Abstract
Knowledge Management (KM), originated from the resource-based theory in economics, has drawn immense attentions from practitioners and researchers in many industries. Recently, KM has also been applied to construction industry, and there have been many discussions regarding how to implement certain information technologies that may facilitate knowledge accessibility. Surprising, there is few studies that address the most fundamental problem in KM: people may prefer not to share their own knowledge so as to preserve their personal values in the organization. Without the premise of each individual’s willingness to share knowledge, there will no valuable input for the IT system and, thus, no knowledge management at all.
Since the sharing of knowledge relates to the competitive and cooperative relationships between each member in an organization, we consider game theory a natural methodology to analyze such knowledge sharing problems. In this paper, a game-theory based model will be developed. This model will explain many problems about knowledge sharing, and effects of the incentives system. And then we will have a classification system of knowledge that evolves from the concept of model. Furthermore, try to provide some propositions for policymakers decide whether or how to promote KM in their own enterprises.
