External Influences In Inter-Organisational Knowledge Sharing, Rosemary A. Van Der Meer

Faculty of Business - Papers (Archive)

Inter-organisational knowledge sharing is affected by many influences, both internal and external to the collaborative group. This is particularly so in government-industry collaborations where there is increased external stakeholder engagement and complex socio-political issues. While there has been research on the individual and organisational influences on knowledge sharing in the inter-organisational domain, there has been little examination of the external influences that are beyond the control of the collaborative group. This research uses the themes identified in the Environment Influences component of Holsapple and Joshi's Threefold Knowledge Management framework, to examine the external knowledge sharing influences on three government-industry knowledge …

This paper reports on how decision-makers' personal characteristics and organisational characteristics can influence the screening of immigrant professionals during the recruitment and selection process. The sample consisted of 220 decision-makers in the engineering industry working in New South Wales, Australia. The results show White/Anglo Australian decision-makers had more suitability concerns of ethnic migrant candidates during the recruitment and selection process than decision-makers of other ethnicities. However, this was moderated by organisational characteristics of size and clientele. Decision-makers in larger organisations and a diverse ethnic client base showed less suitability concerns of migrant candidates during the recruitment and selection process.

University of Wollongong in Dubai - Papers

One major means to address corporate sustainability practices in organisations are sustainability-oriented innovation practices, which tend to result in significantly improved products, services, processes or even management systems. Prior research has widely discussed the relevant issues about integrating sustainability aspects into innovation process; however, little empirical research has been conducted to analyse the link between sustainability-oriented innovation practices and the overall organisational performance. This paper addresses this gap by exploring the underlying structure of sustainability-oriented innovation practices as well as their effects on the particular performance dimensions (i.e. economic performance, quality performance, innovation performance, environmental performance and social performance). The …

This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (Intervention). The objectives are as follows: Primary objective: To determine the effectiveness of organisation‐wide interventions to implement person‐centred care for people with dementia, in relation to reduction of behavioural symptoms such as agitation and depression, improvement in quality of life and functional capabilities, alterations in the use of restraint (physical and/or chemical) and reduction in adverse events. Secondary objective: To identify the variety, quality, and feasibility of person‐centred care approaches for people with dementia, with specific reference to organisational factors which promote and constrain the implementation of person‐centred care.
