| description | The purpose of the present study is to empirically test the relationship among knowledge assets,
such as explicit and tacit knowledge on SMEs’ innovative performance. Furthermore, the
contingent effects of speed, reliability and accuracy of knowledge transfer are also tested on the
relationship. In which the theoretical framework was used to explain the Nonaka’s theory of
knowledge creation and knowledge-based view theory. This is because the present study is
conducted to evaluate a direct relationship between knowledge assets on innovative performance.
Thus, the contingent effect of knowledge transfer on the aforementioned relationship was tested.
In order to achieve the study aims, the used of a quantitative study was employed via online
questionnaires sent to SMEs. Multiple regression and interaction effect tests were utilised using
SPSS25 software. The findings revealed three important outcomes. Firstly, knowledge assets
have positive relationship with innovative performance. Secondly, speed of knowledge transfer
positively influences knowledge assets and innovative performance relationship. Thirdly,
reliability and accuracy of knowledge transfer also positively influence knowledge assets and
innovative performance relationship. This result demonstrates that with the right management of
knowledge, especially in making sure that knowledge is transferred to the right people,
innovative performance especially in SMEs can be elevated. |
