| Summary: | The objective of this study is to propose a conceptual model that
blends the dimensions of knowledge management, information technology
capability, innovative culture and firm innovativeness into a single framework
for practitioners and academicians. In conceptualising the model, this study
reviewed a range of existing literature. The findings identified: 1) four
processes of knowledge management that represents the construct; 2)
information technology capability as a variable that mediates the relationship
between knowledge management and firm innovativeness; 3) innovative
culture as a variable that moderates the link between knowledge management
and information technology capability. The resulting conceptualisation is meant
for evaluating the potential strategic model for firms to implement information
technology capability and innovative culture. It is posited that the proposed
conceptual model, when implemented, would enable practitioners a better
understanding on factors that enhance firm innovativeness. |
