This paper conceptualizes the theory-of-reasoned-action and attitude-to-behavior process model and integrates them into previous research. The target is to see whether social capital has any significant role in sharing of knowledge in organizations. To achieve the purpose, the researchers empirically tested 11 hypotheses (nine were put to validation as these hypotheses have already been tested in other settings while two were put to test for the first time) by employing confirmatory factor analysis as a statistical technique. Data for the study were collected from 114 faculty members of two universities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. The results validated the majority (8 out of the 9) of the previously tested hypotheses and evidence of the significant contribution of social networks and shared goals on an employee’s willingness of sharing knowledge. However, social trust has shown a significant contribution in the reverse direction which is very interesting and needs further in-depth exploration. Similarly, hypotheses 10 and 11, which were put to test for the first time, were not supported by the empirical data. As a whole, the results of this study warrant organizations that knowledge sharing is indisputable for remaining viable in the market. The results have also made this evident that employees are willing to share knowledge if organizations provide a more conducive atmosphere to affect knowledge sharing. The results also challenge the absoluteness of trust and demand organizations that could have negative results as well. The results have practical as well as theoretical implications. The study has some limitations as well.

In this study, corporate emotional memory, corporate reputation and knowledge sharing are discussed. The aim of the study is to examine the effect of corporate emotional memory on corporate reputation. The other aim of the study is to test the mediating role of knowledge sharing in the effect of corporate emotional memory on corporate reputation. In this study, quantitative research method was used and a questionnaire was used as a data collection tool. The sample of the study consisted of 331 administrative personnel working in textile enterprises. SPSS 24.0 software program was used to analyze the data of the study. In the analysis of the mediator variable effect, Hayes (2013)'s Process Macro SPSS plugin was used. The data were tested with frequency, validity and reliability, correlation and regression analyses. When the hypothesis test findings of the study are examined; it has been determined that the level of emotional experience, emotional experience storage, and emotional experience diffusion have a positive effect on corporate reputation. It has been determined that the level of emotional experience, emotional experience storage, and emotional experience diffusion have a positive effect on implicit knowledge sharing and explicit knowledge sharing. It has been determined that knowledge sharing has a partial mediating role in the positive effects of emotional experience level, emotional experience storage, and emotional experience diffusion on corporate reputation.

The present study examines whether business group affiliates engage in social capital and knowledge sharing relations with firms within their groups more than they do with peers outside the group. In addition, this study compares group affiliated and independent firms in terms of performance and innovation. Using survey data from 128 Turkish business group affiliated and independent manufacturing firms, findings indicate that while group firms' relations within and outside the group show significant differences in terms of tacit, explicit knowledge sharing and social capital in the form of trust, affiliated and independent firms do not differ in terms of performance, innovation and other characteristics, such as institutional support, organizational capital and absorptive capacity. This study contributes to the business group research by examining whether affiliation creates value for firms in an emerging economy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The main objective of this research was to examine the mediating role of prosocial motivation in the relationship between professional identification and knowledge sharing, as well as the moderating role of humble leadership. For this purpose, data were collected from 356 academic staff at Erzincan Binali Yıldırım University by survey method. These data were analyzed using SPSS 22, AMOS 23, and SPSS MACRO statistical programs. As a result of the analysis, it was discovered that there is a positive relationship between professional identification and knowledge sharing, and prosocial motivation has a partial mediating role in this relationship. In the context of the moderated mediation model, it was found humble leadership has a moderating role in the indirect effect of professional identification on knowledge sharing (through prosocial motivation). In the literature, no research has been found that examines the role of prosocial motivation as a mediator and humble leadership as a moderator in studies examining the relationship between professional identification and knowledge sharing. In this respect, it is expected that the results of the research will provide an important source and contribution to the literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In today's dynamic business world, knowledge is the most important organizational resource that contributes to an organization's sustainable competitive advantage. However, knowledge can only be used by the organization as long as employees are willing to share it. Knowledge sharing is a continuous and complex process of interaction between at least two parties. It can be viewed as a reciprocal process based on a psychological contract filled with mutual obligations that sets the terms and conditions of the employment relationship between employees and employers or organizations. The purpose of this research was to examine the impact of psychological contract types on knowledge sharing. Based on previous work, the psychological contract has been discussed in two basic dimensions as relational and transactional psychological contract. relational and operational psychological contracts. Knowledge sharing was examined in one dimension For this research, data were collected from 320 academicians working in Gaziantep University by survey method. The obtained data were evaluated with multiple regression analysis. The findings of the research shows that transactional psychological contract has a significant negative effect on knowledge sharing, but relational psychological contract has a significant positive effect on knowledge sharing.

Knowledge creation and knowledge sharing have gained increasing importance in today’s organizations. Accordingly, the interest in research examining knowledge sharing in recent years has also increased. One of the factors affecting knowledge sharing is culture. Although the relationship between culture and knowledge sharing has been examined in previous studies, the mechanisms through which this relationship occurs have yet to be clarified. Consequently, this study aims to investigate the serial mediation role of collective orientation and trust in co-workers on the relationship individualism and collectivism have with knowledge sharing in the academic context, one of the critical environments of knowledge creation and sharing. The study sample consists of 405 academicians from public and private universities in Turkey. The hypotheses of the research are tested using the Hayes (2013) PROCESS macro (version 3.4.1) with regard to two different serial mediation models. The findings reveal both individualism and collectivism to affect knowledge sharing through the serial mediation role of collective orientation and trust in co-workers. In other words, increases in academicians’ individualism decreases their collective orientation, which then decreases their trust in their co-workers and then their knowledge sharing behaviors. On the other hand, increases in academicians’ collectivism increases their collective orientation, followed by increases in their trust in their co-workers and, subsequently, their knowledge sharing. This study makes a considerable theoretical contribution to the literature by revealing the serial mediation role of collective orientation and trust in co-workers regarding the effect of cultural orientation on knowledge sharing. The practical implications of the study are able to underline the importance of considering cultural orientation in terms of efforts at improving knowledge sharing, teamwork, and interpersonal trust in organizations and accordingly planning organizational developmental activities and human resources practices. Lastly, the study discusses its limitations and presents suggestions for future studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

