Abstract

Knowledge management (KM) is very important in the business world of today. The Taiwanese government has recognized the importance of KM in helping small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to innovate through both their internal core competencies and external resources. This study combines the concept of social capital and motivation–opportunity–ability models by both social and technological dimensions to investigate the human factors that characterize knowledge sharing and the motivational elements that can encourage investment in it. In addition, this study also proposes some possible perspective suggestions for implementing KM initiatives to reinvigorate Taiwanese SMEs. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
