Abstract

The purpose of this study is to identify the impact of knowledge management applications on innovation in Ministry of Planning and International Cooperation in Jordan. Data obtained through a survey questionnaire distributed randomly to a sample of employees from various administrative levels in the ministry. To arrive at statistically significant conclusions, the authors used regression, correlation and Anova test analysis. The results indicate that a statistically significant effect for the impact of knowledge management applications on innovation in their four types (content applications, software and data management applications, smart applications, software and systems of linkage). It also shows that there are no statistically significant differences in innovation that are attributed to demographic variables (gender and age) and job variables (administrative levels and years of experience) at the level of significance (<em>P</em>, 0.05). Since this study was limited to the Ministry of Planning in Jordan, caution must be exercised in generalizing the results from this study to other organizations or sectors. Recommendations: Innovation processes need advanced and appropriate applications of knowledge management in order to improve the quality of administrative performance and to promote motivation ways for employees.

  • The importance of the relationship between innovation and knowledge management applications is due to how these relationships affect the formulation of management strategies

  • The analysis resulted in calculated F=35.961, p=.000 and Beta=0.868, null hypothesis was rejected and the alternate hypothesis was accepted that there is a statistically significant effect of knowledge management all four applications on innovations at the level of significance of 0.05 the relationship is considered strong because r=0.798 and the independent variables explains 63.7% of the change in the dependent variable

  • There is an effect that has a statistical significance at the abstract level (P ≤ 0.05) for the knowledge management applications on innovations in the ministry of Planning and International Cooperation

Summary

Introduction

The importance of the relationship between innovation and knowledge management applications is due to how these relationships affect the formulation of management strategies. Each company has basic functions, namely: production and development of products and services This development allows the organization to grow and develop, as well as create knowledge and develop individuals. According to the model presented by Nonaka and Takeuchi (1995), the main objective of the process of knowledge management is to transform the tacit knowledge to explicit knowledge and vice versa. There is another purpose for the knowledge management applications that lies in strengthening the capacity of employees to re-establish the value-added knowledge, and increasing intellectual assets of the organization through collaboration with www.ccsenet.org/ijbm
