Abstract: This paper examines knowledge sharing in business environments and cultures that are hostile to knowledge sharing. We focus on knowledge sharing as it relates to individual behavior and management as guiding basically willing individuals. We elaborate the dimensions related to knowledge hoarding, apprehension about failures, and the Not-Invented-Here syndrome by investigating their features in knowledge-sharing hostile environments. Empirically, we explore a context not widely covered by the Western management literature on knowledge sharing: we draw on the examples of six Russian companies, three with and three without Western ownership. In terms of action orientation, we suggest that in knowledge-sharing hostile environments management needs initially to force knowledge sharing in order to transform the hostility into a knowledge embracing culture. We outline concrete guidelines of how to overcome the specific barriers to knowledge sharing.

Abstract: Corporate venturing managers have the rule of thumb that only approximately one out of ten investments really pay of in financial measures. These low odds for success, of course, put extremely high expectations to the profit yielded from the few investments that become successful. In other words, the few successful investments carry the costs of many more investment decisions. It would obviously be attractive to improve the ability to "pick the winners". In this paper, we develop a conceptual framework for understanding how firms` involvement in establishing and nurturing the venture base (the idea creation phase) enhances their ability to select ventures. Keywords: Corporate venturing, venture base, selection, network. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7308 Files in this item: 1

Theoretical Foundations and Research OpportunitiesFoss, Nicolai; Husted, Kenneth; Michailova, Snejina; Pedersen, Torben (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: An under-researched issue in work within the "knowledge movement" is the relation between organizational issues and knowledge processes (i.e., sharing and creating knowledge). We argue that managers can shape formal organization structure and organization forms and can influence the more informal organizational practices in order to foster knowledge sharing and creation. Theoretically, we unfold this argument by relying on key ideas of organizational economics and organizational behaviour studies. We put forward a number of refutable propositions derived from this reasoning. Acknowledgments We are grateful to Anna Grandori for numerous excellent comments on an earlier draft. The standard disclaimer applies. Keywords: Knowledge creation, knowledge sharing, governance, organizational economics, organizational behavior.

Abstract: Abstract Not achieving the anticipated synergy effects in the post-acquisition integration context is a serious cause for the high acquisition failure rate. While existing studies on failures of acquisitions exist from economics, finance, strategy, organization theory, and human resources management, this paper applies insights from the knowledge-sharing literature. The paper establishes a conceptual link between obstacles in the post-acquisition integration processes and individual knowledge-sharing behavior as related to knowledge transmitters and knowledge receivers. We argue that such an angle offers important insights to explaining the high failure rate in acquisitions. Descriptors: post-acquisition integration, acquisition failure, individual knowledge-sharing behavior URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7319 Files in this item: 1

A Focus Group StudyHellström, Tomas; Husted, Kenneth (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper argues that knowledge mapping may provide a fruitful avenue for intellectual capital management in academic environments such as university departments. However, while some research has been conducted on knowledge mapping and intellectual capital management in the public sector, the university has so far not been directly considered for this type of management. The paper initially reviews the functions and techniques of knowledge mapping and assesses these in the light of academic demands. Secondly, the result of a focus group study is presented, where academic leaders were asked to reflect of the uses of knowledge mapping at their departments and institutes. Finally a number of suggestions are made as to the rationale and conduct of knowledge mapping in academe.
