# Meta-functional Expertise | | **Meta-functional Expertise** is the breadth of one’s strategically important knowledge. It differs from the traditional conceptualization of expertise, which is generally considered to be a great depth of knowledge in a defined area, and where thus experts are people who are distinguished as knowing a lot about a particular subject. Comparatively, a meta-functional expert is considered to be somewhat knowledgeable in many different areas but not necessarily an expert in any single domain. | |-|-| | | wikipedia:: [Meta-functional expertise](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meta-functional_expertise) |
