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.