İşyeri dışlanmasının temel çalışan ve örgütsel sonuçlar üzerindeki zararlı etkisi giderek daha fazla ilgi görmektedir. İşyeri dışlanması başlangıçta bireylerin diğer çalışanlar tarafından dışlanması, görmezden gelinmesi veya göz ardı edilmesi olarak tanımlanmaktadır. İşyeri dışlanması yaygın görülen bir tür soğuk şiddettir. İşyerinde dışlandığını hisseden çalışanlar, örgüt için çok önemli olan bilgileri kendilerine saklamaktadırlar. Dışlanmış çalışanlar kendilerini daha az önemli hissedebileceklerinden sosyalleşme süreci, örgütsel vatandaşlık davranışı ve bilgi paylaşımı gibi ekstra rol davranışları sergilemekten kaçınabilmektedirler. Sessizlik olarak adlandırılan bu davranış kurumun rekabet avantajı elde etmesine önemli oranda ket vurabilmektedir. Örgütlerde yaygın bir iş yeri fenomeni olarak, bilgi saklama şirketlere ciddi ekonomik kayıplara neden olabilmektedir. İşyeri ilişkilerinin, çalışanların bilgi paylaşma isteğini artırmada önemli bir rol oynadığı göz önüne alındığında, mevcut makale işyeri dışlanması ve bilgi paylaşımı arasındaki bağlantıyı incelemektedir. İşyeri dışlanması, bilgi paylaşımı ve örgütsel sessizlik üzerindeki etkiyi inceleyen az sayıda çalışma olması çalışmanın literatüre katkısını arttırmaktadır. Bu araştırma, işyeri dışlanmasının örgütleri iki yolla etkileme kapasitesine sahip olduğunu savunurken, bilgiyi gizlemek ve sessizlik davranışı sergilemek gibi iki perspektifi de birleştirmesiyle katkı sağlamaktadır. Bu araştırmanın istatistiksel popülasyonu Osmaniye’nin Kadirli ilçesinde faaliyet gösteren Organize Sanayi KOBİ çalışanlarını içermektedir. Pandemi şartlarını göz önüne alarak veriler internet üzerinden toplanmıştır. SPSS AMOS programı kullanılarak yapısal eşitlik modeli analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. İstatistiksel sonuçlar, işyeri dışlanmasının örgütsel sessizliği olumlu yönde etkilediğini gösterirken, bilgi paylaşımını da olumsuz yönde etkilediğini göstermektedir. Buna ek olarak işyeri dışlanması ve bilgi paylaşımı arasındaki ilişkide örgütsel sessizliğin aracı rolü doğrulanmıştır.

Creating, applying and sharing knowledge, constitute great importance for organizations in today's global business environment. In a business environment, in which competition is penetrated, managing and sharing knowledge properly within the organization is one of the requisiteness of making effective and sustainable innovations in order not to fall behind in the market. Thus, it can be assured that employees' sense of belonging to the organization is not destroyed and their organizational commitment is accrued. Correspondingly, in the event of employee turnover it can be assured that they will not trespass on the knowledge that they have previously acquired from the organization. In this sense, knowledge management appears to be one of the most important qualifications of a leader and it can easily be observed that the leadership style a leader holds has divergent effects on organizational performance along with knowledge management. The purpose of this study is to reveal which of the three different decision-making styles, defined as "autocratic", "democratic" and "sharing", are adopted and applied by the leaders, employees' attitude towards knowledge sharing in accordance with the leader's leadership style and the effects of the mentioned styles on organizational performance. In this sense, Fiedler's Contingency Theory and Vroom-Jago Decision-Making Model of Leadership are used as baseline. The research is conducted in organizations that are active in textile sector, in city of Bursa. According to the results, there is a statistically significant relationship between leadership decision making models and employees' knowledge sharing within the organization. There is a statistically negative effect of sharing leadership on formal knowledge sharing while there is a statistically significant and negative effect of autocratic leadership style on compulsory knowledge sharing. In addition, there is a statistically significant and positive effect of sharing leadership style on compulsory knowledge sharing. It has also been found out that there is statistically negative effect of democratic leadership style on incompany knowledge sharing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The main purpose of this study is to investigate whether there is a significant effect of the organisational culture percieved by supervisors to the organizational ambidexterity. The results of the studies realised on enterprises showed that cultural tightness and cultural looseness perception influence the organizational ambidexterity. However, a meaningful relationship between the perception of organisational culture (tightness/ looseness culture) with the information sharing on the organizational level could not be detected. Besides, it isn’t found that the information sharing on the organisational level has a significant effect of the organizational ambidexterity. Therefore, it isn’t found that the information sharing on the organizational level has a moderating effect on the relationship between the perception of organizational culture and the organisational ambidexterity.
