The Correlation between Individual Knowledge Capability and the Perceived Success of Knowledge Management Practice: An Empirical Study in Government BAS Organizations

This study investigates the correlation between individual knowledge capability and the perceived success of knowledge management (KM) practice. It provides preliminary evidence that knowledge creation capability may serve as a foundation for research into the perceived success of KM, especially in government BAS organizations. There are significant linearly positive influences between knowledge capability and the perceived success of KM practice and, in turn, knowledge identification and capture capability, knowledge sharing capability, knowledge creation capability, and the perceived success of KM practice. Respondents who were above 30 years of age in managerial positions positively augmented the relationship between knowledge creation capability and the perceived success of KM practice. There is no significant influence on the perceived success of KM practice from knowledge identification and capture capability and knowledge sharing capability.
