Purpose The aim of this paper is to propose a conceptual framework of knowledge sharing for Bangladesh’s business organizations. Design/methodology/approach On the basis of previous literature, this paper proposed a framework for knowledge sharing. Findings This paper identified organizational commitment as a potential mediator for the relationship between organizational factors (organizational culture, leadership and structure) and knowledge sharing. In this paper, top management support and information and communication technology (ICT) support are also proposed as potential moderators that can affect knowledge sharing. Research limitations/implications This paper has identified several organizational factors to predict knowledge sharing. Future research with empirical evidence will validate this conceptual framework. Practical implications This paper will help business managers to understand knowledge sharing from a different perspective. Propositions of organizational commitment as a potential mediator and top management support and ICT support as potential moderators will provide managers with a better understanding of employees’ knowledge sharing behavior. Originality/value This paper adopted the general model of workplace commitment and integrated with organizational factors (organizational culture, leadership, structure, top management support and ICT support) to understand knowledge sharing for the business organizations of Bangladesh.
This paper investigates the influence of organizational factors on affective commitment, exploring the moderating role of information and communication technology (ICT) on their relationships. The study is based on empirical findings administered on 200 managerial personnel using the PLS-SEM. Team orientation, transformational leadership, transactional leadership and decentralization have a direct influence on affective commitment. The theoretical framework presented in this study focused on the integrated effect of organizational factors on affective commitment along with the moderating effect of ICT ICT support moderates the relationship between team orientation and affective commitment. The findings would provide managers an understanding of the factors influencing affective commitment in Bangladesh’s service organizations. The results indicate that ICT can be an effective tool to strengthen teamwork and employee commitment. Evidence from this study would help managers to to formulate strategies accordingly and provide new knowledge to researchers to look further into this field.
Strategy implementation is considered as an essential part of strategic planning because it translates the chosen strategy into organizational action. Considering its high failure rates, substantial attention should be given to strategy implementation, especially in non-government organizations, as most past studies have focused on issues prevailing in profit-making entities and the public sector. Thus, this becomes the aim of this paper to investigate factors influencing strategy implementation in non-government organizations in Brunei. In order to answer the research aim, a structured survey was conducted, and both descriptive inference statistical analysis techniques were used to analyze the data. The study concludes that organizational structure and leadership have a strong relation to the strategy implementation in non-government organizations; it has also been revealed that organizational culture and external factors do not influence strategy implementation. Not only that the results of the study can validate previous research studies, but also they can help managers and practitioners to understand how the four variables identified in the study can influence strategy implementation within their organization.
This chapter discusses the relationship between organizational culture, structure, complexity of technology, and the success of technology transfer. Technology is one of the key competitive advantages of any organization and plays an important role in the success of both international and domestic firms. Technology can be transferred within the boundaries of an organization, outside of organizational boundaries with strategic partners and also across national boundaries. As it transcends national borders, difficulties in transferring technology are likely to increase. To overcome the difficulties, certain organizational culture could play an important role in the efficient transfer of technology in an organization. Besides culture, organizational structure could also play a major role to achieve technology transfer success. Furthermore, the complexity of technology can also affect the success of technology transfer.
