| Summary: | Previous researchers have suggested building a supportive knowledge management culture to support knowledge sharing and creation. Although many studies have been conducted in this area, few have investigated the influence of specific dimensions of organizational culture, namely innovation and team orientation on knowledge sharing and creation. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate these relationships. Questionnaires were sent to 327 manufacturing firms in Johor that are listed in the Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers directory. Fifty eight usable returned questionnaires were received and analyzed using correlation and multiple regression. The results of the study supported the proposition that team orientation has a significant influence on knowledge sharing and creation, while the relationship between innovation orientation and knowledge sharing and creation was not supported. Practical implications were discussed. |
