Abstract

Purpose

Mindfulness is the human ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we're doing. This study explores on the impact of mindfulness on different elements of knowledge management, knowledge creation, knowledge sharing and knowledge hiding.

Design/methodology/approach

The authors undertake an inductive reasoning approach whereby they try to generate themes from specific observations and conceptualize the theory of mindfulness and knowledge transfer.

Findings

This study finds out that mindfulness critically facilitates an open environment and enhances the clarity of thought which aids in effective knowledge creation. Such a realistic understanding about the present scenario encourages employees to share knowledge and equips them to collaborate and effectively work in teams. Surprisingly, this study also finds that mindfulness increases the result orientation to the extent that employees tried to hide knowledge from their co-workers targeting certain self-desired outcomes. In other words, similar to knowledge creation and knowledge sharing, mindfulness increases agenda-based knowledge hiding.

Originality/value

The theory of mindfulness and knowledge transfer states that mindfulness increases knowledge creation, knowledge sharing and agenda-based knowledge hiding.

真正的知识与增强能力的知识:心智与知识转移(TMKT)理论的概念化
目的正念是人类完全存在的能力,它能意识到我们在哪里以及我们在做什么。本研究探讨了正念对知识管理、知识创造、知识共享和知识隐藏等不同要素的影响。作者采用归纳推理的方法,试图从具体的观察中产生主题,并将正念和知识转移的理论概念化。研究结果本研究发现,正念关键性地促进了开放的环境,提高了思维的清晰度,有助于有效的知识创造。对当前形势的这种现实理解鼓励员工分享知识,并使他们具备团队协作和有效工作的能力。令人惊讶的是,本研究还发现,正念会增加结果导向,以至于员工试图向同事隐瞒知识,以达到某些自我期望的结果。换句话说,与知识创造和知识共享类似,正念会增加基于议程的知识隐藏。原创性/价值正念与知识转移理论指出,正念会增加知识创造、知识共享和基于议程的知识隐藏。
