“…Nonetheless, knowledge management could not have existed as a sole ingredient of success for every organization, but rather, the presence of substantial orientation towards a particular market is also a key factor. Thus, the concept of market orientation might be useful in the process of achieving a desired organizational outcome via information processing, market knowledge as well as industrial foresight (Al Badi, 2019;Supriatna, 2020). As noted by Webster et al (2018), a high level of market orientation is an indication that an organizational ability to achieve a certain performance threshold is present.…”

The role of knowledge management (KM) in the existence of Small Medium Enterprises (SME’s) has been an important aspect of entrepreneurship. However, to perform an SME may not merely rely on its knowledge but also on other aspects such as market orientation and product innovation. This study aims to contribute to the entrepreneurship literature in the context of emerging economies. This study can be classified as quantitative research by nature as the use of a survey to gather respondent data. About 211 samples of SMEs of the furniture cluster in East Java were obtained in this study. Thus, understanding that the focus on market orientation and innovation in SMEs has not fruitfully been exposed and explored enough in the context of emerging economies such as Indonesia. The result of this study indicated that KM is not a direct predictor of SME performance. This is an indication that the supremacy creation of SME performance could not depend heavily on KM but rather, other driving forces such as market orientation (MO) and product innovation (INNOV) are much more powerful drivers in crafting SME performances.

“…Knowledge sharing can lead to a number of valuable results, such as the creation of new knowledge (Ramjeawon and Rowley, 2018; Kmieciak, 2021), more efficient work (Dwivedi et al ., 2020), a higher level of innovation (Markovic and Bagherzadeh, 2018) and the reduction of redundant activities (Hu et al ., 2009). Also, sharing knowledge is thought to increase productivity by sparking new ideas, promoting growth and helping people improve their own skills and abilities (Supriatna, 2020).…”

PurposeThe COVID-19 pandemic showed that public bodies need to develop their services in an innovative way. However, as a result of numerous difficulties and barriers, employees in such agencies are hesitant to innovate. Knowledge sharing and an innovative culture are factors that can help raise innovation. However, empirical evidence is inadequate to demonstrate this claim, especially in the government sector. Thus, the aim of this study is to conduct an empirical analysis to study the impact of knowledge sharing and innovative culture on the service innovation of the United Arab Emirates’ (UAE's) government agencies.Design/methodology/approachThe data were obtained from government institutions in the UAE. The analyses were based on 193 responses retrieved from a survey questionnaire sent to 221 government agencies. The authors used structural equation modelling (SEM) and statistical package for the social sciences (SPSS) to test the proposed hypotheses and do a preliminary study analysis.FindingsThe findings indicate that knowledge sharing has a significant and positive effect on service innovation. The innovative culture also moderates the relationship between knowledge sharing and service innovation.Research limitations/implicationsThese results provide information that is useful to decision-makers and managers in government agencies by emphasising the importance of effective knowledge sharing and innovative culture in improving service innovation in these entities. These relationships amongst knowledge sharing, innovative culture and service innovation may provide a clue regarding how government agencies can promote knowledge sharing and innovative culture to sustain their innovation performance.Originality/valuePrivate-sector organisations are concerned about factors that enhance innovative activities as one of the factors of development, improvement and enhancement of competitive advantage. However, in government, especially in the UAE, research into the role played by innovation remains uncommon, particularly in the role of knowledge sharing and innovative culture in building service innovation. Because of this, it was important to do research on this topic to close the gap and provide evidence to back it up.

“…Knowledge sharing can also lead to igniting new ideas and assisting individuals in honing their own abilities and competencies (Supriatna, 2020; Kmieciak, 2021). A knowledge-based perspective emphasises the need for exchanging information with others to enhance one’s knowledge base.…”

Purpose There is an assumption that innovative culture is considered to contribute to improving human resource management (HRM) practices. However, very little is known about this topic as well as innovations within the context of the government sector. Based on that, this study aims to investigate, theoretically and empirically, the impact of innovative culture on HRM practices with the moderating role of knowledge sharing in this association. Design/methodology/approach The data was obtained from government agencies in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). This study used structural equation modelling to test the proposed hypotheses and SPSS to perform a preliminary analysis. Findings The findings show that innovative culture significantly and positively affects HRM practices. Moreover, knowledge sharing plays an important moderating role between innovative culture and HRM. Research limitations/implications The findings have several theoretical and practical implications. The study provides useful insights into the significance of innovative culture and knowledge sharing in stimulating HRM. The findings will help government agencies improve their employees’ capabilities by customising knowledge sharing and creating a culture that supports innovative activities within their agencies. Originality/value Private-sector organisations are concerned about factors that enhance innovative activities as one of the factors of development, improvement and enhancement of competitive advantage. However, in government, especially in the UAE, research into the part played by innovation remains uncommon, particularly into the role of knowledge sharing and innovative culture in enhancing HRM practices. To the best of the researchers’ knowledge, this is one of the pioneer studies to examine the impact of both innovative culture and knowledge sharing on HRM in a government environment context.
