知识共享是提高组织创新能力的重要组成部分。对于小型组织来说,这一点尤为重要,因为它们需要高度的创新能力来支持组织的发展。为了支持内部知识共享,可以采取鼓励共享的激励措施。然而,对于如何利用激励措施来支持初创企业的知识共享,目前还没有明确的认识。因此,这篇文章旨在回答这个问题:激励措施如何用于支持创业组织中的知识共享?为了回答研究问题,在香港和日本进行了10次半结构化访谈。其中九次采访是与创始人进行的,一次是与一位专门从事激励创造的律师进行的。通过对访谈结果进行跨案例分析,发现是否需要激励取决于创始人对公司愿景的清晰程度、创始人对员工的看法以及员工对工作主题的积极性。通过分析,我们可以了解是否需要激励来鼓励知识共享,以及何时应该使用激励。研究结果还为未来的研究方向提供了指导,即随着组织的发展,激励措施的使用如何随着时间的推移而演变。
Knowledge sharing is an integral part for increasing the innovation capability of organizations. For small organizations, this is of particular importance, as they require a high innovation capability in order to support organizational growth. To support internal knowledge sharing, incentives encouraging sharing can be introduced. However, there is no clear understanding of how incentives should be used to support knowledge sharing in startups. Hence this article aims to answer the question: how can incentives be used to support knowledge sharing in startup organizations?To answer the research question, 10 semi-structured interviews with were carried out in Hong Kong and Japan. Nine of the interviews were carried out with founders and one was carried out with a lawyer who specializes in incentive creation. The interviews were then analyzed using cross-case analysis methodology.Results of the analysis show that the need for incentives depends on how clear the founder’s vision for the company is, how the founder views the employees and how motivated by the topic of work the employees are.The results give insight into whether incentives are needed to encourage knowledge sharing and when they should be used. The results also give future research directions into how incentive usage evolves over time as the organization starts to grow.
