| description | The paper analyses the moderating effects of demographics factors of organizational members on
the contributing factors of intention to be involved in Knowledge Management (KM) process;
knowledge creation and knowledge sharing. The KM processes were operationalized through
knowledge creation theory (SECI process). Data were collected from 313 executives in the Sri
Lankan Telecommunication Industry using self-administered questionnaires. Two KM enablers;
‘trust & collaboration’ and ‘ICT use and support for search and sharing’, and two individual
acceptance factors; ‘performance expectancy of KM’, and ‘effort expectancy of KM’ were
considered as contributing factors of intention to be involved in KM process. The study found that
gender moderates the relationship between ‘ICT use and support for search and sharing’,
‘performance expectancy of KM’ and intention to be involved in KM process. The findings suggest
that if the policy makers in the industry are planning to implement KM initiatives, they should
consider gender differences of the executives and the strategies should be formulated accordingly |
