| description | Activities relating to knowledge sharing in education institutions is getting popular these days. University and college can practice knowledge sharing through initiatives like giving rewards to motivate students to share knowledge. Students who develop the knowledge sharing habit tend to carry the habit to their future workplace. Organisations need employees who are willing to share knowledge to gain competitive advantage and reduce training costs.
Thus, the objective of this study is to identify factors affecting the knowledge sharing behaviour of students in higher education institutions. Quantitative research is employed by testing theoretical and hypotheses using a sample size of 100 respondents. PLS software is used for statistical analysis after collecting data. The findings show that extrinsic motivation, intrinsic motivation and organisational culture have significant impact on knowledge sharing behaviour, while interpersonal trust has no impact on the latter. Hence, authorities of university and college are recommended to use different motivators to encourage students to participate in knowledge sharing. For example, university and college can provide scholarships for extrinsically motivated students to share knowledge. |
