Drucker’s knowledge-worker productivity theory and knowledge-based view of the firm theory are widely employed in many disciplines but there is little application of these theories in knowledge-based innovation among academic researchers. Therefore, this study intends to evaluate the effects of the knowledge management process on knowledge-based innovation alongside with mediating role of Malaysian academic researchers’ productivity during the Pandemic of COVID-19. Using a random sampling technique, data was collected from 382 academic researchers. Questionnaires were self-administered and data was analyzed via Smart PLS-SEM. Knowledge management process and knowledge workers’ productivity have a positive and significant relationship with the knowledge-based innovation among academic researchers during the Pandemic of COVID-19. In addition, knowledge workers’ productivity mediates the relationship between the knowledge management process (knowledge creation, knowledge acquisition, knowledge sharing, and knowledge utilization) and knowledge-based innovation during the Pandemic of COVID-19. Results have also directed knowledge sharing as the key factor in knowledge-based innovation and a stimulating task for management discipline around the world during the Pandemic of COVID-19. This study provides interesting insights on Malaysian academic researchers’ productivity by evaluating the effects of knowledge creation, acquisition, sharing, and application on the knowledge-based innovation among academic researchers during the Pandemic of COVID-19. These useful insights would enable policymakers to develop more influential educational strategies. By assimilating the literature of defined variables, the main contribution of this study is the evaluation of knowledge creation, acquisition, sharing, and utilization into knowledge-based innovation alongside the mediating role of knowledge workers productivity in the higher education sector of Malaysia during the Pandemic of COVID-19.

Given the reliance on knowledge-based resources over traditional assets, the professional context serves as a heightened environment in which to investigate knowledge sharing. Within legal practice, the success of a law firm is connected to the firm’s ability to leverage knowledge (Sherer, 1995), and this has led to a call for knowledge management to be a business imperative within legal practice (Parsons, 2004; Rusanow, 2003).

We are living in the age of an ever-changing knowledge-based society. Information, and most preferably knowledge, has been considered as a noteworthy resource for the development of any person, profession, institute, nation, and even all humanity on a larger scale. Knowledge sharing (KS) is a significant activity and an integral part of knowledge management. KS is substantial in building the capacity and learning development of library and information professionals. The aim of this article is to find out knowledge sharing practices among the library and information professionals working in different libraries in the Pakistani digital era. The study will be limited to the perceptual aspect of the issue, specifically from the respondents' opinions and their sentiments. Finally, the article highlights the role, skills and challenges for information professionals while sharing knowledge in the digital era of Pakistan.

Alih daya (outsourcing) sistem informasi atau sering kali disebut sebagai pengadaan sistem informasi dapat diartikan sebagai pengalihan sebagian atau seluruhnya fungsi sistem informasi dari sebuah organisasi kepada penyedia layanan eksternal, untuk memperoleh keuntungan ekonomi, teknologi dan strategis. Namun mendapatkan keuntungan dari outsourcing sistem informasi bukanlah hal yang mudah; terdapat beberapa faktor yang harus diperhatikan untuk mendapatkan keseluruhan keuntungan dari outsourcing sistem informasi, sehingga suatu organisasi dapat dikatakan berhasil dalam outsourcing sistem informasinya. Di lain pihak, penerapan Knowledge Management (KM) diartikan sebagai sebuah proses dari Knowledge Management yang disebut siklus pengetahuan (knowledge cycle), dimana terdapat kegiatan pembuatan (creation), penyebaran (sharing), dan penggunaan (application) pengetahuan didalamnya. Pada kebanyakan organisasi, KM dianggap sebagai faktor utama untuk memperoleh dan mendukung keunggulan bersaing. Selanjutnya, pengetahuan juga dianggap sebagai faktor sangat penting dalam keberhasilan outsourcing sistem informasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji hubungan antara penerapan Knowledge Management (knowledge creation, knowledge sharing, dan knowledge application) pada keberhasilan outsourcing sistem informasi melalui faktor penentu pengadaan sistem informasi (kualitas komunikasi dan kualitas kerjasama). Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan melibatkan 66 manajer proyek sistem informasi pada sektor telekomunikasi di Indonesia. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa knowledge application sebagai tahap akhir pada penerapan KM memberikan pengaruh signifikan terhadap kesuksesan outsourcing sistem informasi melalui kualitas komunikasi dan kualitas kerjasama. Pada akhirnya, menyediakan model penerapan knowledge management dapat digunakan sebagai salah satu panduan bagi organisasi dalam melakukan outsourcing sistem informasi untuk mencapai kesuksesan dan memperoleh keseluruhan keuntungan dari outsorcing sistem informasi tersebut.

