Teaching an Australian Aboriginal Knowledge Sharing Process
Experiential learning of other cultures not only provides knowledge of the protocols and values of a different culture, but also enables the learner to realize there are such differences. It is this awareness that enables us to better understand our own culture and how we communicate within and between cultures. We are using intelligent agents modelling cultural rituals, values and emotional responses within gaming environments to support the learning of cultural competency. In this chapter, we describe the development of cultural knowledge sharing processes. Starting with information sharing, in class role play and recorded material, we are expanding the interactions and scripting options to allow students to experience the conflicts felt by Aboriginal Australians within the mainstream culture. We analyse the different teaching methods and the suitability of the material.

Evaluation of Factors Determining the Efficiency of Knowledge Sharing Process in the Lithuanian National Defence System
Knowledge is becoming the source of exclusivity and a feature of uniqueness. Each organisation attempts to share relevant information at the right time and through the most convenient means to meet the needs of its clients and employees. When modernising the Lithuanian National Defence System, the need for qualified personnel able to share specific knowledge has been identified. In this sense, this paper aims to analyse the factors that influence sharing process in the Lithuanian National Defence System most, enhancing its efficiency. In order to determine and assess these factors, expert evaluation and multiple criteria assessment methods have been applied. The results show that scientists interpret factors influencing the efficiency of knowledge sharing process differently. The primary list of factors influencing the efficiency of knowledge sharing process was carried out of more than 60 factors, which were divided into three groups: individual, organisational and technological factors. In summary, individual and organisational factors are more significant to the efficiency of process compared to technological factors. Significant factors in the group of individual factors were benefits of the knowledge sharing perceived by employees, their practical experience and communication skills. Significant factors in the group of organisational factors influencing the process of efficiency were mechanisms of the employees' assessment, personnel fluctuation and its dynamic and influence on the process of knowledge sharing. Significant factors in the group of technical factors were adaptation of information technologies and possibilities of knowledge sharing process, visit to the database and accessibility of information technologies.

Knowledge Sharing Process, Innovation Capability and Innovation Performance: An Empirical Study
Abstract The knowledge sharing and innovation have been subject to many studies in the literature. The knowledge sharing and innovation are two important and interrelated subjects that need to be further explored to understand their dynamics and implications. Knowledge sharing has implication for innovation capability and innovation performance of the firms. Innovation capability also affects innovation performance of the firms. This study focuses on the knowledge sharing process and its impact on innovation capability and innovation performance of the firms. The research model along with hypotheses are developed from the literature and tested based on the data collected through a survey on companies in Kahramanmaras. The obtained data from the questionnaires are analyzed through Smart PLS 2.0 program. The results from the study partially confirm hypothesized the influence of knowledge sharing process on innovation capability of the firms. The effect of innovation capability on innovation performance constitutes another finding of this study. However, the hypothesized the influence of knowledge sharing process on innovation performance was not realized. Theoretical and practical implications of the study were discussed in the conclusion part of the study.

The impact of change readiness on the knowledge sharing process for professional service firms
Purpose The study aims to assess the influence of change readiness on the knowledge sharing process. This study proposes that readiness for knowledge sharing involves developing holistic understanding of the process through identification of individual and organisational readiness. Design/methodology/approach The study adopts a qualitative case study design involving three New Zealand professional service firms (PFSs) Using grounded theory analysis, categories and concepts of change readiness that shape the knowledge sharing process were identified. The linkages among these elements offer an explanation of how readiness for knowledge sharing is formed. Findings Findings show that beliefs regarding knowledge sharing and individual expertise determine individual readiness to share knowledge. Readiness for the process is escalated by instilling collective commitment for knowledge sharing. A conducive organisational context, which comprises communication, participation and learning, represents a firm's.

Strong or invisible hands? Managerial involvement in the knowledge sharing process of globally dispersed knowledge groups
This paper investigates factors affecting the effectiveness of knowledge sharing in globally dispersed expert groups in a professional service MNC. We specifically focus on possible moderating effects of managerial involvement on the relationships of dispersion and trust with the individual satisfaction with knowledge sharing within such groups. We test our hypotheses in the context of a large multinational software company. This paper contributes to a deeper understanding of how knowledge is shared in globally dispersed settings in the MNC and challenges traditional assumptions on the appropriate level of analysis in studies of knowledge flows within MNCs.

Understanding the knowledge sharing process among rural communities in Tanzania: A review of selected studies
The study investigated how knowledge sharing process takes place among communities in rural areas in Tanzania. Specifically, the study determined how knowledge was created; assessed how rural people shared knowledge; and evaluated the impacts of social cultural practices, individual and institutional factors on knowledge creation and sharing. The study also assessed how ICTs were used in knowledge creation and sharing among rural people. The study employed a meta analysis where studies on knowledge acquisition and sharing among rural people in Tanzania were critically analysed. The findings reveal that rural people created and shared knowledge in need for their day to day activities. Knowledge was created through observations, personal experiences and social interactions and shared mainly through discussions and conversations held on several occasions. Individual, institutional, social cultural practices and technological factors influenced the knowledge creation and sharing process. It was further established that rural people consulted some knowledge sources more and shared knowledge through formal and informal groups. Decisions on sources consulted were influenced by socio economic, demographic and geographical factors surrounding rural people. However, the poor link between the knowledge rich and knowledge poor units limited the knowledge sharing and creation processes. It is recommended that the link between units creating knowledge and those using it should be improved so that rural communities can easily acquire and share it. Because rural people depend on exogenous knowledge from other institutions, institutional knowledge creation and sharing capacities should be improved to enhance knowledge sharing in rural communities. Rural communities should try to eliminate the individual factors and social cultural practices hindering knowledge creation and sharing process. https:/doi.org/10.34105/j.kmel.2013.05.014
