One of the key global pressures of knowledge management practice is knowledge acquisition, creation, sharing, storing and dissemination. The global business is reflecting a throng of culture, leadership and cultural upbringings which warrant bringing into line consistent alterations in management of knowledge because of diversity of workforce in construction organization. Theoretically, the study predicts the empirical role of culture (managerial learning and trust) with reference to knowledge management process. This paper presents a knowledge management (KM) model that comprises a set of KM hypothesis model and measurement models for understanding and applying these KM models to boost the application of KM in the construction organization. 76 private construction organization was investigated with 323 questionnaire surveys. A hypothesized model of KM process and culture was tested using structural equation modelling approach and a proposed model was therefore developed. Likewise, all fit indices for KM process and factor loadings shows the significant impact of culture on KM process, leading to a thrifty model achievement. The study shows that culture demonstrated 0.73 significant influence on the knowledge management process. The analysis revealed that managerial learning and trust were key factors that impact positively on KM process within the construction organization under investigation.
Organizations are becoming more cognizant that transferring the supremacy of knowledge in business is precarious to attaining reasonable modifications. This research investigates the significant role of organizational leadership on knowledge transfer in the multinational construction organization in Nigeria. Thus, this research was based on the multinational construction organization as a result of their technological advancement on knowledge management, knowledge transfer and development process. The research study adopted empirically validated measures' variables and established a hypothetical framework that links organizational leadership with knowledge transfer variables. 220 survey questionnaires were distributed to knowledge workers of 35 multinational construction organization, and the research validated the framework with structural equation modeling (SEM). The factor's loadings for the variables measures were significant and Cronbash Alpha factors of 0.903 and 0.747 for organizational leadership and knowledge transfer respectively was achieved. The research finding display that organizational leadership demonstrated significant influence on knowledge transfer.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