The corporate significance of knowledge has already been proven on the basis of several research findings. Manufacturing companies play an important role in development of knowledge-based society. The added value provided by service companies is essential in knowledge creation. The success of knowledge sharing is influenced by many internal and external factors. The quality of services also depends on knowledge strategy of the company. We have focused primarily on the analysis of knowledge creation of businesses providing services in different cultures (sometimes with similar cultural features). We have analysed the corporate culture of knowledge-based organizations, as well as the corporate practice of knowledge supporting organizations in the Slovak-Hungarian border.

As the pace of todays world increases with advances in technology and globalization, the heat of rivalry and competition in the business world is also rising. It is a wake-up call for many firms that they can no longer just convince customers to buy whatever they sell. They have to understand their customers. Customer Relationship Management (CRM) can assist firms to know your customer and construct good relationships with customers. In order to know your customer and construct a good relationship, customer knowledge must be acquired and managed. However, this is no easy task since customer knowledge can be subjective and difficult to extract or manage. An approach is needed to acquire and manage customer knowledge. Knowledge management, including knowledge creation, can assist in terms of acquiring and managing customer knowledge. Knowledge management not only improves understanding of the customer, but also improves business process performance by enabling response to customer needs in a timely manner with better quality of service. Customer-Centric Knowledge Creation is the process for the creation of knowledge based on customer knowledge within the CRM contexts which are enterprise-wide, customer-centric, technology-driven, and cross-functional. The aims of this process are to assist organizations to gain more understanding of the customer, embedding customer knowledge into organization knowledge, and creating a customer-focused mindset in organizational members. In other words, it is to sustainably create knowledge focusing on customer knowledge in an organization.

In today's knowledge-based business, knowledge is the only source of competitive advantage for engineering industries. Knowledge sharing plays an important role in the success of knowledge management (KM). Knowledge sharing barriers (KSBs) become obstacles for KM to achieve the goals of the industries. In this paper, three categories of KSBs have been identified such as individual, organizational and technological. The main purpose of this research is to measure the effectiveness of individual, organizational and technological KSBs by the application of an analytical network process (ANP) framework which helps to the managers for taking decision to enhance the successful knowledge sharing in the engineering industries. An ANP framework has been developed with the help of identified determinants, dimensions and enablers to evaluate alternatives such as individual, organizational and technological KSBs. Results indicate that the organizational KSBs have the maximum effect on knowledge sharing followed by technological and individual KSBs.

The concept of knowledge management is rooted in cognitive psychology and organizational theory. Knowledge management is concerned with the creation, storage, and distribution of knowledge by groups, organizations, and communities. Two theoretical frameworks are instrumental in shaping the knowledge management discourse: organizational knowledge creation (Nonaka, 1994) and organizational knowledge (Spender, 1996). Widely cited in the literature is Ikujiro Nonaka’s (1994) explication of the epistemological and ontological dimensions of organizational knowledge creation. Michael Polanyi (1966), makes a distinction between tacit and explicit (codi- fied) knowledge in the epistemological dimension, whereas social interaction is the foundation of the ontological dimension. Over the years, the term knowledge management has been conflated with organizational learning and memory. Realizing that knowledge, memory, and learning are all interrelated, John-Christopher Spender (1996) proposed a knowledge-based theory of the firm. The knowledge-based theory of the firm is primarily concerned with the collective capabilities of generating, combining, and applying knowledge. Given the advances in computing and telecommunications technologies, scholars have considered how information technologies can be used strategically to facilitate knowledge management (Alavi & Leidner, 2001). For example, wikis, blogs, content management systems, and the like provide dynamic infrastructures that support the creation, transfer, and application of knowledge. More importantly, these tools enhance organizational memory that can subsequently be shared across time and space. However, a knowledge friendly culture (Davenport & Prusak, 1998) precedes an effective knowledge management program. The purpose of this article is to explore the challenges that arise in nonprofit settings, particularly the ways in which knowledge is stored and transmitted through an organization’s culture. We propose two key challenges that influence organizational culture: acceptance of change and leaders’ ability to develop a knowledge friendly culture. We conclude with a discussion on the role that these factors played in constraining a knowledge friendly culture in two case studies.
