“…"Knowledge is usually defined as a justified belief that increases an entity's capacity to take effective action" [31]. There are currently high demands in the automotive industry and in the wider economy that require innovation in the industry, relying on contributions from different technological fields and more research and development alliances [20]. Knowledge sharing is not as easy as one would expect [21].…”

Knowledge dissemination, as part of the knowledge exchange process, is particularly challenging in any project environment due to the temporary nature of projects. Although several studies in the earlier literature studied the factors that influence knowledge exchange, very few examined them from the 'knowledge push' perspective. This study aims, therefore, to highlight the critical factors that impact knowledge dissemination in a project environment. This empirical research found ten critical factors, such as individual experience, trust, source credibility, shared understanding, motivation, and articulability. These individual factors seem to have a dominant influence on knowledge dissemination from the view point of the knowledge source. OPSOMMINGKennisverspreiding, as deel van die kennis uitruilproses, is besonders uitdagend in enige projek omgewing as gevolg van die tydelike aard van die projekte. Alhoewel verskeie studies in die literatuur die faktore wat kennis uitruiling beïnvloed, bestudeer het, is daar min studies wat dit vanuit ŉ "kennisuitstoot" perspektief oorweeg. Hierdie artikel lig dus om die kritiese faktore wat kennis verspreiding in ŉ projek omgewing beïnvloed, uit. Hierdie empiriese navorsing het tien faktore identifiseer, onder andere individuele ervaring, vertroue, bronbetroubaarheid, gedeelde verstaan, motivering en artikuleerbaarheid. Hierdie individuele faktore blyk om ŉ dominante invloed op die kennis verspreiding vanuit die oogpunt van kennisbron te hê.

Background: The complex, unique and temporary nature of projects makes project-to-project knowledge transfer challenging and has attracted attention from both practitioners and academic scholars. This challenging nature of project-to-project knowledge transfer led to the proliferation of a host of tools and instruments (so-called knowledge transfer mechanisms) in which little structure can be discovered making selection by (project) managers a difficult task.Aim: This article aims to deal with this unstructured proliferation of knowledge transfer mechanisms by empirically categorising these transfer mechanisms, thereby reducing the number of mechanisms to groups that share a common characteristic.Setting: The study takes stock of the wide range of knowledge transfer mechanisms available and analyses them in terms of specific characteristics (e.g. explicitness or reach).Methods: A multi-method approach is used in which a multi-level latent class analysis is applied on data collected via an expert panel.Results: Five categories of transfer mechanisms could be empirically established where these mechanisms showed common characteristics.Conclusion: The taxonomy developed will allow organisations and project managers to more efficiently select appropriate transfer mechanisms for use in project-to-project knowledge transfer.

How incentive affects knowledge transfer performance in corporate user community: The mediating roles of users' transfer willingness and ability

2022

Drawing on the theory of reasoned action and situated cognition, this paper analyzes the influence of community incentive on knowledge transfer performance by assuming that user willingness and ability mediate the relationship between community incentive and knowledge transfer performance. The empirical analysis of the data from 165 companies in China supported the study's hypotheses and community incentive not only had a directly positive effect on knowledge transfer performance but also played an indirect positive role through the mediating effect of users' willingness and ability. In addition, users' willingness and ability had a positively interactive role on knowledge transfer performance in community.
