Abstract
Factors affecting knowledge sharing behavior of lecturers: The case of public universities
Highlights
By using the analysis of survey data obtained from lecturers of public universities in Ho Chi Minh City, we have identified and estimated the influence of the factors: (i) Trusts (NT), (ii) reward systems (KT), (ii) teamwork (LVN), (iv) Communication with colleagues (DN), (v) the scale of the support of senior management (QL), (vi) Information technology (CN) and (vii) Engagement (GK) on knowledge sharing activities among lecturers
Trust plays an important role in social relationships, rather than in economic transactions (Bartol & Srivastava, 2002)
Long-term rewards such as profit sharing or other options are seen as an effective means of promoting knowledge sharing compared to other short-term incentives
Summary
Davenport and Prusak (1998) defined knowledge as a collection of experiences, values, information and insights that can help someone assess and gain new experiences and information. Knowledge sharing is defined as the exchange of knowledge (skills, experience, and understanding) between individuals in an organization. Knowledge management is any process of creating, acquiring, receiving, sharing, and using knowledge anywhere to enhance learning and working efficiency in organizations. It is the process of managing and promoting an organization's knowledge (Armstrong, 2009; Sadq, 2020). Grant (1996) argued that knowledge is the most important resource the organization possesses. In order to gain in-depth understanding of a teacher's knowledge sharing it is necessary to find out which factors influence their knowledge sharing which is the topic of this study
