An Investigation Of The Interaction Between Organizational Culture And Knowledge Sharing Through Socialization: A Multi-Level Perspective, Ali Baker
CCE Theses and Dissertations
Knowledge management (KM) has been determined by many researchers as one of the most important domains within the information systems (IS) field, and knowledge sharing (KS) has been identified as the most vital component of KM. Lack of KS within organizations has been approached from many perspectives. One perspective that has been outlined in recent studies is the organizational culture (OC) perspective, which examines the interaction between OC and KS behaviors. Although research has been conducted on OC and KS, the findings of recent studies have been contradictory. These conflicts were due to the different operationalization of KS. The purpose …
A Knowledge Management System (Kms) Using A Storytelling-Based Approach To Collect Tacit Knowledge, Nicholas Shaw
A Knowledge Management System (Kms) Using A Storytelling-Based Approach To Collect Tacit Knowledge, Nicholas Shaw
CCE Theses and Dissertations
Since the 1990s, Knowledge Management Systems (KMS) have been largely unsuccessful in the collection of tacit knowledge. The process, whether through direct input by the holder of the tacit knowledge or through an intermediary such as the collection of tacit knowledge through interviews and videos, has not succeeded. Reasons encompass the organizational (such as culture of the organization), the technological (example: poor tools), and the individual (example: knowledge is power, i.e. where experts with rare knowledge results in knowledge hoarding instead of transfer). The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that tacit knowledge could be successfully and consistently collected …
Multidimensional Knowledge Flow Dynamics In Context, Lina Lo
Multidimensional Knowledge Flow Dynamics In Context, Lina Lo
CCE Theses and Dissertations
Knowledge is a sustainable advantage and knowledge assets can increase value with use. A snowball effect of knowledge advantage advocates effective knowledge management and fosters its continual growth as it flows. Knowledge, however, flows unevenly throughout an organization and the problem is that the fundamental dynamics of these flows are still not well characterized in theoretical and computational models. This study built on existing work—knowledge-flow theory, need knowledge generation, and the critical success factors for enterprise resource planning implementation—to examine the multidimensional knowledge-flow phenomenon in context, and used the case study methodology for knowledge-flow theory building. The research question was …
