Abstract

In today’s information-based economy, knowledge is considered as a critical and effective resource for assisting businesses in establishing departmental synergies, accelerating innovation, providing value to customers, and increasing revenue through market growth. Knowledge sharing behavior is defined as individual behavior that pertains to the exchange of information, experience, ideas, and skills with other individuals or groups of people inside an organization in order to enhance the company’s sustainability. The purpose of this study is to analyze and obtain empirical evidence of the factors that influence knowledge sharing behavior, which consists of intention to share knowledge, knowledge sharing self-efficacy and enjoyment in helping others by 297 middle managers in a bank setting. This research is an explanatory research that focuses on the causal relationship among variables. The data were collected through a questionnaire survey and were then analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the Analysis of Moment Structure (AMOS) program. The results of this study show that knowledge sharing self-efficacy and enjoyment in helping others have positive and significant effect on intention to share knowledge. Furthermore, knowledge sharing self-efficacy, enjoyment in helping others and intention to share knowledge have positive and significant effect on knowledge sharing behavior. The mediation role of intention to share knowledge is also proven to be significant.
