Knowledge sharing, innovation and firm performance
Zhining Wang,Nianxin Wang +1 more
TL;DR: This study investigates the quantitative relationship between knowledge sharing, innovation and performance and develops a research model positing that knowledge sharing not only have positive relationship with performance directly but also influence innovation which in turn contributes to firm performance.

Knowledge sharing, intellectual capital and firm performance
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the impact of knowledge sharing on firm performance and the mediating role of intellectual capital (IC) and found that tacit knowledge sharing significantly contributes to all three components of IC, namely human, structural and relational capital, while explicit KS only has a significant influence on human and structural capital.

Effect of just-in-time purchasing relationships on organizational design, purchasing department configuration, and firm performance
Richard Germain,Cornelia Droge +1 more
TL;DR: The results of a study of 200 U.S. manufacturers demonstrate that the effects of just-in-time (JIT) purchasing relationships are pervasive as mentioned in this paper, and organizational design changes as JIT purchasing increases, and the firm becomes more formalized in performance measurement, more integrated, and more specialized.
