Organizational Knowledge Creation Theory: Evolutionary Paths and Future Advances
回顾组织知识创造理论的核心要素，梳理过去15年学术研究的演化路径，并指出未来研究方向，适合组织学习与知识管理领域的研究者参考。
Organizational knowledge creation is the process of making available and amplifying knowledge created by individuals as well as crystallizing and connecting it to an organization's knowledge system. In other words, what individuals come to know in their (work-)life benefits their colleagues and, eventually, the larger organization. The theory explaining this process — the organizational knowledge creation theory — has developed rapidly in academia and been broadly diffused in management practice over the last 15 years. This article reviews the theory's central elements and identifies the evolving paths taken by academic work that uses the theory as a point of departure. The article furthermore proposes areas in which future research can advance the theory of organizational knowledge creation.
