  • 本研究旨在探討員工自我監控性及社會關係聯結強度之關係,進而探討其如何影響到組織內隱性知識分享,並藉由加入社會關係聯結強度以討論員工自我監控性是否影響組織內隱性知識分享,期以提供後續相關知識管理及人力資源管理相關基礎。
    本研究針對90位目前服務於研發、MIS部門或有參與特定專案的在職員工進行問卷調查。分析結果顯示,員工自我監控性正向影響社會關係聯結強度,但並沒有顯著影響組織內隱性知識分享行為,但控制住社會聯結強度後,員工自我監控性與組織內隱性知識分享行為有顯著負向影響。此外,員工間之社會關係聯結強度與組織內隱性知識分享行為有顯著正向影響。最後,文末也提供本研究相關討論及研究限制,並對管理實務及未來研究上提供建議。

    This study aims to bridge the gap of relationship between self-monitoring inclination of employees and social tie strength, and tends to find out further influence on tacit knowledge sharing in organization. By taking tie strength into account in the relationship between self-monitoring trait and tacit knowledge sharing in organization, this study offers microfoundation for future knowledge management and human resource management.
    Based on the questionnaire survey of 90 employees working in R&D, MIS department or engaging specific projects, the result shows there’s positive relationship between self-monitoring trait and tie strength, but there’s no direct significant relationship between self-monitoring and tacit knowledge sharing unless the impact of social tie strength is controlled. In the end, this study offers related discussion and points out the research limitation, the implication for practice and future research as well.
