Abstract
In today's times, knowledge management has emerged as a critical pursuit for organizations in preserving and enhancing their intellectual assets. Organizational culture stands out as a key determinant of success in this regard, underlining the need for organizations to enhance their knowledge management methods amidst rapid and unpredictable changes. This paper evaluates how various aspects of organizational culture such as Job dissatisfaction, Emphasis on rewards, lack of infrastructure, Performance Orientation, Inadequate technology, Support Defend, Silo mentality in knowledge, Innovation, and Stability affect organizational knowledge management success. The urgency of this research is underscored by the critical need for organizations to enhance their knowledge management strategies amidst rapid and unpredictable changes. What distinguishes this research is its innovative model, offering a quantitative and systematic approach to assessing the impact of organizational culture on knowledge management success through the TOPSIS to measure knowledge management success in ten government organizations in East Azerbaijan province, Iran, each with one hundred employees. In this study, questionnaires based on organizational culture characteristics were given to employees to collect quantitative data and also to assess the level of knowledge management, data were analyzed using the TOPSIS algorithm. The results of the study showed that Organization 3, where at least 50% of the employees responded positively to indicators related to the emphasis on rewards and performance orientation, had the highest level of success in knowledge management compared to other organizations.
