, is that it puts the emphasis on data and information as the object. The vessel of application and the conduction of the appropriate connection points within an organization matter. Information (data) itself will never perform work. People. Do.
