“…They argued that an organization is not merely an information processing machine, but an entity that creates knowledge through action and interaction of tacit and explicit knowledge (Nonaka et al 1996). They also emphasized that the capability to continuously create new knowledge was more relevant than the simple stock of knowledge that a firm possesses at one point in time (Nonaka et al 2000).…”

In response to the concern regarding the evaluation of knowledge management initiatives, this study introduces the concept of 'knowledge creating capabilities'. This concept refers to the balance of the four knowledge creation modes proposed in the SECI Model by Nonaka and Takeuchi (1995). The relationship of this concept with corporate financial performance is explored using two financial indicators on small and medium Japanese enterprises from the manufacturing sector. The empirical evidence shows the positive association of knowledge creation capabilities with financial performance.

“…The rapid development of Information Technology in the late 1990s has accelerated the development of knowledge management, as can be seen from the works of many management writers (Sviokla, 1996;Nonaka, Umemoto and Senoo, 1996;Davenport, 1997;Alavi and Leidner, 1999). Information technology has been used as a knowledge creation tool (Nonaka et al, 1996); as a basis for information management ( Broadbent, 1998); for information systems (Alavi and Leidner, 1999); and for codification tools (Hansen, Nohria and Tierney, 1999).…”

This research study demonstrates the important of the knowledge creation process. It helps to demonstrate that knowledge management enablers, including learning and T-Shaped skills can promote organizational creativity and thus organizational performance. Therefore it can be argued that the best path for Malaysian SMEs to achieve organizational performance is through organizational creativity achieved through a knowledge creation process that involves knowledge enablers. Further, the imperatives of globalization mean that it is generally accepted that it is imperative for business organizations, particularly SMEs, to improve their performance, through knowledge management, in what has become a global knowledge economy. In fact, this feature provides both the background to and the rationale for this study.

“…Nonaka and his colleagues' theory of the knowledge creating firm dominates the field (e.g., Nonaka, 1991;Nonaka, 1994;Nonaka and Toyama, 2007;Nonaka et al, 1994;Nonaka et al, 1996;Nonaka and Konno, 1998: hereafter collectively referred to as the Dynamic theory of organizational knowledge creation). At the heart of this theory is the SECI model which explains knowledge creation as the outcome of a dynamic interaction between subjectivities and objectivities.…”
