Knowledge management mechanisms within the SECI model
| Resumo: | Knowledge management mechanisms include the creation and sharing of knowledge, often addressing the conversion of tacit into explicit knowledge. When selecting the knowledge management mechanisms to adopt the firm will favour a particular mode of knowledge conversion. The main objective of this paper is to analyse mechanisms of knowledge management associated to the modes of knowledge conversion proposed by Nonaka [1994]. The research method adopted consisted of a multiple case study in four firms acting in Portugal. Data was collected by means of interviews and subsequent content analysis was preformed. Research findings show an association between mechanisms of knowledge management and modes of knowledge conversion. This study may serve as a guide for firms when choosing which knowledge management mechanisms to adopt. Limitations are presented at the end of the paper, as well as clear invitations for future work. |
