Resumo: The aim of this article is to analyze the multiple roles of socialization within the interorganizational transfer of tacit knowledge between a Brazilian multinational company (MNC) and its subsidiary located in a least developed country. In spite of advances of the literature on the transfer of knowledge within multinational companies (MNCs) and on the role of socialization in this process, two aspects – one theoretical, another empirical – have been neglected: (i) ineffability of tacit knowledge and (ii) transfer of knowledge to least developed countries with low absorptive capacity. We have carried out a case study about Cine Group, a Brazilian company in the media sector, which set up a subsidiary in Maputo (Mozambique) in 2009. Results have evidenced that due the ineffability of tacit knowledge and the context of low absorptive capacity of the subsidiary, socialization may have distinct roles, such as transfer of knowledge, conjoint learning, and behaviour change.

A despeito dos avanços da literatura sobre transferência de conhecimento em EMNs e sobre o papel da socialização nesse processo, dois aspectos – um conceitual e outro empírico – têm sido negligenciados: (i) a inefabilidade do conhecimento tácito e (ii) a transferência de conhecimento para países menos desenvolvidos caracterizados por baixa capacidade absortiva. Realizou-se o estudo de caso do Cine Group, empresa brasileira do setor de audiovisual que, em 2009, instalou uma subsidiária em Maputo (Moçambique). Os resultados evidenciam que, em razão da inefabilidade do conhecimento tácito e do contexto de baixa capacidade absortiva da subsidiária, a socialização pode ter papéis distintos, que vão da transferência de conhecimento à mudança comportamental, passando pela aprendizagem conjunta.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2018-08-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionMétodo de Estudo de Casoapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/adm/article/view/2175-8077.2018v20n51p5510.5007/2175-8077.2018v20n51p55Revista de Ciências da Administração; V.20 N.51 Agosto de 2018; 55-682175-80771516-3865reponame:Revista de Ciências da Administraçãoinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/adm/article/view/2175-8077.2018v20n51p55/pdfCopyright (c) 2018 Revista de Ciências da Administraçãoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDuarte, Roberto Gonzalezde Castro, José MárcioBorges, Renata Simões Guimarães2020-08-07T10:28:18Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/50890Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/admPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/adm/oairevista@cse.ufsc.br||mfpcris@gmail.com||rca.cse@contato.ufsc.br2175-80771516-3865opendoar:2020-08-07T10:28:18Revista de Ciências da Administração - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
