Produktbeschreibung

This book investigated the relationship between knowledge creation and work environment. The main attempt of the book was to explore the factors that enhance or impede organizational knowledge creation. High performers created more knowledge than low performers; educational level did not make any difference in creating knowledge, middle managers created more knowledge than employees; employees with 5-10 years of work experience in the current type of job created more knowledge than those with 0-4 years of work experience; six work environment factors explained 51 percent of variance in knowledge creation, with Autonomy as the strongest predictor, followed by Supervisory Encouragement, Organizational Encouragement, Organizational Impediment, Performance Review Rating, and Work Group Support; and finally, stimulant work environment factors (Autonomy, Organizational Encouragement, Supervisory encouragement, and Work Group Support) showed positive significant relationships with knowledge creation, whereas obstacle work environment factors (Workload Pressures and Organizational Impediments) showed no negative relationships with knowledge creation.
