The e-government development in Spain still lacks in the employee perspective. This background is clearly visible in the educative public sector where the authors can found several online services to employees but can't find a complete employee portal. The implementation of such systems is an opportunity to embed knowledge management, as it's the core process in education, but it would imply a deep organizational change. Thus, it is crucial to determine the barriers that could potentially prevent their implementation. The study aims to establish the barriers that influence the intention of use of those employee portals. The researchers used structural equation modeling to conduct an empirical study based on a hybrid TAM-TPB model. The results have found evidence on the majority of the proposed hypothesis. The authors conclude the study with a set of recommendations for the developers that could help in avoiding the effects of such barriers.

Performance Dimension

Purpose This study aims to introduce adaptive performance as an organizational performance dimension and examine the possible dynamics between the dimensions of a learning organization and adaptive performance. Design/methodology/approach This study used a survey and applied factor analysis and structural equation modeling analysis. Findings The results supported adaptive performance as an organizational performance dimension. Also, the findings of this study empirically proved that perceived knowledge and adaptive performance mediate the positive relationship between a learning organization and perceived financial performance. Research limitations/implications In addition to the current Dimensions of a Learning Organization Questionnaire (DLOQ) studies, this study revealed that adaptive performance, one of the nonfinancial outcomes improved by learning, had a significant effect on financial performance. Also, this study provided evidence of the additional construct validity of the DLOQ, particularly its performance measures. Practical implications This study advises practitioners to take a close look at how learning and organization development activities improve organizational performance overall. Originality/value This study supported a claim that learning and organization development activities in organizations have a strong potential to induce variance in intangible performance.

Many studies have linked knowledge management and human resource development to create standardized services. However, the relationship between the two in the hospitality industry is still lacking as an object of research. The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence of knowledge management on the development of hospitality HR in South Sulawesi. This research uses a quantitative approach with inferential statistical analysis. This research was conducted in three selected districts, namely, Bone Regency, Soppeng Regency, and Wajo Regency, which were the research locus. The population in this study were all-star and non-star hotel employees in the three districts. The total sample is 200 hotel employees and respondents are selected using the accidental method. Data collection using a questionnaire that was built based on previous research. The data analysis technique uses descriptive analysis and Structural Equation Modeling, which is processed in Linear Structural Relation software (LISREL 8.5). The results indicated that there was a significant influence on the development of human resources in hospitality. This means that to improve the outcome of hospitality HR including education, training and the development of the hospitality industry is required to be able to maintain and maintain knowledge management through the implementation of job procedures, able to transfer personal knowledge and technological mastery. Knowledge management directly has a little positive and significant impact on employee performance, but simultaneously Knowledge Management has a very positive and significant effect on employee performance through HR development. This research implies that performance-based training and development and application of knowledge management should be carried out simultaneously in the hospitality industry to produce standardized services in each district.Keywords: Employee Performance; Human Resource Development; Knowledge Management; Linear; Structural Equation Modeling; and Structural Relation software.
