Purpose – This study aims to explore deterrents to knowledge-sharing in pharmaceutical manufacturing. Effective knowledge-sharing is fundamental to stimulation of the process of knowledge absorption. The limited proximal communication between the employees in the pharmaceutical industry stifles their knowledge-sharing behaviour significantly. Design/methodology/approach – A cross-sectional case study, consisting of semi-structured interviews with managers and scientists, was conducted in a multinational pharmaceutical company in Australia. Respondents were asked to answer questions regarding their current knowledge-sharing practices and to identify organisational deterrents to knowledge-sharing. The data were condensed into themes according to the thematic analysis method. Findings – The pharmaceutical industry is extensively regulated and its excessive competitiveness is cultivating organisational reticence towards the development of a knowledge-sharing culture. Nine categories of deterrents to intra- (within) and inter-organisational (between organisations) knowledge-sharing have been identified. These categories include high cost of sharing knowledge, information technology limitations, knowledge-hiding, lack of socialisation, lack of trust culture, non-educational mindset, organisational politics, poor leadership and time pressure. Research limitations/implications – The population of this study consists of managers and practitioners working for a pharmaceutical company. Hence, the generalisability of the findings to other health-care settings is unknown. Practical implications – The findings have implications for leaders and managers who should be aware of these professional diversities, instigators as well as the ripple effects of limited knowledge-sharing to guide the organisation towards developing an optimal knowledge-sharing culture. Originality/value – A focussed investigation of knowledge-sharing behaviour within the pharmaceutical industry in Australia, considering the pressure applied to this industry over the past decade. This case study specifically focusses on the diversity of deterrents to knowledge-sharing in the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry.

Multiple Regression Model

Stock market is growing in Indonesia and has become an important source of financing for industry in the country. This is true for pharmaceutical industry and as such, predicting the stock price in this industry is deemed very important in making investment decision. It is therefore necessary to know variables that affect stock price in this industry, in particular those that can be easily acquired and have relationship with the stock price. The objective of the study then is to find such variables. It was conjectured that exchange rate and the Jakarta Composite Index were among such variables. A linear multiple regression model was utilized to test such hypothesis. The results indicated that exchange rate positively affects stock price with a magnitude of 0.105 points. Similarly, the Jakarta Composite Index also positively affects stock price with magnitude of 0.417 points. The reliability of this model in predicting the stock price was 63%. Therefore, it is recommended to consider these variables in predicting stock price of the pharmaceutical company, hence important indicators for investors to be considered in making decision whether to buy or not to buy.

Counterfeit Medicine

Notwithstanding Nigeria’s large Muslim population of 89.25 million citizens, very little research has been carried out in terms of addressing Halal needs in Nigeria. This qualitative case study reviewed the perspective of 32 respondents, (15 patients, 15 doctors and two pharmacists), in a medical centre in Abuja, Nigeria on their perceptions on and awareness of Halal pharmaceuticals. The interview data were collected through telephone interviews. Data analysis and findings were examined against the literature reviewed in this study. Findings concluded that there was a lack of awareness of Halal medicine products within Nigeria and that this was the primary reason why the respondents felt that there was a dearth of Halal pharmaceuticals. There were also secondary concerns from the patients about the risk of counterfeit medicine and the doctors were worried at the potential cost of providing Halal pharmaceutical options in case it deterred patients from buying the (Halal) medicaments prescribed. The pharmacists were supportive of Halal pharmaceuticals in principle but highlighted issues surrounding both the efficacy of alternatives and the effectiveness of some current ingredients that might be deemed unacceptable in Halal preparations.
