چکیده
Companies focus on knowledge management initiatives to fully derive business value from their employees’ knowledge. However, they emphasize individual or organizational knowledge sharing processes leaving out the team focus. As many companies organize their processes around projects, knowledge sharing between teams becomes vital to ensure organization-wide learning. This study focuses on cultural elements that ensure that knowledge is shared across project boundaries. Therefore, an exploratory, qualitative study provides results that indicate that three manifestations and six values foster knowledge sharing across boundaries. These results are tested quantitatively (by means of structural equation modelling) in a broader setting. 1 Corresponding author
