Resumo: The past two decades have seen growing interest in knowledge management and the use of information technologies. However, it is not clear how the relation between IT competency and knowledge management works. This study provides a better understanding of that relation. Through an empirical study of 162 Spanish firms, the work finds that no direct relation exists between IT competency and knowledge management. Open organization and empowerment mediate the relation between IT competency and knowledge management processes. These findings reinforce a field that is of increasing interest to researchers, and which has seen only a limited number of empirical studies to date.

No entanto, não está claro como a relação entre as competências de TI e a gestão do conhecimento funciona. Este estudo fornece uma melhor compreensão dessa relação. Através de um estudo empírico de 162 empresas espanholas, o trabalho conclui que não existe relação direta entre as competências de TI e a gestão do conhecimento. Organização aberta e delegação de responsabilidade medeiam a relação entre as TI e os processos de competência de gestão do conhecimento. Estes resultados reforçam um campo que é de interesse crescente para os investigadores, e que viu apenas um número limitado de estudos empíricos até o momento.University of Algarve2013-05-29info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://tmstudies.net/index.php/ectms/article/view/555Revista Encontros Científicos - Tourism & Management Studies; v. 9 n. 1 (2013); 109-115Tourism & Management Studies; Vol. 9 N.º 1 (2013); 109-115Tourism & Management Studies; Vol. 9 No. 1 (2013); 109-115Revista Encontros Científicos - Tourism & Management Studies; Vol. 9 Núm. 1 (2013); 109-1152182-8466reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPenghttps://tmstudies.net/index.php/ectms/article/view/555https://tmstudies.net/index.php/ectms/article/view/555/951Copyright (c) 2016 Tourism & Management Studiesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPérez-López, SusanaJunquera, Beatriz2023-12-27T10:25:27Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/555Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T00:56:19.666885Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
