Resumo: This paper identifies the type and intensity of relationships that exist between strategic knowledge management (SKM) practices, innovation performance and organizational Performance. By doing so, it covers theoretical gaps about the analysis of these relationships in emerging countries. Data was collected from a sample composed by 127 Southern Brazilian firms and PLS-SEM was used for testing the hypotheses. The relevance of SKM practices for innovation and organizational performance is supported. The research has also shown the level of efficiency and use of each SKM practice. The findings allow Brazilian practitioners to identify those actions which stronger influence on innovativeness and performance. The results also have shown that Brazilian firms are focused on management of explicit knowledge, and there are some opportunities for improving performance if they focus more on tacit knowledge. The suggestions about priority practices and managing of tacit knowledge are relevant contributions to support managerial decisions for resource allocation oriented to improve innovation and performance.

Analisou-se uma amostra de 127 empresas do estado brasileiro de Santa Catarina e utilizou-se PLS-SEM para testar as hipóteses teóricas. Constatou-se que as práticas de gestão estratégica do conhecimento influenciam o desempenho inovador e o desempenho organizacional, e identificou-se o grau de eficiência e uso de cada prática. Evidenciou-se também que as empresas brasileiras focam sua gestão no conhecimento explícito, e que existem oportunidades de melhoria no seu desempenho quando elas focarem também na gestão do conhecimento tácito. A identificação das práticas prioritárias e as sugestões para gerenciar conhecimento tácito constituem contribuições relevantes para que os gestores das empresas brasileiras possam alocar seus recursos de forma eficiente para melhorar sua inovação e desempenho.FUCAPE Business Shool2019-05-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleArtigo revisado por paresapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://www.bbronline.com.br/index.php/bbr/article/view/52710.15728/bbr.2019.16.3.3Brazilian Business Review; Vol. 16 No. 3 (2019): May to June 2019; 239-254Brazilian Business Review; v. 16 n. 3 (2019): Maio a Junho de 2019; 239-2541808-23861807-734Xreponame:BBR.
